21 Days of Prayer…Day 12

Today is special and important for my family. Today we celebrate the life of my father-in-law, Jerry Briggs. 93 years of life…and now he is with Jesus, the One he served throughout those years. You’re prayers are appreciated.

Now…to today’s personal prayer. I want to start with this:

“To live outside of God’s will puts us in danger; to live in His will makes us dangerous.”  Erwin McManus

I love that quote. I love it because you can sit here and think about it for quite a while.

So, let me ask you. Are you dangerous? Or…are you in danger?

I believe our church can be dangerous (in a good way). I believe we can do some serious life-changing work in our Valley. And in order to do that…we’ve got to be ALL IN!

Those who are ALL IN are marked with a daring kind of faith that believes God enough to simply DO what He says to do. Their lives are clearly positioned to OBEY.

Prayer Prompt: Dear Father, I’m done with my own agenda. I want to be ALL IN with YOU! Continue to show me my next step of obedience…even if it scares me. I don’t want to hold back and pass on to you my leftovers. I’m ready to put you FIRST in EVERY area of my life.

“Blessed are all who fear the Lord, who walk in obedience to him.”  (Psalm 128:1 NIV)
