Welcome To 5am Prayer

5am

Our prayer point for the hour is for -

Christian Missionaries and Witnesses

 

Our Text for the hour is –

2 Corinthians 6:4 But in all things we commend ourselves as ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in distresses,

5 in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fastings;

6 by purity, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by sincere love,

7 by the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

8 by honor and dishonor, by evil report and good report; as deceivers, and yet true;

9 as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold we live; as chastened, and yet not killed;

10 as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.

 

Let's Ponder on –

By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going. If we can take the time to read long jokes, stories, etc., we should give the same respect to prayer. We should witness to the love of God in our daily lives and be ready to go out as missionaries to spread God's Word and bring His Kingdom of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.

 

Our Song for the hour is –

I, the Lord of sea and sky

I have heard my people cry

All who dwell in dark and sin

My hand will save

 

Here I am, Lord. Is it I, Lord?

I have heard you calling in the night

I will go, Lord, if you lead me

I will hold your people in my heart

 

I, who made the stars of night

I will make their darkness bright

Who will bear my light to them?

Whom shall I send?

 

Here I am, Lord. Is it I, Lord?

I have heard you calling in the night

I will go, Lord, if you lead me

I will hold your people in my heart

 

I, the Lord of snow and rain

I have borne my people's pain

I have wept for love of them

They turn away

Here I am, Lord. Is it I, Lord?

I have heard you calling in the night

I will go, Lord, if you lead me

I will hold your people in my heart

 

I will break their hearts of stone

Give them hearts for love alone

I will speak my words to them

Whom shall I send?

 

Here I am, Lord. Is it I, Lord?

I have heard you calling in the night

I will go, Lord, if you lead me

I will hold your people in my heart

 

I, the Lord of wind and flame

I will tend the poor and lame

I will set a feast for them

My hand will save

 

Here I am, Lord. Is it I, Lord?

I have heard you calling in the night

I will go, Lord, if you lead me

I will hold your people in my heart

 

Finest bread I will provide

'Til their hearts be satisfied

I will give my life to them

Whom shall I send?

 

Here I am, Lord. Is it I, Lord?

I have heard you calling in the night

I will go, Lord, if you lead me

I will hold your people in my heart

 

Here I Am, Lord
