STANDING IN THE GAP FOR THE CHURCH

Forty days of focussed prayer and fasting 20 June – 29 July

FAITH FOR A CHURCH, FAITH FOR A CITY

2 Chronicles 7:14 If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Eph:20-23 All this energy issues from Christ; God raised him from death and set him on a throne in deep heaven, in charge of running the universe, everything from galaxies to governments, no name and no power exempt from his rule. And not just for the time being, but forever. He is in charge of it all, has the final word on everything. At the center of all this, Christ rules the church. The church, you see, is not peripheral to the world; the world is peripheral to the church. The church is Christ's body, in which he speaks and acts, by which he fills everything with his presence.

Devotion - Day 36

The revelation of the Character of God through the ‘Mind Moulders’

The Arts (& Entertainment)
The arts reveal God as the Artist, the Potter, the Creator. The attribute of God that is revealed is beauty. God governs in this domain through the Law of Aesthetics.

Psalm 19:1-3
The heavens declare the glory of God; and the expanse proclaims His handiwork. Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. There is no language nor speech where their voice is not heard.

Pray for:
* Excellence of our music and worship
* Godly example of celebration of Life
* The wise integration of all forms of the art into worship celebrations
* The clear communication of the gospel through the arts
* The provision of gifted musicians, singers and dancers
* For the blessing on Doxa Deo partners involved in the arts in secular society
* The release of creativity in the church
* For Godly influence in this field
* For Doxa Deo sponsored musicals to be produced
