Sermon Theme & Text for Sunday, January 18, 2009

The Presidential Inauguration is just around the corner. Now is a good time to begin to pray for our new president and his administration. God's people are called to pray for those in authority. How do we do that? What should direct our prayers for our leaders? This Sunday, January 18th, I will be preaching a message entitled, "Praying for Our President." Let's discover together how God would have us pray and serve in these times.

1 Timothy 2:1-8
1 Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, 2 for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time, 7 for which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle—I am speaking the truth in Christ and not lying—a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth. 8 I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

For His Glory!
Pastor Joe
