The Lord is Our Banner

CELL PRAYER REQUESTS FOR 2007

Hi people,

here are the prayer requests of the various people that shared at cell yesterday (6/1/2007). For Hwee Cheng and Eugene, please blog your prayer requests, so that we can keep each other in prayer during this year. Lets really committ ourselves to prayer this year, and believe that God is going to move in a big way in our lives and the lives of our family, loved ones, and family in this year.

Well here goes:

Ruijie:

1. To learn to commit studies to God and learn to trust in Him (to work hard, but not to allow work to take the rightful place of God). Honour God 1st.
2. Trust in God in all things (Seek first the Kingdom of God and all these things shall be added unto you)

Ideas for Cell: For the cell to have Scripture Memory Verse every week.

Ling Ling:

1. To pray for salvation for family in 2007.
2. To spend more time in devotion and prayer with God.

Ideas for Cell: Time to do more witnessing for friends. To be used as an instrument by God to evangelise.

Sarah:

To pray that she would stop procrastinating and to act on what God has impressed on her life.

Amy:

1. Spend more time in devotion with God (then would naturally move towards sharing more with parents and friends stc when the relationship with God is right).
2. To set her priorities right in the year 2007.
3. That she'll be able to serve in Tanglin Halt. Please pray that she'll be able to leave early on Wednesday to reach Tanglin Halt on time.

Alvin:

1. To be able to finish reading the Biblein a year based on the timetable given by Canon.
2. Let go and Let God take control
3. Pray for God's calling in his life
4. Pray for him serving in the adult's ministry.

Jonathan:

1. Continue to pray for the salvation of parents (Pray that dad will be able to go for Canon's cell every fortnight and that mum will be able to come down for church every month)
2. To be the best that he can be at work for the Lord
3. To be "counter-culture" and not follow the world. To be an overcomer, rather than to be dictated by the ways of the world. To al seek God for God's calling in his life.
4. Opportunity to be a sower or a reaper in family and friend's life.
5. God will fill his heart first and foremost. No thing or person will take the number one place in his heart.
6. Go deeper in the bible in 2007, and that he would have more opportunities to do bible teaching.

Edmund:

1. To be more focused on prayer-evangelism. To be more consistent in prayer for family and friends.
2. To read the Bible in the whole year. To read a minimum of 4 pages per day, and to memorize a minimum of 2 verses per week.
3. To work hard at his job, but not to get too engrossed or addicted in the stock market.

Well, that's about it. Please remember to pray and reflect about more specific goals that you want God to work in for tyhis year, and we will come back to share again on 3 Feb 2007. In the meantime, let's continue pressing on towards being more Christlike, and to share his Good News with the world in whatever ways we can.

Shalom,
JONATHAN YOONG
