A Call to Prayer
Huffman Baptist Church
June 14-21, 2009
It is an HONOR to be able to speak to God. Anywhere, anytime, under any circumstances we can “approach the throne of grace with confidences so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.”(Hebrews 4:16)“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.”(Matthew 7:7,8)God’s power is available to you when you come to Him. Keep your heart tuned to Him each day and you will discern His voice. Challenge yourself to see God in the events, people, and thoughts that come your way.
Please use the following daily scriptures to focus your mind and your prayers concerning
Huffman Baptist Church, its members, its leadership and its ministry.
1. Continue to pray for the vision of our Church.
2. Pray that HBC will remain united and in harmony during this transition time.
3. Pray for the Personnel Committee as they consider recommendations for our interim period.
4. Pray for our Pastor Search Committee, that God will guide them to recommend a pastor
who will lead HBC to fulfill its vision.
5. Pray that God will go before us and prepare the person that He wants to serve as our new pastor.

Thirsting for God
Daily Prayer: O Lord, until we have given up something precious like food or water, or some other addiction we crave; then we cannot understand being “thirsty for You.” A craving, a longing to be with You – a thirst that refused to be quenched until satisfied. Quiet our restless souls with things only You can bring to our table. Lift us above dark moods and the shadow of sin, that we may find your will for our lives; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
