Merciful Father, we know that You are our source for
all things. We declare that all of our needs (physical,
spiritual, and emotional) are supplied from Your
glorious riches which have been given to us in Christ
Jesus. Therefore, as a Church Family, we confess that
we are strengthened through Christ to meet the needs
of those who are in need of physical and spiritual
nourishment within our community. As a Church
Family, we will extend our reach into the global
community to reach those in foreign lands who need
access to clean water and nutritious food. We confess
that Jesus is the Bread of Life and whoever comes
to Him will never be hungry, and whoever believes
in Him will never be thirsty. Lord, we declare that
we will not just rely upon our government to meet
the needs of the poor and hungry. We will not
withhold good from those who deserve it when
it’s in our power to help them. We will not put off
until later what we can do right now. We commit
ourselves to give generously and faithfully. We will
guard our hearts to keep them tender and
compassionate by meditating on Your Word day
and night so that we can better discern how to help
others.

Ask the Holy Spirit to show you a person or person(s)
you can help today:

Holy Spirit, help us not to just think about our own
needs, but the needs of others around us. Teach us
the importance of sharing what we’ve received with
others who are in need. Strengthen us as we continue
looking for better, more effective ways to minister to
the needs of those in our community. Remind us of
