Father,

We thank You, for You are good and Your love endures forever. Thank You for the salvation we have through Jesus Christ, for the forgiveness of our sins, and for the living hope we have because of His death and resurrection. Thank You that by Your grace You have adopted us as Your children and given us the privilege of knowing You.

Thank You for the gift and indwelling of Your Holy Spirit, who comforts, convicts, guides, and transforms us. Thank You for Your living and powerful Word, which gives wisdom, reveals Christ, strengthens our faith, and leads us in truth. Thank You for the privilege of opening the Scriptures together with brothers and sisters around the world and seeing lives transformed through Your Word.

We are grateful that You invite us to participate in Your mission – locally and globally – making disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ and bearing witness to the gospel among all peoples. Thank You for every life You have changed, every church strengthened, every servant leader encouraged, and for the work You are doing across the nations through Community Bible Study.

Today, with thankful and humble hearts, we bring our prayers before You. Draw more people to Yourself. Open hearts to the gospel and raise up bold, faithful workers for the harvest. Strengthen Your Church, unite Your people in truth and love, and let the name of Jesus be known and exalted among every nation.

As we fast and pray, deepen our hunger for Your presence, increase our dependence upon You, and renew our faith for all that You desire to do in and through us.

We pray all these things in the powerful and precious name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
