As we prepare for the retreat, we offer you a devotional prayer to help you as you prepare your heart and ask God to reveal Himself to you during these days.
We ask that you read, meditate, pray over, wrestle with and respond to these thoughts about our Savior.
Prayer is paramount to our retreat. Often times we think of prayer as some commonsense exercise that simply prepares us for God’s work. Prayer is the work. “It is the working of the miracle of redemption in us, which produces the miracle of redemption in others, through the power of God.” Devote yourself to earnest and expectant prayer, that we would encounter biblical community with one another, missional living in our world, and a deeper, fuller, intimacy with our Redeemer.
“Father, we seek you in these days. Anoint those that will lead us with a powerful outpouring of Your Spirit. Jesus, open our eyes to see you, and release those enslaved to destructive ways, mend shattered lives and breathe on those without hope. Lord, show us how to reach out and make you known to our community, our nation and our world. Send us far and wide with a passion for your name. Let these days be eternal, bearing fruit for Your name that lasts forever.”
