The ancient city of Philippi highly prized its status as a Roman colony. Many retired Roman soldiers called Philippi home. This is why it might have been shocking for some Christians in this city to read Paul's words:
"Our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ." (Phil. 3:20)
If you're a Christian, this statement is also true of you today.
The Lord's church is not tied to any earthly nation, and our allegiance is to be given to Him alone. This is precisely why we must pray for the country where God has placed us...who else will?
As we approach the presidential election season, we invite you to join your pastors in fasting and praying for spiritual renewal, God's guidance, and the leaders God has appointed to lead the country (Rom. 13:1-7).
Here's the plan:
Pray with us for at least 12 minutes at 12 noon
every Wednesday from September 11th to November 29th, 2024.
Your pastors will also fast every Wednesday from waking up until 2pm. We invite you to do the same.
