Noon Prayer 09.14.2022

Fish Gate:

This gate represents the call on our lives as Christians to share the Gospel with others. We are ambassadors for Christ to the world. During Nehemiah’s time, this gate was used by fishermen to bring their catch into the city to be sold. The Fish Gate reminds us that we are to get involved in evangelism because we have been called to be “fishers of men”.

Matthew 4:18-20

As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” At once they left their nets and followed him.

  • Pray that God will teach you and other believers to become fishers of men and that we will be able to share the gospel not just with family and friends, but with those in your community.

  • Pray specifically for Sisterhood Night Out this Friday and also for National Back to Church Weekend this weekend.

Matthew 5:14-16

You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

  • Pray for your brothers and sisters of The Crossing Church that we would have the boldness and courage to step out and share the truth of the gospel.

  • Command the spirit of fear to leave our lives.

Matthew 9:37-38

Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”

  • Pray that God will continue to raise up and send out workers to reach the lost. Pray that God will empower us all with the gifts of the Spirit to equip us for the work of evangelism.
