THE Cell

hey everyone,

just a reminder, our cell's scheduled date for the 365 prayer chain will be this coming FRIDAY (12 DEC 08), 7 to 8pm. i've attached the list of prayer pointers. didnt get a chance to tell you guys about it yesterday, so please read this email carefully!

as some of you guysl might know, our church has been involved in this 24.365 prayer chain for some years. this year, COOS is in charge from 7-14 Dec 2008, and the Youth Division is assigned to be the prayer watchmen from 11-13 Dec. Each cell/ministry is assigned a 1-hour prayer slot.
for our cell, each of us will pray individually for about five minutes. using the prayer pointers to guide you, ask the Holy Spirit to guide you, to lead you to pray for whatever God has impressed upon your heart. you dont have to pray for every point listed on the guide. my prayer is really that each and every one of you will take this seriously, and set aside time to pray for our country and our church. for the benefit of those who didnt come for service just yesterday, pastor michael shared about faithfulness to God. faithfulness that will stand the test of time, of trials, of setbacks and of mockery. personally, it really spoke to me, because in the world we're leaving in today, its so easy to forget about God when we're with our friends, when we dont want to feel left out, or be seen as uncool. but we must see that ultimately, all the worldly things that we're striving for, or that we're obsessed with, will become nothing when we all go to heaven to be with our heavenly Father. and if we are able to be faithful in our walk with God, i really believe faithfulness will come naturally to us in other areas of our lives. even though this 365 prayer chain thing might seem a tad trivial, and you might think you're just one out of millions who are praying too, God sees each and every one of our hearts. and each and everyone of us count when we cry out fervently to God for our nation and our church.

yup, so heres the list of who prays at what time, try to follow it as best as you can. if you want to pray together (eg. through phone), feel free to (:

lastly, i wont be coming to church this sat, so we'll be combining with grace's cell, most probably in our same room, 214.

Father, i thank you for each and everyone whos in cell, i thank You for their faithfulness to You, and i thank You for Your faithfulness in their lives since the day they were born. I pray that even as they have their holidays now, it'll be a meaningful one, one filled with happiness and joy, and through events and happenings, they'll learn something new each time. I pray Your blessings and protection upon everyone, regardless of whether they're in sg or overseas, that You'll guard them from any harm and You'll keep them safe in Your loving hands. thank you Father, Your grace is sufficient for us, and we have nothing to fear. amen.

Jesus loves you alot (:
