“Our Father in Heaven, hallowed be Your name...”

Father, You, O LORD are my strength and my song; you have become my salvation. You are my God, and I will praise you! (Exodus 15:2) I will proclaim your name. I will praise your greatness God! (Deuteronomy 13:3) You are King of all the earth; I will sing to you a psalm of praise. (Psalm 47:7) Praise be to you, Lord, for daily bearing my burdens. (Psalm 68:19) I will praise you God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In your great mercy you have given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead! (I Peter 1:3)

I am a sinner that is separated from you, O Holy God! (Romans 3:23) But, I can confess my sins, and you are faithful and just and will forgive my sins and purify me from all unrighteousness. (I John 1:9) I seek you Father with all my heart. (Jeremiah 29:13) Keep my mind focused on you and hear my prayers! (II Chronicles 7:14).

`` May`all`of`our`worship`services`bring`honor`to`You.``Strengthen``Dr.`Nelson`Price`as`he`preaches`Your`Word;`may`lives`be`radically`changed`and`relationships`restored.

`` May`the`glory`of`Your`presence`overflow`as`Brother`Scott,`the`Celebration`Choir`,`Orchestra`and`Handbell`Choir`lead`in`worship;`hide`them`behind`the`cross.

`` Thank`You`for`Children’s`Church`and`Choirs,`Youth`Nights`and`Journey`8:12`that`teaches`them`about`giving`You`center`stage`in`their`lives,`and`placing`their`focus`on`You.``May`they`experience`Your`presence`every`time`they`gather`for`worship.``Use`these`to`reach`the`unreached`students`of`Sevierville`and`surrounding`areas.

`` Help`the`Greeters,`Ushers`and`Welcome`Center`Attendants`reflect`Your`love`and`grace`as`people`enter`the`campus;``We`rely`upon`You`to`provide`all`the`space`needed`for`parking.

`` We`offer`praise`to`you`through`the`Drama`Ministry.``Lead`the`directors`as`they`seek`to`prepare`programs`that`make`scripture`relevant`to`others`without`sacrificing`scriptural`accuracy.

You, Father, are worthy of our praise:

Lord, let everything that has breath praise you! - Psalm 150

“…Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven…”

“…Give us today our daily bread…”

Lord, what do you desire for your kingdom? What is your will? You say that if we ask anything according to Your will then you hear us and we have whatever we have asked of you. (I John 5:14) I can think of no clearer command than to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything you have commanded us. (Matthew 28:19)

We pray that this guide will be used to supernaturally change your prayer life! Please continue to lift up the Prayer Ministry Committee as we seek to lead FBCS in being faithful in prayer. If you are interested in meeting needs as a prayer room intercessor or workroom assistant, please contact Lisa Pickens in the church office.
