Please pray for Rocky, Jared, Kortney, and Brooke...and the rest of their team.
SOVEREIGN GOD,
Your cause for India, not their own, engages their hearts,
and we appeal to You with greatest freedom
that they might work to set up Your kingdom in every place where Satan reigns;
Glorify Yourself and we will rejoice,
we pray that to bring honour to Your name is their sole desire.
We adore You that You are God,
and we long that others know it, feel it,
and rejoice in this reality.
O that all men might love and praise You,
that You might have all glory from the intelligent world!
Let sinners be brought to You for Your dear name!
To the eye of human reason everything respecting conversion
is a mystery, as dark as midnight,
But You can accomplish great things;
the cause is Yours,
and it is to Your glory that men should be saved.
Lord, use them as You will,
do with them what You will;
but, O, promote Your cause,
let Your kingdom come,
let Your blessed interest be advanced in India!
O do bring in great numbers to Jesus!
Let them see that glorious day,
and give them the grasp for multitudes of souls;
Let them be willing to die to that end;
and while they live let them labour for You to the utmost of their strength, spending time profitably in this work,
both in health and in weakness.
It is Your cause and kingdom they long for, not their own.
O, Lord answer our request.
O that they might be a flame of fire in Your service,
always burning out in one continual blaze.
