Romans 10 : 1 ( NKJV ), Paul shares these thoughts on prayer : “ Brethren , my heart ’ s desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they might be saved .”
Prayer is a powerful tool that allows us to connect with God . It helps us to understand God ’ s will . We are an evangelistic ministry focused on changing the world , one heart at a time . The way we do this is by sharing the love of Jesus Christ and inviting those we meet on the highways and byways to enter into a lifesaving relationship with Jesus Christ .
Sunday , March 7 , is CMA ’ s National Day of Prayer . I encourage you to set aside a special time during this day to join with the CMA Family around our nation to pray for :
• Vision and direction for our local chapters
• Wisdom for our state and national leadership
• Wisdom and vision for our Board of Directors
• The harvest that is before us
• God ’ s touch upon our land and leaders
God has placed an open door before us and is calling us to be an army who seeks His face and listens to His voice . Now , more than ever , people are open to the Gospel message as they are seeking a place of hope . There are many things that can sidetrack us . I encourage you to put your focus
on Jesus , refusing to get caught up in the distractions that surround us . Spend time in prayer and you will see Him direct your path .
This will be a great year as we follow Him ! He is the author and the finisher of our faith . Go with great expectations . CMA
John Sr and Becky Ogden , John is CEO / Chairman of the Board of Directors .
