Transform Me (1 of 3)
Series: 21 Days of Prayer
Josh Malone
Psalm 139:23-24
Today we kick off a new emphasis called 21 Days of Prayer. - It's my hope that these 21 days will help refocus and revitalize our prayer lives and individuals and corporately as a church. - Listen... spiritually healthy people and churches... are people and churches of prayer. Prayer is of TANTAMOUNT IMPORTANCE. - We can't overemphasize it. It's like spiritual breathing.
''When Billy Graham was asked about the most important steps in preparing for an evangelistic outreach, he always answered that there were three things that mattered most: Prayer, prayer and prayer.'' - Cliff Barrows
That's true of a God glorifying Christian life, it's true of a healthy church too.
The theme of these 21 Days will be ''Transformation.'' - Our vision as a church is to be a catalyst for gospel transformation in Orlando and beyond.
Each of the next three weeks has a specific transformation theme and then a specific topic correlating with that theme each day. When you leave today I want you to take one of the prayer sheets/cards with you. It has our themes and topics laid out along with the Scripture. The idea is you will read that Scripture and allow it to help spur your prayers for that the theme/topic.
Week 1 - Transform Me. (Us as individuals)
Week 2 - Transform Us. (Our church)
Week 3 - Transform the World. (The world around us... city, state, nation, neighbors)?
Today I want to talk about praying, ''God transform me.''
God protect me, provide for me, bless me, encourage me, help me... all of these are good to pray... but they are safe. Transformation is not safe. It shakes the status quo in us.
Transformation means what? Change. Change me to be more like Jesus, to be more the person you want me to be, to help me love and obey your word, your will.
2 Cor. 3:18- And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the s ...
