Believing for a Move of God: A Prayer Guide From Gather25Àpẹrẹ
Pray Before All Things
Reflection
What a moment of grace and intimacy we witness here in the garden of Gethsemane, the beautiful language of “Abba Father.” We are aware of the deep anguish the Lord felt and the weight of what He was about to do, and yet He was obedient and committed Himself to the Father’s will. We are struck that even before Jesus moved, He prayed. Even before the greatest redemptive moment – Jesus’ journey to the cross that won our salvation – there was prayer. Before action comes Prayer!
Prayer
Lord, as we look at the task ahead, one that could seem daunting and almost impossible, we say “not our will but your will be done.” We commit ourselves to be obedient to you, to follow you, to go where you send us and to carry your light into the darkness.

As Gather25 approaches, we are excited to share a 21-day prayer guide to invite you to join us as we prepare our hearts, build our faith, and encourage one another to share Jesus. Each day, we will share Scripture, a thought and a prayer to help you prepare your heart to gather with Jesus followers around the world. Take time to read the provided Scripture aloud, pause, and reflect. End your time in prayer and make each day your own.
