Weekly Prayer


Lord, bless and equip Your Body. Bless, protect, and guide everyone in the Jesus Fellowship Group,  their  friends, and family members. I pray that everyone would learn to (Ephesians 6:13) "take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm." Lord we know that (1Peter 4:7-8) "7 The end of all things [b]is near; therefore, be of sound judgment and sober spirit for the purpose of [c]prayer. 8 Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins." Help us to love one another, especially those that are blinded by the devil. Unite us in prayer and doing Your will to snatch others out of the hand of the enemy, and fill us with the confidence to know that nothing can happen outside of Your divine providence and control. Amen

Psalms 109:26-28


26 Help me, Lord my God; save me according to your unfailing love. 27 Let them know that it is your hand, that you, Lord, have done it. 28 While they curse, may you bless; may those who attack me be put to shame, but may your servant rejoice.

Romans 6:1-7


Dead to Sin, Alive in Christ


1 What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? 2 By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? 3 Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4 We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. 5 For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his. 6 For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with,[a] that we should no longer be slaves to sin— 7 because anyone who has died has been set free from sin.

Pray for Child Hope and their staff, where he is receiving care.

Praise Alert


Mr. Donald Wicklund passed away at Hackensack University Medical Center last Saturday. He had been admitted there after being missing for four days. He suffered many superficial injuries and a wound on his side from lying by his neighbor's shrubs and bushes in the heat and rain. Last Thursday, he was ministered to by the laying of hands by a group of Saints and he responded with an "Amen" and received Christ, as His Lord and Savior. To God be the glory. Continue to pray for his wife, children, family, and friends.

Jeanne has completed her 5th treatment. Let's believe and agree in faith, in the the name of Jesus, that she will get a clean bill of health!
