WE COME IN PRAYER: Heavenly Father, according to Your mercy You have blessed us and provided for us in countless ways. By Your Spirit, equip us to use the blessings of wealth You have given us as a means to worship You and to share the message of the Gospel with our neighbor. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
