Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of New York City.

1. Since last time, we have crossed into the Bronx, our last borough of New York City. Pray for the Lord to use our prayers during the next couple of weeks to make an eternal difference in the lives of people living/working in this borough.
2. The shoe store above is Skechers, whose slogan is “Good for your feet. Good for the world.”  Scripture states that beautiful are the feet of those who bring the gospel, and the gospel is truly the best thing for the world. Pray for God to call many young men living in the Bronx to be preachers of His Word, and for them to be faithful to His call.
3. Over half of the Bronx’s population is Hispanic. Pray for a Hispanic family to trust Christ alone for salvation, that they may claim the promises contained in yesterday’s featured song, “Del Amor Divino.”

Revelation 4:11

Romans 8:38-39

For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Because worship is a vital component of prayer, TGP started the Sunday Songs Series last week. God’s children have always brought adoration to Him through music, and this will continue throughout eternity. Since the focus of TGP’s prayers is for Jesus to be known through Biblical worldwide evangelization and discipleship, it is appropriate that some of our featured songs be from other languages. Such is the case today with the Spanish hymn “Del Amor Divino” (“Of Divine Love”).

I first heard “Del Amor Divino” in 2004 in Lima, Peru. It immediately became my favorite Spanish song, not only because of the song’s melody, but also because of the depth of truth in the lyrics, which are taken from the last several verses of Romans 8. The secure foundation of God’s love for a believer cannot be over emphasized. It provides the confidence to face anything that happens in life and death.

Listen to “Del Amor Divino”:

Spanish lyrics and English translation:

1. Pray for Christians around the world to be encouraged today by the truth contained in “Del Amor Divino.”
2. Pray for lost people who are floundering through life without a solid foundation to trust Jesus, so that they, too, can know His love.
3. Pray for the top 100 enemies of Christianity to be led to repentance through the goodness of God (Rom. 2:4).

Revelation 4:11

Psalm 113:3

From the rising of the sun to its going down the LORD’s name is to be praised.

1. Robert F. Kennedy Bridge, NYC: Pray for the salvation of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
2. Harlem River Pathway, near the Teqball Table Location of Randall’s Island Park, NYC: Pray that many girls currently growing up in Harlem will have and take the opportunity to become women who love and trust God as Corrie ten Boom of Haarlem, Holland did.
3. Your Choice: Please pray for a request that you remember from the other locations featured this week:

2nd Ave. & E. 126th St., NYC

Robert F. Kennedy Bridge Trail, NYC

48th St., near 39th Ave., NYC

Sunday Songs Series: “Holy, Holy, Holy”

Thank you for praying!

Revelation 4:8

…And they do not rest day or night, saying: “Holy, holy holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come!”

This first Lord’s Day of March, TGP is excited to begin the Sunday Songs Series. For the next twelve Sunday posts, prayer requests will be drawn from a featured song of worship to Almighty God. A YouTube link to the song will be provided, and TGP team members are invited to follow the link to play the song. A suggested way to really let the song’s truths sink in is to start it playing and then close your eyes while listening, meditating on the words about our great God.

Our first song must of necessity reflect on the Lord’s arch attribute: absolute and perfect holiness. Isaiah 6 describes the unceasing three-fold declaration of God’s holiness that takes place before His throne. Almost 800 years later, John witnessed the same scene, and it continues even now.

Listen to “Holy, Holy, Holy”:

1. Pray that children of God around the world gathering to worship Him today will be reminded of His awesome holiness, and join in the eternal chorus of adoration to Him for it.
2. Pray for the Holy Spirit to have free reign in His convicting work in hearts of the lost as He shows them their need for right standing before a holy God, and for today to be the day of salvation for an individual from every people group in the world.
3. It has been said that, “Holiness is simply the reflection of the Master in the servant.”* Pray for Christians who have seen God’s holiness to yield to His transforming work in their lives.

Psalm 113:3

*”An Alphabet to Live By” (MBH)

2 Corinthians 12:9

And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 

Although photos are not normally a feature of TGP’s Saturday Morning Recap, today is an opportunity to provide a bird’s eye view of our virtual prayer walk in New York City. The cross marks our current location and completed prayer walk distance. Starting at the green flag in Manhattan, we went south to Staten Island, then over to Brooklyn, and are currently in Queens. We will continue walking north to the Bronx, looping at the end to finish our course at the black and white completion flag. We have walked 46.29 miles, which is 65% of our total slated distance of 71.02 miles. With only a third of our journey to go, let us press on in prayer, with earnest pleas to our Father that Jesus would be known and loved by those for whom we pray.

Truly, each of us is part of another prayer walk as well. The site of yours may be Chattanooga, Athens, Suffolk, Minot, Parachute, Fowler, Cambridge, or Bennington. Wherever your feet walk through the day is an opportunity for prayer and the light of God to shine. Thank you for your faithfulness in both prayer walks. May the name of the Lord be forever praised through each of our lives.

Isaiah 40:25

“To whom then will you liken Me,
Or to whom shall I be equal?” says the Holy One.

1. Special Request: Pray for the Lord to use passages such as Psalm 46 to comfort those who grieve the loss of Shiri, Ariel, and Kfir Bibas.
2. Brooklyn Bridge Promenade: An average of 32,000 pedestrians cross the Brooklyn Bridge every day. Pray for a Bible preaching church in Brooklyn to plan an outreach to the bridge’s pedestrians, and for it to be successful spiritually.

Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of New York City.

1. Although it’s not possible to see in the above screenshot, a 360° view of this intersection shows that at the time the photo was taken there were twelve pedestrians. Pray for those twelve people, wherever they are today, that the Lord will interject Himself into their lives and keep working in their hearts until they trust Him as Savior.
2. Translated into English, the center rectangular business sign above reads “New Century Flower Shop.” Pray for an unsaved lady who will receive flowers from that shop today, that she will also soon be introduced to the One Who made all things, and cares about her deeply.
3. To the north of Chinatown is Little Italy. The path of our prayer walk won’t intersect with Little Italy, but our third prayer request today is that an Italian living there will come to know the Father Who loved the world in such a way as to send His only begotten Son.

Isaiah 40:25

Luke 10:2

Then He said to them, “The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.“

1. Jinping, China: Hundreds of people had to be evacuated from their homes in the village of Jinping due to a landslide last Saturday. Pray for any of them who have previously received a gospel witness to remember what was shared, and respond in faith. Pray also for the Lord to give Christians opportunities to reach out to the evacuees with His love.
2. Belt Parkway, NYC: Pray for a Christian driving on Belt Parkway today to be filled with hope and joy as he walks in the Spirit.
