Are you concerned with the state of the world? The nation? Your state? Your city? Let’s begin with prayer to make a difference. Let’s pray intentionally for a change. The bible assures us that God hears every prayer and sees each tear. (2Kings 20:5) He hears the fervent prayer of his child. (James 5:15-16)
