Let's Pray for Each Other

VBS is an outreach to the un-churched children. It’s purpose is not discipleship. Therefore, as in all evangelistic projects, prayer is so very vital.

As we serve our Lord, we must be aware that the Devil is real and he is out to get both the world and Christians. Therefore, when we serve in Ministry, we must be engaged in constant prayer and spiritual warfare.

Thank you for accepting the invitation to serve Jesus in this Children’s Ministry. From experience, we realize that as a VBS volunteer, you may have daily schedules that are full and there will be many moments when you wonder if you can really manage juggling your work, your family obligations, church duties and now VBS ……..

We still have many months ahead for preparation before the actual week starting the 30th November 2009.

Last minute matters may pop up although you have submitted your leave for VBS and duty at the workplace nags at your peace of mind. Some family or personal issue may arise causing you to weigh whether or not to withdraw your service at VBS etc etc etc………….

Yes, the Devil is constantly at work, tempting us and challenging us as he did our Lord Jesus Christ in Luke 4:5-7. We are involved in a spiritual battle as Christians and so we must arm ourselves with the armour of God and constantly pray together and for each other. We need to take the power and authority given to us by our Lord Jesus and enforce this authority in the name of Jesus. (Luke 10:17-20)

In the presence of the greatest responsibilities, in the worry of the smallest cares, in the perplexities of life’s moments of crisis, let’s all also help and bolster each other to rest in the security of God’s will.

Please use our VBS Blog to be the place where we may voice and share our concerns with one another. Let’s all be active and pray jointly for the matters raised here.

This place is for each and every one of us serving at VBS.

Please share with us your concerns that we may all pray together on the issues raised.

We ask that before you post your prayer needs and concern, that you would please take a moment to specially pray for the last person who posted.

For those of you with concerns but wish to remain anonymous, please email to VBS Committee at vbs.committee@gmail.com or speak to any VBS Committee member so that we may post your prayer needs for you.

Hands and hearts for Christ Jesus,

VBS Committee 2009
