Day 86: Prayer for the saints to live in the reality of the church as a house of prayer

Pray for the saints to live in the reality of the church, the Body of Christ, as a house of prayer that they may pray for the fulfillment of God’s desire, the carrying out of God’s will, and the accomplishment of God’s economy (Isa. 56:7; Mark 11:17a; Heb. 3:6; Matt. 6:9-10).

Isa. 56:7—Even these will I  cause to come to My holy mountain / And to rejoice in My house of prayer; / Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be acceptable upon My altar; / For My house will be called a house of prayer for all the peoples.

Mark 11:17a—And He taught and said to them, Is it not written, “My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations”?

Heb. 3:6—But Christ was faithful as a Son over His house, whose house we are if indeed we hold fast the boldness and the boast of hope firm to the end.

Matt. 6:9-10—You then pray in this way: Our Father who is in the heavens, Your name be sanctified; Your kingdom come; Your will be done, as in heaven, so also on earth.
