Week 3 // Revive The House // Psalm 85
Our FORGIVENESS
“Restore us again, God our Savior.”
God’s desire is to do more than just release us from the penalty of sin. His desire is to restore us to our place in his family. Remember how the Prodigal Son was not only forgiven by his father, but restored to his place in the family. Pray today for those around you and for those at New CIty Church to live in the full restoration of their rights and responsibilities as God’s children!
How Do I Pray?

The Bible shows us that prayer will often include our thanksgiving, repentance, adoration, and requests. The following acronym using the word PRAY has given helpful direction to many people:
Praise: God first deserves our worship and thanks. We take joy in who He is, what He has done, and what He has promised to do.
Repent: We give time for God to search our hearts, careful to turn away from anything that might get in the way of a right relationship with Him.
Ask: Mindful of what we understand to be God’s will, we bring our requests to God, trusting that He is able to meet any need.
Yield: We remember that God is wiser than us, and so we submit our desires and requests to him and trust Him no matter what.
Philippians 4:6-7 “Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.”
