If you were blessed to be at the NDP Prayer Summit last week-end, you know what an awesome time we had lifting our nation up to our Lord. The week-end was just an amazing experience from start to finish. However, the speaker that touched my heart the most was Major Jim Lively, USMC.
Major Lively has served 11 years of active duty and much of his time deployed to the Middle East. In sharing a few stories of his service (at times with tears in his eyes), Major Lively was able to give us picture of what he and the other military men and women are going through while serving overseas. He was quick to point out that he truly believes that the prayers of his mother (and others) protected him through very difficult situations and brought him home safely. Major Lively directed us to nine points to keep in mind when lifting our military up in prayer. Please keep them in mind during your quiet time and perhaps share them with your family, friends and churches so that we can provide a blanket of prayer over those who serve us all so well.
Prayer Points
***Courage
***Discipline
***Protection
***Patience
***Endurance
***Integrity
***Reconciliation
***Healing
***Families and Marriages
We invite you to watch the Military Page on this web site for an upcoming opportunity to hear an audio clip of Major Lively’s time with us.
