We're in the first week of our month-long focus called cryout. We believe that we need to be

praying fervently, asking God to intervene in our world. Before we get to today's program,

I'd like to invite my friend Alejandra Sleiman to start our day in prayer for ourselves and our families.

Lord, we bless your name.

We come before you and we praise you and we thank you for how good you are.

How faithful you have been through every generation with your people.

We don't deserve it, Lord.

And still, your loving kindness and your tender mercies are

constant in our lives. We bless you, Lord. We bless you because you are the one that has forgiven

all of our iniquities. You are the one that has redeemed our life from destruction.

You are the one, Lord, that is just and merciful and gracious, slow to anger and plentious in

mercy. Thank you, Lord. Thank you that you've given us the opportunity through Jesus Christ to have access to communicate with you. And we praise you for your faithfulness, for your love, for your mercies that are new every single morning. And today, Lord, we want to bring before you our world and the different nations.

We want to bring before you the different needs, Lord, that are currently pressing in our minds and in

our hearts. And I just want to ask you, Lord, that you have mercy on us, that you help us see how powerful you are and how faithful you are.

And that no matter what circumstances we're facing today, we can say, God is faithful.

God is good. Thank you, Lord. In Jesus' name, amen. Amen. You know, I wonder what it would

look like for every neighborhood around the world to have homes that functioned as an embassy of the

king of heaven.

Here's Barbara Rainey.

If we are living intentionally as his chosen ambassadors, which is what he tells us that we are,

that's how we're going to make a difference in this world.
