From Handbook to Prayer
Renewal
Teach me to number my days,
That I may gain a heart of wisdom. (Psalm 90:12)
May I let my eyes look straight ahead,
And fix my gaze straight before me.
May I ponder the path of my feet
So that all my ways will be established.
May I not turn to the right or to the left
But keep my foot from evil. (Proverbs 4:25–27)
Pause to add your own prayers for personal renewal.

Intercession
There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. And there are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all people. But to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. (1 Corinthians 12:4–7)
