Scripture for April: “Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.” John 5:14-15 (NKJV)
Quotation for April: "No erudition, no purity of diction, no width of mental outlook, no flowers of eloquence, no grace of person can atone for lack of fire. Prayer ascends by fire. Flame gives prayer access as well as wings, acceptance as well as energy. There is no incense without fire; no prayer without flame." E. M. Bounds (1835-1913)
Director’s Message: Welcome to the Cornerstone Conference prayer network. I am delighted that you have chosen to be part of this ministry. This is our first monthly newsletter. Each newsletter will contain a Bible verse and a quotation concerning prayer to bring our hearts and minds to a place of agreement. Following a brief update form me, the bottom half of the page will feature a daily prayer emphasis for that will allow hundreds of us to petition Heaven with the same request on the same day throughout the month. Just print this newsletter, fold it in half, and use it as a marker in your Bible or in your praying through the IPHC 1010 Link Prayer Guide.
Between the monthly newsletters, you will receive from me specific prayer requests forwarded from the iWIN office at the Global Ministry Center in Oklahoma City. Most of these concern urgent needs of IPHC pastors, missionaries, and their families. I will also pass on similar prayer requests to you concerning our conference ministers, church leaders, and their families. Before sending such a prayer need to me, however, please be sure to verify it, as well as confirming that the individual(s) involved agreed to have this request shared within our network. Blessings, Dan Woods
