HEART ISSUE: If you have a heart to serve God in ministry, God will open an opportunity for you, despite opposition. Will you believe Him to do it?
PRAYER FOCUS: Father, as Your daughters, we long for reassurance that we, too, have a right to experience Your kingdom without restrictions. We ask not that You give us another’s place but that You free us from the restraints of fear, intimidation and tradition so that we can faithfully take our place in the roles for which you’ve called and equipped us. Amen.
