Prayers That Shape Tomorrow

We will not hide them from their descendants; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done. He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which he commanded our ancestors to teach their children, so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children. Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget his deeds but would keep his commands. – Psalm 78: 4-7

One of the greatest stresses in life is our concern about tomorrow. It seems like every day, there’s something new to worry about—the older we get, the more responsibilities and uncertainties pile up. But the truth is, tomorrow is coming, whether we’re ready or not.

Think about it: Have you ever left for a vacation without any preparation? Probably not. We make packing lists, check our routes, and plan ahead. Preparation is especially critical for something as challenging as backpacking into the mountains—where every detail matters. In the same way, shouldn’t we be preparing for our spiritual journeys into tomorrow?

This Sunday, our dynamic Pastor Mark Nsimbi will be delivering an inspiring sermon titled “Prayers That Shape Tomorrow.” What better way to prepare for what lies ahead than through powerful, intentional prayer? This message might just be the most important one you hear this year.

I’m reminded of my childhood in church, where loving members of our church family prayed fervently for the younger generation. These weren’t just words—they were prayers in action. They stood behind each child, supporting us with their faith, and we could see God moving in our lives. Those prayers shaped our tomorrows and gave us strength, hope, and direction.

This Sunday let’s make a choice to stop worrying about tomorrow and start praying for it. Imagine the peace and power we could experience if we replaced anxiety with faith-filled prayers.

Join us this Sunday at 10:30 a.m., in person or online. You won’t want to miss this message—it’s an opportunity to prepare for tomorrow in the best way possible.

Your friend for life,

 Pastor Tim White
