Aug 4 - Jesus Christ, Our Cornerstone

TODAY'S FOCUS

Calvary does not belong to us. The church belongs to Jesus. He is the cornerstone who determines the direction, alignment, stability, and purpose of everything built upon Him.

TODAY WE CARRY BEFORE THE LORD

We pray for a greater love for God throughout our congregation. May knowing, worshiping, obeying, and delighting in Him become more important than what we hope He will give or do for us.

LISTEN AND RESPOND

Is Jesus truly determining the direction and alignment of my life?

What competes with wholehearted love for God in me?

How can love for God become more visible in my worship, choices, and service?

PRAYER

Lord Jesus, You are the cornerstone of this church. Align every ministry, leader, family, and individual with You. Forgive us where we have built around preferences, traditions, personalities, or plans rather than Your lordship. Deepen our love for You until knowing and obeying You matters more than comfort, success, or recognition. Be Lord over Calvary, its present, and its future. Lord, lead us.
