Standing in the Gap

“I looked for someone among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found no one.”

Ezekiel 22:30

God is still looking for people who will stand in the gap—people who will intercede, serve, love, and live faithfully so that others can come to know Christ. Standing in the gap means being willing to step in where there’s a need, to pray where there’s a burden, and to fight spiritually for those who cannot fight for themselves.

This month, let’s ask ourselves: Where is God calling me to stand in the gap? It could be for your family, for a neighbor, for our church, for our nation, or for someone who doesn’t yet know Christ. 


Prayer Focus

This month, let’s focus our prayers on:

  • Families in our church who are struggling.
  • Our community leaders, that they may have wisdom.
  • The next generation, that they may encounter God’s truth.
  • Revival in our homes, our city, and our nation. 

Scripture

“And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land…” (Ezekiel 22:30)

“The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.” (James 5:16)

“Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.” (Galatians 6:2) 


Church News

Closing Thought

Standing in the gap is not always glamorous—it often happens in the secret place of prayer or in quiet acts of love. But heaven notices. Let’s be a church that stands strong, together, in the gap for others. 

Remember to Be The One,

Pastor Shannon
