IPHC Day of Prayer on January 10, 2024
Under the theme Arise to Mission, the IPHC Global Day of Prayer on Wednesday, January 10th, combines two significant ancient Christian practices with modern technology and communications.
For several years we have learned how to pray by using Scripture as the foundation of our prayers. Many of us have renewed and expanded our understanding of prayer through reading the Bible and praying from passages that the Holy Spirit has impressed upon us.
Though the Apostle Paul calls us to “pray without ceasing,” (1 Thessalonians 5:17), Jews and Christians alike have found the discipline of praying at certain hours of the day to be an effective way of sanctifying time. Sometimes in Christian tradition this is called the Liturgy of the Hours. In Latin it is called Opus Dei, the “work of God.” The Psalmist wrote that “Seven times a day I praise You,” (Psalm 119:164), and Psalm 55:17 records, “Evening and morning and at noon I will pray, and cry aloud, and He shall hear my voice.” Acts 3:1 tells us that “Peter and John went up together to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour (3 PM).”
We are combining these two practices, praying Scripture and the Hours, for the IPHC Day of Prayer this January 10th. IPHC leaders will guide us as we pray for the globe.
