God tells us in the bible that we need to pray for all people, including our leaders and those in authority. Please join us in this prayer for the Birch Bay Ranch Association's Board of Directors and on-site Directors.
I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior…” 1 Timothy 2:1-3
Dear Lord,
Thank you so much for giving us Birch Bay Ranch. Thank you for using this place to impact so many people and to show us your love. As we enter this time of uncertainty, we would like to lift up the individuals who make up the Board of Directors for the Birch Bay Ranch Association.
We pray for wisdom and discernment as they make these important decisions. We pray that they will be open to hear the advice and counsel you have given them through your scriptures, professionals, friends, the Body of Christ and the conviction of the Holy Spirit. We pray that they will review all the information regarding this situation with clarity of mind and open hearts. We pray that you will guide them to take actions that are in line with your commandments and that bring you the glory. We also pray for their protection and that you guard their hearts throughout this process. Please cover them in your grace and love.
We also lift up the on-site Directors who have been in the front lines of this ministry for over 22 years. Thank you for placing them on your ranch, Lord, as they have truly blessed the ministry with their dedication and love. We pray that you also grant them the wisdom and discernment as they move through these changes at Birch Bay Ranch. We pray that support from the BBR community will come in floods and that under their leadership you will continue to allow Birch Bay Ranch to succeed. Give them comfort and confidence as they continue to follow you through a complicated situation, and please cover them with your grace and love.
In your Name,
Amen.
...and help us to accept the direction that you guide our leaders to...give us peace and remind us that YOU are in control!!
