Church in the Yampa Valley
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. — II Corinthians 3:17
Today is the National Day of Prayer.
Please join us as we pray our leaders, our government, our country and state, the church and our families and all of us become more aware of the Lord, and the love, life and freedom He brings us.

Before the day ends, a thank you to the Lord:
Thank You, O Lord that You are the mighty One
That You bless and keep us
That You know what we need before we know
That You bind up our wounds
That You cleanse us of our sins
That Your ear is attentive to our cries for help and peace and wisdom
That You are the perfect Father
Help us honor You
On Friday, the President called for a National Day of Prayer today.
How wonderful that he has put the focus where it needs to be — on our Savior:
As your President, I ask you to pray for the health and well-being of your fellow Americans and to remember that no problem is too big for God to handle. We should all take to heart the holy words found in 1 Peter 5:7: ‘Casting all your care upon him, for he careth for you.” Let us pray that all those affected by the virus will feel the presence of our Lord’s protection and love during this time. With God’s help, we will overcome this threat.'”
It is a fitting response from Christians to the possible devastation and the fear and panic that has ensued with regard to the Corona virus. The Lord intended His house to be a house of prayer:
Even those I will bring to My holy mountain
And make them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be acceptable on My altar; For My house will be called a house of prayer for all the peoples.”Isaiah 56:7
Many blessings of peace and joy to you and yours as you seek the Lord today and bask in His goodness and ability to heal us not just physically but most important, spiritually.
