Saturday Prayer Guide – October 17, 2020
Tabernacle Prayer: When the Israelites entered the Tabernacle, they passed through seven stations, following God’s instructions, to experience His presence. Today, even though we no longer need the physical Tabernacle to meet with God, these same steps can help us connect with Him. (see the 21 Days of Prayer Guide pages 15-25 for additional guidance)
