Heavenly Father, thank You for the cooperation of all the many pastors, theologians, scientists, economists, and other scholars and leaders who have co-labored alongside the Cornwall Alliance in the nearly ten years since our founding.
These men and women have given generously of their time and expertise, without payment, writing articles for us, answering technical questions, speaking on our behalf for churches, schools, conferences, and radio talk shows, even testifying as expert witnesses before committees of the U.S. Congress and advising Executive staffers. They have upheld us in prayer and recommended our work to others. They have advised us regarding our vision, our mission, and our projects. They have worked hard together drafting and carefully revising major scholarly documents that provide the firm foundation in Scripture, science, and economics for the positions and priorities the Cornwall Alliance has taken on various issues of environment, economic development, the sanctity of human life, and other topics.
All of these people are committed to serving our Lord Jesus Christ, Father, and I pray that You will by Your Spirit strengthen them not only in their efforts on behalf of the Cornwall Alliance but also in their day-to-day service in the churches, universities, colleges, research centers, mission agencies, and other settings, and in their personal lives. May they draw ever nearer to You through prayer and the Scriptures. May they have Your strength in trials, Your comfort in grief, Your joy in service, Your grace in conflict. As branches in Christ the Vine, Father, may they experience Your loving pruning that causes them to bear more and more fruit every day, making them more and more like Jesus until that last day when they are fully conformed to His image.
Heavenly Father, please move Cornwall’s friends to lift these people up in prayer, too, especially those whom they know personally. In Jesus’ name, amen.
