Our 48th
county to pray for in South Dakota is Miner County, with the city of
Howard being the county seat. We release the book of Galatians to Miner
County. Jesus is represented in the book of Galatians as our
liberator. The crucified Christ is the center of our freedom from the
law, from the curse of sin, and from our sinful nature. Apostle Paul
writes this forceful epistle to do away with the false gospel of works and
demonstrates the superiority of justification by faith (3:11). God raised
up Paul as the Moses of the Christian church to deliver them from the bondage
of legalism. Freedom in Christ means freedom to produce the fruits of
righteousness through a Spirit-led life-style. Freedom must not be used
"as an opportunity of the flesh, but through love serve one another"
(5:13). Chapter 5
of this book records the power, "Walk in the Spirit (5:16), and the results,
"the fruit of the Spirit" (5:22), of that freedom.
Father in the mighty name of Jesus, we release the sons of God of Your Kingdom across Miner County. "And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying out, "Abba, Father!" "Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ" (4:6-7).
"Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage" (5:1). Father we pray that the people and land of Miner County choose to live in Your liberty and freedom, and will not be entangled in any bondage that would stray them from Your presence. And that the people of Miner County walk in the spirit and not of the flesh.
Father in the mighty name of Jesus, we release the nine gifts of Your Spirit over Miner County. That your people would walk in Your love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (5:22). And cause them to fulfill the law in Your Love, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself" (5:14).
We release Freedom in Christ over Miner County!
