Daily Devotions for Sunday 3rd May, 2020

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit, on this Sunday

Reading : PSALM 138

Meditation : take time to consider this psalm this morning.
What is God saying to you today from his Word?
What are you encouraged and challenged by?

Pray in response to what you have read and considered

In Jesus’ name
Today this is my morning prayer
For I believe and trust in Him
Amen.

Midday
Pray the Lord’s Prayer as your midday prayer

Our Father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be Your Name.
Your kingdom come
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our sins
As we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory.
Now and for ever
Amen

Evening
Reading : read PSALM 138 again as your day ends
Reflect on the truths beyond the words and then Pray to this God …our God
Including for others known to you in need at this time

O Father, Son and Holy Spirit, hear our evening prayers
As we praise You for who You are
As we return our thanks to you for the blessings of this day.
As we name others in need before You.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Thy Kingdom Come #thanks

As a Church family we have been revisiting the 11 themes of the Thy Kingdom Come Prayer venture each Saturday morning.

This venture runs for the 11 days leading up to Pentecost and this year will be 21-31 May.

We will be continuing this through Saturdays in May at 12 noon and daily in the period 21st-31st.

Today we are encouraged to pause and pray – with words and songs of Thanks!

Give thanks with a grateful heart!

I will enter his gates with thanksgiving!

Thank God for who He is.
Thank Him for His faithfulness and love in this past week.
Thank Him for the gifts He has given you recently.
Thank Him for sending Jesus.
