Daily Devotions for Monday 21st February, 2022

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

Reading : ROMANS 15 verses 7-13

Meditation : take time to consider these words as your day starts.
Good News for Others
What do the words mean for you at this time?
Who have you shared the Good News of Jesus with recently?

Then Pause to Pray in response to the LORD our God

Pray your own words at the start of this day
Of praise and thanksgiving
Of confession and trust
For those on your list to meet with Jesus – even today

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on the work of Scripture Union in our land
God of grace and mercy and rich blessing, hear our prayers we ask.

Evening

Reading : read these verses again from ROMANS 15 verses 7-13
– in another version?
Reflect prayerfully on what you read and then pray to our God in response

Merciful and Faithful One, hear my evening prayer
As I thank you for your amazing saving grace to me
As I lay myself and this world before you at the end of today
As I name others before you I long to see meet with Jesus
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Sunday Evening Prayer with Others

As we step into a new week – with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from ROMANS chapter 15 verses 1-6

We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer

We REJOICE in the blessings He has given this day

We ASK for His presence, peace and strength – for ourselves and for others

We YIELD – say Yes – to His Kingdom ways for tomorrow

Pause to Pray for Others

On this Sunday of the month…as the nation and the world still wrestles with the virus and vaccine supplies…and other points of crisis and concern are before us in our nation and our world … you are invited to pause and continue to pray with others in our city and across the nation…to the LORD our God, our Father God.

You are encouraged to continue to pray for all those affected by the coronavirus – in our community, in our nation and in our world – and for all those in need on our Church Prayer List at this time – and for parts of the world in turmoil at this time

For family and friends and neighbours

For the Church in our world to be salt and light

For NHS and Care Home staff across the nation

For our country and world leaders at this time

Thy Kingdom Come at Midday

As a Church we were part of the global prayer venture – Thy Kingdom Come.

This prayer continues around the world!
Thy Kingdom Come 2022 prayer venture will be running 26 May – 5 June.

Each Sunday at Midday we will re-visit one of the 11 daily themes….and this time we revisit the children’s videos with the Cheeky Pandas with Bear Grylls!
This week it is the theme of PRAY FOR – as we are encouraged to offer our prayers for others to Father God
