Daily Devotions for Monday 3rd January, 2022

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from the LORD God, the Eternal One

Reading : ROMANS chapter 3

Meditation : as we pause with God, we take time to consider these words as the day starts.
What is God saying to you today from His written Word?
What is your response?

Then take time to Pray in response

O LORD God,
Thank you
For Amazing grace
That saved a wretch like me
For loving the world so much
That you gave Your only Son
For Good News
For all
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on our City Council in 2022
O LORD, hear our prayers at this time of day and give wisdom and justice we ask.

Evening
Reading : read the verses again from ROMANS chapter 3 – in another version?
Reflect on their meaning for you and pray in response…
to this God we believe and trust in

O Living and True God, our heavenly Father, hear our evening prayers
As we pause to worship You for who You are
O forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sinned against us even today.
We ask
Pour out a blessing on those we name before You
Send saving grace to every corner of our world
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Sunday Evening Prayer with Others

As we step into a new week – with God – together

We PAUSE with Him in prayer

We REJOICE in the blessings He has given this day

We ASK for His presence, peace and strength in 2022 – for ourselves and for others

We YIELD – say Yes – to His Kingdom ways in the days and months to come

Pause to Pray for Others

On this particular Sunday…as the nation and the world wrestles with the new variant and vaccine supplies…and other points of crisis and concern… 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 pray for all those affected by the coronavirus – in our community, in our nation and in our world – and for parts of the world in turmoil at this time

For family and friends and neighbours

For the Church in our nation to be salt and light at this time

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!

Each Sunday at Midday we will re-visit one of the 11 daily themes….and this time we revisit the youth videos.
This week it is SILENCE – as we are encouraged to pause and be still with God

Daily Devotions for Sunday 2nd January, 2022

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

Reading : ROMANS chapter 2

Meditation : take time to pause with the Living God on this first Sunday morning of the new year and consider these words from the Bible.
What words/truths stay with you?

Pray in response to what you have read and considered
For others on your prayer list as well as yourself

In Jesus’ name
Today this is my morning prayer
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 ROMANS chapter 2 again as your day ends
Reflect on the truths beyond the words and then Pray to this God …our God

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.
Thy Kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
