As a church family at Liberton Kirk we have been revisiting the 11 themes from the Thy Kingdom Come prayer venture earlier in the year. We are pausing to do so together on a Saturday morning.
This morning we are invited to pause and pray…and offer ourselves…to God, to Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Take time with Him
and OFFER
yourself…body, mind and spirit
your time and monies
your possessions
your family
as you journey into Saturday and through this season of Advent
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit
Reading : ISAIAH 9 verse 6
‘Mighty God’
Meditation : take time to consider these two words this morning.
What do they mean for you?
What is God saying to you today about Himself?
And then Pray in response to what you read – to this God of ours.
In Jesus’ name
Amen and Amen!
Midday
Pray God’s blessing on those struggling in life at this time
God of grace and mercy hear our prayers and bless each and all real good we ask.
Evening
Reading : read these 2 words again from Isaiah 9
Reflect on this God, your God, our God…. and then Praise Him in your evening Prayer
LORD God, our God, receive our praise
For who You are!
For all you have done for us!
And as we give it all back to you
May you continue to reach and save people
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done across our world
In our community, in our city.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
