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 as we pray for 5 people we know to meet with Jesus!

Each Sunday at Midday we will re-visit one of the 11 daily themes.
This week it is PENTECOST – as we pause to offer our prayers – asking for God’s fresh outpouring of His Holy Spirit – in our lives – in our church – in our nation – in this world – so that Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven!

Spirit of the Living God
Fall afresh on me
Fall afresh on us
Spirit of the Living God
Break me, break us
Melt me, melt us
Mould me, mould us
Fill me, fill us
Use me, use us
Even today!
