As we journey through another week how is your rhythm of prayer and devotion going??
As you move towards Pentecost Sunday what is your expectation?

Many of us have more time now to pause and pray with God – for various reasons.
Some of us have started a prayer journal.
Some of us have been pausing to pray at Midday and in the Evening as part of our Daily Devotion together.

As a Church we have set aside a Tuesday each week and provided a place with space – the UPPER ROOM – a place for time-out. However in these times sadly it is not possible to open and run this space.

But…..our Tuesdays can still be an opportunity for time out…..with God

You are invited to pause at some time in your Tuesday tomorrow and be still with God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

You are encouraged to speak with Him….to listen to Him.…to receive from Him…

You are invited to share in the Midday Prayer and Evening Prayer that will be posted online at 12noon and 9pm. We are also encouraged to pray the Lord’s Prayer with others in our city and across our land at 5pm….focussing on all those affected by the coronavirus.

You are invited to pray with others in our Church family as we journey through this week together…..and to listen for what God is saying to us in these particular days….

And there is the THY KINGDOM COME prayer venture starting this Thursday, when many, many Christians will be asking, seeking and knocking on Heaven’s door with a particular sense of urgency in these days.

It’s a global prayer movement.

We want to see our family and friends meet with Jesus and experience the Kingdom of God in their lives.

We long to see the Church and our world experience afresh the Kingdom of God.

This year the venture runs 21st-31st May.

Each day there will a different theme to help us pray.
There will be videos posted daily from the TKC team on their website, YouTube and social media channels.

As a church, Liberton Kirk has registered to be a part of this.
You can too – at www.thykingdomcome.global

At 12 noon during the venture our Midday Prayer will be focussed on the daily theme.
On the 24th our Prayer Team will be meeting together to pray and chat.
On Tuesday 26th the Midday Upper Room time of prayer together will be available via Zoom and in the evening the Gathering for Prayer will focus on Thy Kingdom Come.

You are encouraged to be a part of this!
Need any more information…. please do contact TKC, Alastair, Susan or John.

A prayer from the TKC morning and evening prayer guide….

Almighty God,
your ascended Son has sent us into the world
to preach the good news of your kingdom:
inspire us with your Spirit
and fill our hearts with the fire of your love,
that all who hear your Word
may be drawn to you,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
