As part of God’s Church we participated in the global prayer venture of Thy Kingdom Come earlier this year. This ran during the 11 days between Ascension and Pentecost….many months ago now!
Each Saturday at 12 noon we are continuing to ask and seek and knock on Heaven’s door…..’Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done’…..and to pray for up to 5 people we know to meet with Jesus and to experience God’s Kingdom reign in their lives.
This week we focus on the theme of SORRY as we pause to pray with others.
We are encouraged to take time to bring our words of confession to the LORD our God
We confess words said that we should not have said
We confess words not said that should have been said
We confess actions done that we should not have done
We confess actions not done that should have been done
We confess to Father God where we have gone our own way – and not His Kingdom will for us.
Have mercy we call out
In Jesus’ name….Amen
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Jesus.
Reading : MATTHEW 24 verses 1-14
Meditation : take time to consider these words this Saturday morning.
Good News preaching in bad times.
What is God saying to you today from His Word about future times?
Pray in response to the God of all tomorrows.
Looking again at verse 14 as you turn to prayer
O LORD
Our God
Mighty and Eternal One,
Receive our praise
Hear our prayers in these days
And keep us on the right path we ask
As you walk with us even this day
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
Midday
Pray the Prayer for the Month as your own midday prayer
Father God
You are preparing us for the coming of the new Heaven and the new Earth
The old will disappear
The new will come
Alpha and Omega
Beginning and End
You are our God and we are your children
Amen
Evening
Reading : read this passage again from MATTHEW 24
Reflect prayerfully on the words and images ….. and then Pray in response
Especially for others in need of hearing the Good News at this time
Spirit of the Living God, hear our evening prayers at the end of this day
And be with those we name before you.
Make us ever a people who look forward and upward we call out!
In Jesus’ saving name, Amen.
