Thy Kingdom Come #help

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 HELP as we pause to pray with others.

We are encouraged to take time to bring our words to the LORD our God

We pray for those in need of God’s help at this time

We pray for those in need of God’s strength at this time

We pray for those in need of God’s wisdom at this time

We pray for those in need of God’s peace at this time

Have mercy we call out
In Jesus’ name….Amen
