Our Journey – Thy Kingdom Come

As we journey through the global prayer adventure of Thy Kingdom Come, until Pentecost Sunday 5th June, are you travelling with us?

At 8am each morning – a short daily reflection from members of our Prayer Ministry Team – on our YouTube channel, website and social media pages – on 11 various themes!

At 9am each morning – we have been invited to pause and pray for 5 friends, family, neighbours, colleagues to meet with Jesus and know God for themselves.

At 12 midday – we pause and listen/watch to the daily reflection from TKC – if you haven’t seen it already that day.
As well as the main videos there are videos for youth – and there are the Cheeky Pandas for young children!!

At 7pm each evening – we are invited to pause and consider the Prayer Journal page for that day.

At 9pm each evening – we pause and pray with others.

This Tuesday evening we gather in the Kirk to pray together….’Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.’
You are very welcome to join us 7.30-8.30pm

Maybe one or more will work for you each day.
Maybe not.
Don’t worry if not or you have other commitments….or other times suit you better.
God in His Kingdom ways understands!

From Thy Kingdom Come, as part of the commissioning…..
‘This Thursday marks the first of eleven days of Thy Kingdom Come from Ascension Day to Pentecost Sunday. Each year we are invited to join with tens of millions of Christians around the world, and across all denominations in praying specifically for five people we know personally to come to know more of God’s love in Jesus Christ, and to pray that the Holy Spirit will empower us to boldly witness to them of the love, hope and salvation we enjoy.

As we wait in silence,
make us ready for Your coming Spirit.

As we listen to Your word,
make us ready for Your coming Spirit.

As we worship You in majesty,
make us ready for Your coming Spirit.

As we long for Your refreshing,
make us ready for Your coming Spirit.

As we long for Your renewing,
make us ready for Your coming Spirit.

Lord, bless Your world
All And fill us with Your Spirit
Merciful Father,
All accept these prayers for the sake of Your Son,
our Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen‘

He gives animals their food
and feeds the young ravens when they call.
His pleasure is not in strong horses,
nor his delight in brave soldiers;
but he takes pleasure in those who honour him,
in those who trust in his constant love
