As a Church we were part of the global prayer venture – Thy Kingdom Come.
This prayer continues around the world!
Thy Kingdom Come 2022 prayer venture will be running 26 May – 5 June.
Each Sunday at Midday we are re-visiting one of the 11 daily themes….and this time we revisit the second theme of PRAISEas we are encouraged to bring our songs and words of praise to the Living God with a song we have come to love!
Palm Sunday
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from the Living God
Reading : ROMANS 5 verse 2
Meditation : take time to consider these words on this Sunday.
Access by Faith.
What is God teaching/reminding you this morning?
Where is your faith in God on a scale at this time?
And then pray in response,
Naming others known to you at a distance from God at this time
Asking Him to bring them back
In Jesus’ Name, Amen
Midday
Pray the Prayer for the Month as your own midday prayer
When I survey the wondrous cross
Praise the name of Jesus!
For God so loved the world
How deep the Father’s love!
There is a Redeemer, God’s own Son
Thank you, O my Father!
Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast
Save in the death of Christ my God
When I stand in glory
I will see his face,
And there I’ll serve my King for ever
In that holy place.
Amen and Amen!
Evening
Reading : read these words again from ROMANS 5 verse 2
Reflect on the words and then Pray in response at the end of your day
O LORD, our God,
We bring our evening sacrifice of praise to you
For who you are
As we acknowledge You our Help even this day.
As we name others in need
As we pray for the Church in all corners of our world
To sing and speak of Jesus.
In His saving name, Amen.
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit

What encourages and challenges you today?

I look up to you,
Up to heaven, where you rule.
Hear my grateful morning prayer

In Jesus’ name.
Amen
Midday
Pray the Lord’s Prayer as your midday prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be Your Name.
Your kingdom come
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our sins
As we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory.
Now and for ever
Amen
