Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit

Reading : ROMANS 8 verses 26 and 27

And then Pray in response to what you read – to this God of ours.

In Jesus’ name
Amen and Amen!

Midday
Pray the Prayer for the Month as your midday prayer

Almighty God, sitting enthroned in the heavens, we praise you because you, our Father, are our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. In these days of constant change & uncertainty, thank you that you never change. May we live each day conscious of your love surrounding us and your power strengthening us.

We pray for our fellow believers, those here in Liberton, throughout our nation and all over the world. Let us stand shoulder to shoulder, encouraging one another in faith and upholding one another in prayer. May we carry your light to the people we meet and bring your peace and hope to those living in fear.

Lord Jesus, there will be no end to the increase of your government and peace. We pray that many would be drawn to you in these days, that they would seek and find the security that is only found in you. Let your Kingdom come, your will be done, here on earth as in heaven.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Evening
Reading : read these verses again from ROMANS 8
Reflect on this God, your God, our God…. and then Pray with Him this evening

LORD God, our God,
Thank you for giving us your Holy Spirit
To help us
To guide us
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done across our world
In our community, in our city.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.

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.
