Thy Kingdom Come – at Midday – Cheeky Pandas!

As a Church we were part of the global prayer venture earlier last year – Thy Kingdom Come.

This prayer continues around the world and the ThyKingdomCome prayer venture runs 18-28 May this year.

Each Sunday at Midday we are re-visiting one of the 11 daily themes….and this time we revisit the video that was released for younger viewers…..on the theme of THANKS

Daily Devotions for 2nd April, 2023

Palm Sunday

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from the Living God

Reading : PSALM 56
Meditation : take time and consider these words this Sunday morning in Lent.
Be merciful to me O God.
My enemies.

What encourages and challenges you today?
What words stay with you?

And then pray in response to the LORD our God
Pray your own prayer as you step into today.

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

Evening
Reading : read these verses again from PSALM 56
Reflect on all that is said here in this particular passage and then Pray in response to this God

O LORD, our Great God,
Hear our evening prayers of praise we ask
As we thank you for what we read
As we look back over our day
As we look ahead to tomorrow
As we name before you those we are concerned about.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Dear Lord,
After Your humiliation, You walked steadfastly on
to a certain painful and brutal death.
You were afraid for You sweated blood with anguish,
but You still went on so that all those of us who truly believe
may rise to be with You at the end of our mortal journey.
We praise You and joyously give thanks to You for Your steadfastness.
Amen.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done across our world
In our community, in our city.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
