As a Church we were part of the global prayer venture – Thy Kingdom Come.
This prayer continues around the world!
Each Sunday at Midday we will re-visit one of the 11 daily themes.
This week it is JESUS – and those we long to see meet with Him and experience Kingdom living.
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from the Living God
Reading : HEBREWS 12 verses 25-29
Meditation : take time and consider this short passage on this Sunday morning.
What does it mean for you?
What is God teaching you about His Kingdom today?
And then pray in response
O God Eternal
Strong and sure
We bow before you
We believe in you
We trust in you
Thy Kingdom come
Thy will be done we call out
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Midday
Pray the Prayer for the Month as your own midday prayer
Our Father in Heaven
May your holy name be honoured
In our lives
In your Church
Our Father in Heaven
May your kingdom rule be seen
