Thy Kingdom Come at Midday

You are invited to pause on this Pentecost Sunday and reflect on the youth daily video from Thy Kingdom Come on the theme of PENTECOST

A Prayer from TKC
Overflowing God, breathe the spirit of Jesus into me and into all those who long for peace, especially those who have drifted from your way, got stuck in their faith, or who have not yet found a way to believe. You believe in them. Renew them by your Spirit. And today may your Church be filled with joy! Amen!

Thy Kingdom Come in Scotland

As part of God’s Church we have participated in the global prayer venture of Thy Kingdom Come each year. This runs during the 11 days between Ascension and Pentecost…..and this year it will happen May 13th-23rd.

You are invited to be a part of this.
You are encouraged to plan ahead in preparation.
Look out for more information each day on our Daily Devotions and Daily Reflections posts.

Each Saturday at 12 noon we are continuing to ask and seek and knock on Heaven’s door…..’Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done’…..and to pray for up to 5 people we know to meet with Jesus and to experience God’s Kingdom reign in their lives. Who is on your list?

This week as we pause to pray with others we are asking God to prepare us…as individuals, as a Church, as a nation, in our world… to experience afresh God’s Kingdom rule…to evidence the Kingdom of God at work.

We are invited to pause and pray for our nation after the national election….that the Kingdom of God may be evidenced in our land and His Kingdom will is done in our Government, our Church, our lives.

Thy Kingdom Come

As a Church we took part in the global prayer venture of Thy Kingdom Come earlier this year.

We are invited to spend time with the LORD our God….asking…..receiving…..

Our Father God

Thy Kingdom Come

In our lives

In the lives of those we name before You

In our city

In our nation

In this world

As it is in heaven

We ask in Jesus’ name

Amen!
