Thy Kingdom Come #PrayFor

As part of the follow-up to the Thy Kingdom Come prayer venture last year around the world…and in preparation for May this year… we pause as God’s people this weekend and consider the theme again of #PrayFor

Take a few minutes now – or when you are practically able this weekend – with God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit – and spend time in prayer with Him – bringing Him your prayers for others – for God’s purposes and Kingdom will in their lives and circumstances.

Father God
Thank you
For all the blessings
Of this past week.
Hear my prayers
For….
And….
And….
That they may
Experience your blessing
And know your Kingdom Come
Your will being done
In their lives.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen
