As a church family at Liberton Kirk we have been revisiting the 11 themes from the Thy Kingdom Come prayer venture earlier in the year. We are pausing to do so together on a Saturday morning.
This morning we are invited to pause and pray…for others…to God, to Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Take time with Him
and name others known to you at this time
in your family
in your church family
on your street
in your city
in this world
as you journey into Saturday and through this season of Advent
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit
Reading : ISAIAH 9 verse 6
‘Prince of Peace’
Meditation : take time to consider these few words this morning.
What do they mean for you?
What is God saying to you today from His Word?
And then Pray in response – using these words this morning
O God, the Prince of Peace
Hear my morning prayer
And give peace
As I lay others
And this day
Before you
In Jesus’ name.
Amen
Midday
Pray God’s blessing on those facing an unsettled Christmas
Father God, hear our prayers, have mercy and bless them real good we ask
Surprise them even this day with your perfect peace
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Evening
Reading : read these words again from ISAIAH at the end of your day
Reflect on these words as you look back over the day and then Pray in response
LORD God, our God, hear our prayers this evening
As we return our thanks to You
For your Perfect Peace
And so trust you for tomorrow
In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Reading : HEBREWS 4 verse 14 – chapter 5 verse 10
Meditation : take time to consider these verses this morning.
What are you encouraged and challenged by?
What is your response to God’s Word today?
Take time to Pray in response
O God of power and grace,
As I read these words
Help me believe
And trust in You
In good times and in hard times.
May Your Holy Spirit work in and through me.
As You are doing across the world.
Oh show mercy in these days we call out!
In Jesus’ name.
Amen – we pray together.
Midday
Pray God’s blessing on the persecuted Church in Iraq
Father God, hear our prayers, have mercy and pour out blessings we ask
Evening
Reading : read these verses again from HEBREWS 4 and 5
Reflect on the way God has spoken with you in your life
and pray in response to Him – with humility
and for others known to you in need at this time
Lord Jesus, hear our evening prayers
As we return our sacrifice of praise
As we bring ourselves to you at the end of this day.
As we name others before You.
Amen.
