Thy Kingdom Come #offer

As a Church we took part in the global prayer venture of Thy Kingdom Come earlier this year.
This ran during the 11 days between Ascension and Pentecost….many weeks and months ago!

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.

This week we focus on the theme of OFFER as we pause to pray with others.

We are invited to spend time with the LORD our Father God….offering to Him all that we are and all that we have….for His Kingdom purposes

Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise,

Take my hands, and let them move
At the impulse of Thy love;
Take my feet and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee,

Take my voice, and let me sing
Always, only, for my King;
Take my lips, and let them be
Filled with messages from Thee,

Take my silver and my gold;
Not a mite would I withhold;
Take my intellect, and use
Every power as Thou shalt choose,

Take my will, and make it Thine;
It shall be no longer mine.
Take my heart; it is Thine own;
It shall be Thy royal throne,

Take my love; my Lord, I pour
At Thy feet its treasure-store.
Take myself, and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee.

(words by Frances Ridley Havergal 1836-1879)

We are invited to spend time with the LORD our Father God….bringing our prayers to Him

For things done we shouldn’t have…

For things undone we should have…

For things spoken we shouldn’t have…

For things unspoken we should have…

For things thought we shouldn’t have…

For things thought we should have…

For being unlike Jesus…..

And we receive His forgiveness and cleansing and peace….

As we spend time in the Father’s arms and know afresh that He loves us…
