As part of our rhythm of daily and weekly prayer and devotion as a Church, we are revisiting the 11 themes of the Thy Kingdom Come prayer venture earlier this year each Saturday morning.
We are invited today to pause and pray – with gratitude and thanksgiving.
Count your many blessings
name them one by one…..
….this past week
…today
We are also encouraged to pray for up to 5 people – family, friend, neighbour, colleague – to meet with Jesus.

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit
Reading : PSALM 108
Meditation : take time to consider these verses this morning.
A psalm of David.
What encourages and challenges you?
What is God saying to you today from His Word?
And then Pray in response – looking again at verses 4 and 5
O LORD God, my God,
Hear my morning prayer
As I lay my sacrifice of praise before You
As I thank You for your great love
As I worship You for who You are
As I call on You to help against the enemy
As I ask You to pour out blessings on Messy at Moredun today
In Jesus’ name.
Amen
Midday

And trust you for tomorrow
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
You are invited
to pause and pray
with others
at this time of your day

A psalm of looking back and giving thanks by God’s people of old.

And then Pray in response to what you read – giving thanks to this God.
Look again at verses 1-4 as you turn to pray…
In Jesus’ name
Amen.

LORD God, our God, receive our praise
For who You are!
For all you have done for us!
And as we give it all back to you
May you continue to reach and save people
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done across our world
In our community, in our city.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
You are invited to pause and pray as you journey into Sunday.
