Thy Kingdom Come #thanks

As a Church we recently took part in the global prayer venture of Thy Kingdom Come.
This ran during the 11 days between Ascension and Pentecost.

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 THANKS as we pause to pray.

Give thanks with a grateful heart

To Father God

For His good gifts to you this past week

Daily Devotions for Saturday 20th June, 2020

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit

Reading : REVELATION 2 verses 18-29

Meditation : take time to consider this part of the Bible.
The message to the Church in Thyatira.
What are you encouraged and challenged by?
Which part of the message stays with you?

And then Pray in response

O God, the Judge of all,
Hear my morning prayer
And have mercy
As I lay myself
And your Church
And this day
Before you
In Jesus’ name.
Amen

Midday
Pray the Prayer for the Month as your own midday prayer

Come, Holy Spirit, live in me and transform my life.
You are a most precious gift, the breath of the living God.
You bring certainty to my trembling uncertainties, focus to my disorientation.
You bring companionship in my loneliness, comfort in my sadness,
strength for my weakness, courage for my fearfulness, hope in my despair.

Come, Holy Spirit, live in me and transform my life.
You have the power to change my mundane into your special,
the power to lift my earthbound self to your glory,
the power to change my monochrome to glorious technicolour,
the power to make me, even me, your light in the world.

Come, Holy Spirit, live in me and transform my life.
Amen.

Evening
Reading : read these verses again from REVELATION 2 at the end of your day
Reflect on these words as you look back over your day and then Pray in response

LORD God, our God, hear our prayers this evening
As we return our thanks to You
As we bring our prayers of confession to You
And trust You for tomorrow
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
