Each Saturday morning at 8am we are revisiting a theme from the Thy Kingdom Come prayer venture… something that was launched by the Archbishop of Canterbury and others for the 11 days leading up to Pentecost during the last two years….it was a call for the Church to seek and experience God’s Kingdom rule in our lives and churches and communities and land and across our world….and will be repeated in 2019.

Today we pause to pray in expectation….

Take time and space in a place where you can pause to pray with the LORD our God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Thy Kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth
In my life
In my street
In my family
In my Church family
In my city
In my nation
As it is in Heaven

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Jesus.

Reading : PSALM 52

Meditation : take time to consider these words this Saturday morning.
What is God saying to you today about judgment from His Word today?

Pray in response to this God of David’s, our God

O LORD
Our God
Mighty and Holy One,
Receive our morning praise
Hear our prayers
And forgive us our sins
As we forgive those who sin against us.
Oh keep us on the right path we ask
As you guide us this day
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.

Midday
Pray the Lord’s Prayer as your midday prayer
(See Matthew 6 or online under the Prayer tab on LK website)
Father God of grace and mercy, hear our prayers.

Evening
Reading : read this Psalm of David again
Reflect prayerfully on the words here ….. and then Pray in response
Especially for others in need of meeting with the LORD our God
Spirit of the Living God, hear our evening prayers at the end of this day
And be with those we name before you.
In Jesus’ saving name, Amen.

In our land and across our world during the 10 days in 2017 and 2018 before Pentecost believers and followers of Jesus were invited to pause and pray for the Kingdom of God to be experienced and evidenced anew…and to pray for 5 friends and contacts to meet with Jesus. This was a venture created by God through the Archbishop of Canterbury and others and will be repeated in 2019…and wholly encouraged by the Moderator of the Church of Scotland.

As part of our daily devotional rhythm there are 11 posts on our website and social media pages – each Saturday morning at 8am – on the 11 themes brought to us by the Thy Kingdom Come prayer venture leaders.
