Thy Kingdom Come #PrayFor
In our land and across our world during the 10 days leading to Pentecost in 2017 and 2018 believers and followers of Jesus were invited to pause and pray for the Kingdom of God to be experienced and evidenced anew. This was a venture created by God through the Archbishop of Canterbury and others and will be repeated in 2019.
As part of our daily devotional rhythm there will be 11 posts on our website and social media pages – at 8am each Saturday morning – on the 11 themes brought to us by the Thy Kingdom Come prayer venture leaders.
Today we are invited to pause in God’s presence – and bring Him our prayers for others – for them to experience God’s Kingdom blessings!
Please take a few minutes to pray your prayers for others this morning.
Name before Him those known to you in need at this time.
Lay before Him those in need in our church family.
Pray for refugees and others from overseas in our city, in our community.
O LORD our God
Hear our prayers
And have mercy we ask.
In Jesus’ name, Amen and Amen!
