Thy Kingdom Come – that song!

As a Church we were part of the global prayer venture earlier last year – Thy Kingdom Come.

This prayer continues around the world!

Each Sunday at Midday we are re-visiting one of the 11 daily themes….and on this Special Day we revisit the song that has come to mean so much to many of us as we watch and listen with others….as we step into a New Year and God’s Kingdom ways for 2023…..

Daily Devotions for Thursday 22nd December, 2022

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Father God

Reading : LUKE 1 verses 46-56 (once more)
(In another version?)

Meditation : take time and consider these words afresh this morning.
Mary’s song of Praise!
Which words stay with you?
What is your response to God’s written Word today?

Then pause to praise and pray to this faithful and merciful God

And so we bring our sacrifice of praise to you, our God
Forgive us our sins
As we forgive those who sin against us
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on those seeking to know Jesus
God of grace…hear our prayers and pour a blessing we ask on each and all

Evening
Reading : read these verses again from LUKE 1 verses 46-56
Reflect on the words and images – at the end of your day
and Pray with honest and humble words in response to this God – our God

People will speak of your mighty deeds,
and I will proclaim your greatness.
They will tell about all your goodness
and sing about your kindness.
The LORD is loving and merciful,
slow to become angry and full of constant love.
He is good to everyone
and has compassion on all he made.

O LORD, hear our evening prayers
Forgive us our sins of this day
As we forgive those who have sinned against us – even today
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
