As a Church we were part of the global prayer venture – Thy Kingdom Come.
This prayer continues around the world!
Thy Kingdom Come 2022 prayer venture will be running 26 May – 5 June.
Each Sunday at Midday we are re-visiting one of the 11 daily themes….and this time we revisit the third theme of THANKSas we are encouraged to bring our songs and words of thanksgiving to the Living God we believe and trust in
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from the Living God
Reading : ROMANS 3 verses 10-18
Meditation : take time and consider this passage this particular Sunday morning.
As it is written….
What is God teaching/reminding you today?
And then pray in response – using the words as you turn to prayer
O God of truth
We bow before you
We believe in you
We trust in you
We offer you our songs of praise
This new day
In Jesus’ Name, Amen
Midday
Pray the Prayer for the Month as your own midday prayer
When I survey the wondrous cross
Praise the name of Jesus!
For God so loved the world
How deep the Father’s love!
There is a Redeemer, God’s own Son
Thank you, O my Father!
Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast
Save in the death of Christ my God
When I stand in glory
I will see his face,
And there I’ll serve my King for ever
In that holy place.
Amen and Amen!
Evening
Reading : read these particular verses again from ROMANS 3
Reflect on the words and images and then Pray in response to this God
Praise him, kings and all peoples,
princes and all other rulers;
young women and young men,
old people and children too.
Let them all praise the name of the LORD!
His name is greater than all others;
his glory is above earth and heaven
O LORD, hear our evening prayers of praise we ask
As we thank you for the blessings of this Sunday
As we believe and trust in you
As we pilgrimage on towards tomorrow
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
As we step into Sunday…. we pray for others as well as ourselves…
On this Easter Sunday evening you are invited to pause and pray with others in our church family
We are encouraged to
P AUSE with Father God as we consider His great love for us each and all
R EJOICE in the blessings He has given this special day
A SK for others..for a particular situation..for ourselves
Y IELD (say Yes) to His Kingdom ways for tomorrow as we step into a new week
On this Easter Sunday…..as we pause at the empty tomb…as the nation and the world wrestles with the crisis in Ukraine – a major concern before us at this time… you are invited to pause and continue to pray with others in our city and across the nation…to the LORD our God, our Father God.
You are encouraged to continue to pray for all those affected by the coronavirus – in our church family, in our nation and in our world, where many are still waiting for vaccine supplies – and for all those in need on our Church Prayer List at this time – and for the various parts of the world in turmoil at this time
For family and friends and neighbours
For Church leaders across the world at this time
For NHS and Care Home staff across the nation
For those who are feeling anxious about others at this time
Since we have now been justified by his blood,
how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him!
Romans 5 verse 9
