Thy Kingdom Come

As a Church Family we were part of the global prayer venture – Thy Kingdom Come – when we were encouraged to pray for up to 5 friends, family, neighbours, colleagues to meet with Jesus.
We pray on.

We were also challenged to pray for evidence of God’s Kingdom on earth – as it is heaven – in our lives, in our church life and worship and work and in our community, our nation and our world. We pray on.

There are still copies of the helpful Prayer Journal and Novena available in the Kirk and in the Offering House – and don’t forget the Cheeky Pandas for those who are younger! The videos of helpful reflections – for young people as well – are available on the website www.thykingdomcome.global
We will be revisiting many of these here in the coming Sundays at Midday….do join us!

Our Prayer Ministry Team also provided a daily reflection over the 11 day period and you can revisit them on our YouTube channel…

Daily Devotions for Sunday 12th June, 2022

Communion Sunday at Liberton Kirk

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from the Living God

Reading : ROMANS 8 verse 14

Meditation : take time to consider these words on this Sunday.
Led by God’s Spirit.
What do these words mean for you in your daily living?
What is God teaching/reminding you this morning?

And then pray in response,
Naming others known to you at a distance from God at this time
Asking Him to bring them back

Holy Spirit of God
Fall afresh on me
Fall afresh on us
Fall afresh on those we name

In Jesus’ Name, Amen

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

O God of Pentecostal giving
Pour out you Holy Spirit
Afresh on us
Your children

O God of Romans 8
You have given us
So much
In Christ Jesus

O God of the future
Sustain us
Lead us
Bless us

In Jesus’ name
Amen!

Evening
Reading : read these words again from ROMANS 8 verse 14
Reflect on the truths written here and then Pray in response at the end of your day

O LORD, our Deliverer,
We bring our evening sacrifice of praise to you
For who you are
As we acknowledge You our Help even this day.
As we name others in need
As we pray for the Church in all corners of our world
To be led by your Holy Spirit

In Jesus’ name, Amen and Amen.
