Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Father God

Meditation : take time and consider this part of Jesus’ teaching on prayer this morning.
What are you encouraged and challenged by today?
And then pray in response – as your day starts
including for others in need known to you at this time
(Pray your own words to the LORD God first)
And then together we pray….
O LORD,
God who hears our prayers,
O make us more like Jesus we ask.
Have mercy and hear our cry this morning
For others
For family
For neighbours and colleagues
For ourselves

As we journey through another week how is your rhythm of prayer and devotion going??
As you move towards Pentecost Sunday what is your expectation?
Many of us have more time now to pause and pray with God – for various reasons.
Some of us have started a prayer journal.
Some of us have been pausing to pray at Midday and in the Evening as part of our Daily Devotion together.
As a Church we have set aside a Tuesday each week and provided a place with space – the UPPER ROOM – a place for time-out. However in these times sadly it is not possible to open and run this space.
But…..our Tuesdays can still be an opportunity for time out…..with God
You are invited to pause at some time in your Tuesday tomorrow and be still with God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
You are encouraged to speak with Him….to listen to Him.…to receive from Him…
You are invited to share in the Midday Prayer and Evening Prayer that will be posted online at 12noon and 9pm. We are also encouraged to pray the Lord’s Prayer with others in our city and across our land at 5pm….focussing on all those affected by the coronavirus.
You are invited to pray with others in our Church family as we journey through this week together…..and to listen for what God is saying to us in these particular days….
And there is the THY KINGDOM COME prayer venture starting this Thursday, when many, many Christians will be asking, seeking and knocking on Heaven’s door with a particular sense of urgency in these days.
It’s a global prayer movement.
We want to see our family and friends meet with Jesus and experience the Kingdom of God in their lives.
We long to see the Church and our world experience afresh the Kingdom of God.
This year the venture runs 21st-31st May.
Each day there will a different theme to help us pray.
There will be videos posted daily from the TKC team on their website, YouTube and social media channels.
As a church, Liberton Kirk has registered to be a part of this.
You can too – at www.thykingdomcome.global
At 12 noon during the venture our Midday Prayer will be focussed on the daily theme.
On the 24th our Prayer Team will be meeting together to pray and chat.
On Tuesday 26th the Midday Upper Room time of prayer together will be available via Zoom and in the evening the Gathering for Prayer will focus on Thy Kingdom Come.
You are encouraged to be a part of this!
Need any more information…. please do contact TKC, Alastair, Susan or John.
A prayer from the TKC morning and evening prayer guide….
Almighty God,
your ascended Son has sent us into the world
to preach the good news of your kingdom:
inspire us with your Spirit
and fill our hearts with the fire of your love,
that all who hear your Word
may be drawn to you,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
As a Church family we have been revisiting the 11 themes of the Thy Kingdom Come Prayer venture each Saturday morning.
This venture runs for the 11 days leading up to Pentecost and this year will be 21-31 May.
We will be continuing this through each Saturday in May at 12 noon and daily in the period 21st-31st.
And so today, on this last Saturday before TKC 2020, we are encouraged to pause and pray – and offer ourselves.
As God’s people we are called by Him to be channels of His Kingdom grace and mercy and love to those around us.
As God’s people He calls us to ourselves for His Kingdom purposes.
As God’s people we offer all that we are and all that we have so that His Kingdom will is done – on earth as it is in heaven.
In Jesus’ name
Amen.
It’s a global prayer movement.
For our family and friends to meet with Jesus and experience the Kingdom of God in their lives.
