#ThyKingdomcome #prayfor

As part of the follow-up to the Thy Kingdom Come prayer venture earlier this year across the world, we pause as God’s people this weekend and consider the theme again of #prayfor

Take a few minutes now – or when you are practically able -with God , Father, Son and Holy Spirit- and bring Him your weekend prayers -for others.

Father, Son and Holy Spirit
Hear our prayers
as we name before you
those we love
those in need
those who have crossed our lives this past week
those who have headlined our news reports
those we expect to share today with.

Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
in each and all their lives.
In Jesus’ name we ask.
Amen.

take my actions
take my will
take my emotions
take me

Thy kingdom come

Take a few minutes now – or when you are practically able -with God , Father, Son and Holy Spirit- and bring Him your weekend prayers of confession.
Confess before Him words and thoughts and actions from this past week,  people you have hurt or offended and one way in which this country has rebelled against His ways of truth, love and peace.
And receive His forgiveness in and through Christ Jesus as you hand over your confessions – letting the Spirit wash you anew and clothe you in royal robes!

LORD God, my Father – sorry.
Son of God, my Jesus – sorry.
Holy Spirit of God – thank You.
Amen.

Daily Devotions for September 2017

‘There is salvation in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we must be saved .’    Acts 4 verse 12       

The Daily Devotions are but one way to feed on God’s Word in the morning, at midday, in the evening… to pray with Him continually through your day and to share with others the treasures or hurdles you discover. The Church website and Facebook page (even on a handy mobile) provide the fuller daily devotional.. However it all follows the pattern below which the information provided fits into, based on the Kirk’s origins of the Celtic and Northumbrian traditions. It was these traditions that gave birth to the Daily Devotions in early 2015.

Morning
Reading and Meditation on the content and a Prayer of response

Midday
Prayer – mostly for others

Evening
Verse(s) from the morning reading
Reflection and Prayer at the end of the day

As the year moves on and the season of Looking OUTWARD together starts, so we will be feeding on the book of ACTS during September and October – the Spirit is poured out! the Church is born! the Good News is spread further and further! 

We are all encouraged to listen for God’s Word speaking as we continue in our ‘rhythm of devotion’ during 2017.

The Lord’s Prayer

Our Father, who art in heaven Hallowed be Your Name.
Your kingdom come Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,And forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation But deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory. Now and for ever.

Amen
