Daily Prayers Thursday, 20 October 2022

Friends, let us wake up to the truth, that the Spirit of the Lord God is upon us.

We begin our new day by being kind, and considerate, acknowledging that we are one in the sight of God, our Creator, our eternal love. 

Let us pray Psalm 133

How wonderful it is, how pleasant, for God’s people to live together in harmony!

It is like the precious anointing oil running down from Aaron’s head and beard, down to the collar of his robes.

It is like the dew on Mount Hermon, falling on the hills of Zion.

That is where the Lord has promised His blessing – life that never ends.

Paul’s Second letter to the Thessalonians Chapter 2, verses 13-16

You are Chosen for Salvation

We must thank God at all times for you, brothers and sisters, you whom the Lord loves.  For God chose you as the first to be saved by the Spirit’s power to make you His holy people and by your faith in truth.  

God called you to this through the Good News we preached to you; he called you to possess your share of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.  

So then, our brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold on to those truths which we taught you, both in our preaching and in our letter.

May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and in His grace gave us unfailing courage you and strengthen you always to do and say what is good.

As we go about our daily chores may we experience grace and mercy.

We pray for the Lord’s Prayer in our own language

Our Father in heaven,
help us to honour
your name.
Forgive us for doing wrong,
Come and set up
your kingdom,
so that everyone on earth
will obey you,
as you are obeyed
in heaven.
Give us the food that we need.
Forgive us for doing wrong,
as we forgive others.
Keep us from being tempted
The kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours forever.
Amen.

We thank all who have helped us and ask Christ the healer to lay His healing hand upon all who are recovering illness.

Have a blessed day everyone.
