The cause of spiritual blindness is sin, and we are freed from spiritual blindness by repentance. When we sin, it...
Lord Jesus, today we bring to You people who have requested our prayer support. The friend, the member of the family, the acquaintance, the colleague, the neighbour and the stranger – we bring them all to the foot of Y our cross today, seeking that Your mighty Holy Spirit will touch them, heal their hearts and refresh their spirits. Answer their needs today, whatever they may be, Oh Jesus. May no prayer return unanswered. Bless them and their own. Thank You for giving us an opportunity to intercede for them. Amen.
