Lord Jesus, today we surrender to You those among us who have left the church, especially the ones who left because of our judgmental attitude, rifts, wounds and struggles within the church. Lord, we Christians ask your forgiveness that we have been at times like the Pharisees of Your times, turning people away with our self-righteousness. We pray that with the power and grace of God, all hurts are washed away by Your precious blood. May Your children not experience hatred and slander inside the church walls. Bind us all together with the eternal cords of Your love. Make us...

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You, all Your children who are homemakers. Lord, they often do the unpaid, thankless service no one wants to do, and do it lifelong. We thank You for these wonderful women and men who choose their families and their needs before their own success and a successful career. We bless their work-worn hands, Jesus. A special prayer for the mums, dads and relatives and the administrators who have made our own homes and institutions true homes of selfless love. Amen.

Lord Jesus, today we pray for those among us caught up in helpless situations. Grief, loneliness, unhappy marriages, stress, family problems, work issues, sinful bondage, abuse and financial crisis – only You can deliver us from these, sweet Jesus. May Your power flow into these areas and more, bringing healing, comfort and joy. We pray for redemption. We pray for Your angels to be rushed to our side, on time. More than anything, let us have the assurance and the peace from Your Holy Spirit. Amen.

Lord Jesus, on this day we specially lift unto You all the widowed across the world. Lord, the loss of ones beloved is one of the most painful experiences of life. We ask You to look kindly on all widows and widowers. As they struggle through loneliness, keep them in Your tight embrace. Keep them always protected and never let their emotions or sexuality be abused. For those who are still not able to overcome the shock of having lost their beloved, we pray that Your hands of healing might be upon their tender hearts right this moment onwards. Amen.
