Today, we pray for those facing exams

Lord Jesus, You are the source of all wisdom. As our children prepare for their exams, be by their side. Open their minds, awaken their intelligence and bless their skills. Let them not be tired physically or emotionally. May they begin and end each exam with a prayer of trust and thanksgiving. We pray for victories beyond their imagination. Amen.

Today, we pray for the unemployed

Today, we pray for those who cut us through their words

Lord Jesus, there is no one who uses the power of words to heal as much as You do. We pray for Christians who inflict deep wounds with their tongue, without a care for others’ feelings. We pray that the ones who are at the receiving end – can heal, forgive and forget too, by Your grace. May we too become the kind of people who are gentle and loving in our speech. Let the anger, unforgiveness and hatred melt away when we are touched by You daily and speak out Your words. Heal our tongues, Lord Jesus. Amen.
