Lord Jesus, today we bring to You those among us who have made music our passion. We pray especially that we use our skills to bring the world closer to You. Bless our talent that it becomes a blessing to all. Lord, You know how music can wrongly influence the society; we pray that anything we hear or sing – is cleansed by Your precious blood. Let heavenly melodies flow and fill our hearts and souls. Amen.
Lord Jesus, on this day we bring to You each one of us and our brothers and sisters who are marking new beginnings. We pray that all of us are blessed mightily with breakthroughs – in our spiritual walk, family life, ministries, relationships, finances, careers, health, answers to long lost prayers and anything we may need it for – in life. We pray that fresh starts and mighty favour would come, timely and overwhelming, as we are at the next bends in our roads. Amen.
Lord Jesus, You gave us Yourself in the Eucharist. We pray that the human race is truly grateful for it. Have mercy and convict the ones who commit sins against the Eucharist. May each one of us receive it with the awe that it deserves and more. Teach us to truly adore and rejoice in this beautiful expression of Your love. Thank You and love You, Lord Jesus. Amen.
Lord Jesus, today we bring to You all the families in the world. Lord, the evil one is destroying families and close relationships. We pray that families are protected and that strife is routed in Your mighty name. May the members of families learn the importance of praying – together and for each other. And through the power of that prayer, may we always live in physical and emotional togetherness and love. Amen.
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 their children, not experience hatred and slander inside the church walls. Bind us all together with the eternal cords of Your love. Amen.
