Today, we pray for the helpless

Lord Jesus, today we pray for those among us caught up in helpless situations. Grief, criticisms, stress, family problems, illness, 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 angels to be rushed to our side. When those who promised support do not deliver it, be our comfort. More than anything, let us have the assurance and the peace from Your Holy Spirit. Thank you for always being there, Jesus....

Today, we pray for our best friends

Lord Jesus, today we thank You for the angels we call our best friends. Bless, sanctify, heal, and strengthen our friendships.

May they never see distress, but always be Your witnesses of love, peace and joy. Bless my best friend, Lord. Amen.

Provide them and their families with finances for their daily needs. Tell them every day what should be done with their time, their lives. Amen.

Today, we pray for our home country

Lord Jesus, we surrender to You our motherland. Its people, faith and culture. Almighty God, bless our nation and make it true to the ideas of freedom, justice and brotherhood for all. Guard us from war, from natural calamities, from chaos. Be close to our statesmen; give them integrity, honesty, vision and courage, as they decide the future of our country. Make me more deeply aware of my heritage; realising not only my rights, but also my responsibilities as a citizen. Make this great land and all its people know Your will clearly, and stand up for it, for the...

Today, we pray for those struggling in their vocations

Lord Jesus, we pray today for Your children who are unhappy with the vocations they have chosen or been made to chose for their lives. May we be able to pray fervently and reassess our choices – ministry, career, religious life, family status and singlehood. We also bring to you the people who have made us question our choice. We desire to glorify Your purpose and perfect Your will in our lives, Jesus. So help us have the courage to make bold changes or major corrections if required, before its too late. May it really be a calling and not something...
