Today, we pray for those living in sexual sin

Lord Jesus, You taught us about love. But to some, love is manifested as lust. We pray for our brothers and sisters living in the bondage of sexual immorality, especially the ones who live it in secret and have no qualms about it. May they have the courage and integrity to recognise their folly and fight it, with Your grace. Pour forth Your Spirit on each one of us so that we may never fall into this evil of ‘using and throwing’ people. Protect our own and our children from being preys to this too. Amen.

Today, we pray for inner healing

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You our wounds. O God who healed the sick, have mercy on us all. May Your love that surpasses all human understanding fill us, cleanse us and strengthen us. Remove from each one of us any deep inner wounds which we got right from the time we were conceived, up to today. We pray that we can forgive and forget completely by Your grace. Help heal the ones we have wounded too. Amen.

Today, we pray for childless couples

Hold them close and hear their plea, especially when they hear...

Today, we pray over our losses

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You everything that we count as loss in our lives today. Lord, we chose to forgive ourselves and the ones who destroyed our visions. The failed interview, the broken home, the lost relationship, the thwarted plans, the insulted friendship, the shattered dreams, the destroyed ministry and many more. Lord, when You breathe life into our losses, they become precious gains once again. Help us to experience that and more importantly, recognise and thank You sincerely for that. May no child of Yours despair today over anything that he or she has lost. May we...

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. We praise You and glorify You for their love and support – the friend in school, the one who shared secrets in college, the colleague who always lend an ear and the stranger who became the most integral part of our lives. May they never see distress, but always be Your witnesses of love, peace and joy. Bless my best friend, Lord. Send St. Michael and our guardian angels to stand guard over us and our own. More than...
