Today, we pray for those who weep for their children

Lord Jesus, we pray for all those parents weeping and praying for their beloved children. No parent would want to see their children living in sin, suffering or sicknesses. O Lord take into account the valuable tears of those parents who are praying for their children. May their tears be honoured by You. May their children get healed physically, emotionally and spiritually. Amen.

Today, we pray for the hungry

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You those among us who are hungering for a square meal. Lord, do not judge our cruel world where the wealthy are enjoying the best of luxuries while millions are starving. We also surrender our hunger for love, care and fellowship. We especially submit the vulnerable – the old, the children and the lonely, who do not have anyone to offer them anything and have to fend for themselves daily. Forgive those who talk about feeding the hungry but never do so. May those who hunger be filled, by You and by Your creations...

Today, we pray for those being tested

Lord Jesus, our Saviour, we need You now as we are struggling in the crucible of suffering. Lord, touch and bless each of us who are being tested through rejection of loved ones, poor relationships, loss, illness, family problems, bondages, calamities, crisis situations, financial crunch, stress or fear. We wash all these away by the power of Your precious blood. May Your love bring us healing and peace, plus fresh assurance, right now. Amen.

Today, we pray for parents who feel abandoned

Lord Jesus, You gave us the gift of parents. There are so many children who do not see their parents as a gift, but rather as a burden. Our parents have given their whole lives and made a lot of sacrifices for us, their children. But today they feel unwanted and left out. We offer their pain unto You. Have mercy on them. May these children one day realise their mistake and learn to love and care for their parents who completely deserve their love. Amen.

Today, we pray for the lonely

Lord Jesus, loneliness if the first thing that Your eyes seemed as not right. We pray for those among us who are living alone in this world – the singles, the married singles, the aged, the ostracised and the rejected. We pray that Your presence will surround us when we are at our loneliest point. We pray that You provide us with the right partners to be Your loving touch and voice. Bring angels into our lives when friends forget us, Lord. Amen
