Lord Jesus, we plead for Your protection – from evil, strife, bad habits and any vile attacks of Satan. Lord, we want to live glorifying Your name. Sometimes, we build up shackles which destroy instead of keeping us safe. Protect us in a very special way, Lord Jesus. Send Your angels to stand guard over us and our own. More than anything, keep us away from anything that blocks us away from loving You and loving our brethren like you want them loved, all the while using Your name for it. Amen.

Lord Jesus, we pray today for all the marital unions in the world – across nations, race and age groups. Lord, You are the designer of the first marriage. We pray that couples today will respect the sanctity of that institution. We bring their children and grandchildren to You. Let strife, ego, abuse be removed – in Your precious name. Let marriages be deeply spiritual and soulful unions created by You, with Yourself as the centre. Bind all couples with cords of Your eternal, sacrificial, deep-rooted love. Amen.

Lord Jesus, today we surrender to You those among us who have a lukewarm relationship with You and Your people. Lord, You said that those who are neither hot nor cold would be spat out. We pray that we really begin to live out our Christian faith with love, passion, freedom and grace. May we also never become blind followers of the blind, but exercise Your wisdom and caution, when facing challenges in our faith walk. Bring Your Spirit alive in us – every day – give us a fresh anointing of Your Holy Spirit. 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. Amen.
