Lord Jesus, God of love, we pray that Your peace comes into our world. Our world is torn by broken individuals, distant factions and fighting countries. More than anything else, we need Your kind of peace that surpasses all human understanding – to fill us right now and our nations. We pray that Your touch heals each one of the countries around the world. May the love that Your Holy Spirit gives cleanse individuals, faiths, groups. God bless us all. Amen.
Lord Jesus, we pass people every day who need a demonstration of Your love – friends, family, strangers. May we search for ways to show extravagant gestures of gracious love, and outlandish acts of kindness. Make us people who set a primary goal – of doing daily deeds for which we cannot be repaid but in heaven. Set our hearts on fire for people who do not know You. Precious Savior, consume us with compassion for the desperate and downtrodden. Let us pour our lives out into Your kind of love.
Lord Jesus, today we bring to the foot of Your cross all our brothers and sisters who are tied to their beds. We pray that Your Holy Spirit brings strength back to their limbs and they rise and walk. We believe that by Your stripes they are healed. Lord, help us in our unbelief any time we waver. We also pray for the ones waiting on these friends, that they may get the courage to serve better and serve in love. Be with them in their low points and highs. Amen.
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 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.
Lord Jesus, today we bring to You each man, woman and child seeking to find You through a retreat. We pray that those who desperately wish to attend a retreat can do so soon. Remove the hindrances, anxieties, people and negative circumstances that are blocking their plans. We surrender each person and their desire to know You fully – at the foot of the cross. May their cries reach Your ears today and may they get the deliverance only Your Holy Spirirt can give. Amen.
