Today, we pray for the unemployed

Lord Jesus, today we pray for those who are longing for a job. We pray that these brothers and sisters will have the grace to pray and seek Your will when they chase a career. May they never lose hope when rejection comes. May they have the will and the grace from You to try and try again without giving up. Provide them and their families with finances for their daily needs. Tell them every day what should be done with their time, their lives, their future. Amen.

Today, we pray for the strangers we meet

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You those who we bump into during our daily walk. The men, women and children we do not know, but who are all opportunities You provide for us to share Your love. May each person we meet see Christ in us. May Your Holy Spirit radiate and touch the lives of everyone we meet. Touch and heal them; and through the love we give, heal us all, Lord Jesus. Amen.

Today, we pray for healing our stress

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You individuals and organisations suffering from stress. Lord, You are the Lord over our emotions. Make us feel Your presence when we are anxious and disturbed. Clear the clutter and chaos in our lives. Bless events where people are struggling with last minute organisation, lack of support and unkind people. Let Your peace flow. Amen.

A Newborn’s Prayer

Here I am, Daddy and Mama, a gift from the Lord up above, To brighten your days with joy untold, and fill our home with love. I’m tiny, precious and fragile, but made miraculously, To fulfill God’s plan for my life and be what He wants me to be. Some say I look like you, Mom, other say more like Dad. But I have distinct traits from both of you, whether that’s good or bad. I love it when you hold me securely in your strong arms, You let me know you’re my protector in this world with all it’s...

Today, we pray for our protection

Lord Jesus, today we pray for 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 from today 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 cocoons us away from loving You and loving our brethren. Amen.
