Today, we pray for the grace to know You

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You our lack of trust in You. The fear, the doubt and the torment that we inflict upon ourselves, not knowing about even one iota of Your love for us. Bless us to become truly Your children who know You, Heavenly Father. Lord Jesus, may we come to know Your love, even though it can never be completely known. May we never raise our thoughts, words or actions against You, Holy Spirit. Amen.

Today, we pray for workers

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You those among us who work for a living. The ones who hold jobs in all walks of life – men and women, old and young, rich and poor. We pray that all of us give hundred percent to our jobs and treat those as an opportunity to bring people closer to You. May we glorify You, sweet Jesus, through our jobs. Bless our careers with Your anointing and favour. Amen.

Today, we pray for students who have begun their school year

Today, we pray for families

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You all the families in the world. Lord, the evil one is destroying families and close relationships. We pray that all families are protected and that strife is routed in Your mighty name. May members of families learn the importance of praying – together and for each other. And through the power of that prayer, may we always live in physical and emotional togetherness and love. Amen.

Today, we pray for those labelled bad

Lord Jesus, You are all about love, mercy and justice. When the world brands a person as a black sheep, please hold his or her hand. The moment when one of us is labelled something evil, may Your angels rush to our aid. To lift us up and to give us grace and courage. May we able to bear the insults better, knowing that the world did the same to You years ago. May we not judge, lest we be judged ourselves. Heal all of us, Lord. Amen.
