Today, we pray that more people will serve You

Lord Jesus, on this day we pray that many created by You, for Your glory, will come forward to serve You. Lord, You told us that the harvest is plenty and the workers are few. Use us in any and every way You want to. We pray for committed preachers, musicians and other lay ministers to be raised up for Your work. Let them be loving, honest and sincere servants who put You and You alone first in their lives. Amen.

Today, we pray for animals, birds and other living creatures

Lord Jesus, on this day we pray for animals, birds and all other living creatures that You created to give us pleasure. We pray that these are protected and not abused. Forgive us Lord for the way we have hurt the living things around the world. A special prayer for our pets, who bring us great joy. May us human beings learn to respect and love life – any creature that You created. Amen.

Today, we pray for the mentally ill

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You our brothers and sisters who are mentally unstable. Heavenly Father, in Jesus’ name we pray that they will be delivered and saved from destruction. Let schizophrenia, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, fear, psychosis, neurosis, depression and all kinds of mental illness be routed from our families and communities. Let these people never harm themselves or others. Let them be set free from all emotional bondages, forever. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Today, we pray for the gift of gratitude

Lord Jesus, You have given us so much, on Thanksgiving Day, today, we pray for the gift of gratitude. Thank You, Father, for having created us and given us families. Thank You for being with us in all our joys and sorrows, for Your comfort in our sadness, Your companionship in our loneliness. Thank You for yesterday, today, tomorrow and for the whole of our lives. Thank You for friends, for health and for grace, for unknown blessings on their way. For food, water and clean air, blessings we take for granted. May we live every day conscious of all...

Today, we pray for those living in sexual sin

Lord Jesus, You taught us about love. But to some, love is manifested as lust. We pray for our brothers and sisters living in the bondage of sexual immorality, especially the ones who live it in secret and have no qualms about it. May they have the courage and integrity to recognise their folly and fight it, with Your grace. Pour forth Your Spirit on each one of us so that we may never fall into this evil. Protect our own and our children from being preys to this too. Amen
