Today, we pray for expecting parents

Lord Jesus, today we bring to Your presence – our pregnant wives, sisters, mothers and friends – and their spouses. We pray that each of these men and women are mightily anointed to become Godly Christian parents. We pray that the fathers, the mothers’ wombs and their babies are blessed. May the men who are to provide care and love, do so, with Your special touch. May Your angels, Saint Anne and Mother Mary give the mothers-to-be relief from their discomforts. Bless the women with safe and happy confinement and smooth labour and the men with hands and hearts willing...

Today, we pray for our fathers

Lord Jesus, we pray that You bless all the fathers and father figures in this world. Guide them to become good role models and the epitomes of love, hard work, integrity, dedication and honesty to their families. Let them truly know that the greatest they can do for their own children is to love their mothers. Help them to become a father like You are. Give them Your grace and patience to handle life and people, the vulnerable, Your loving way. 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 Jesus Christ in us. May Your Holy Spirit radiate and touch the lives of everyone we meet. Touch and heal them all, Lord Jesus; and may the light in them – man, woman and child – heal our own weary souls too. Let us all become Angels of Your Light in a broken world. Amen.

Today, we pray for those lukewarm in their faith

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.

Today, we pray for our teachers

Lord Jesus, today we surrender to You our teachers. Thank You Lord, for those who taught us everything – from discipline to sharing, from knowledge to integrity. We pray that each one of them are touched by You and cared for in a special way. May good Christian men and women take up this commitment to become teachers. Bless their students to know You and about You, first and last. Amen.
