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 us little by little, 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, which is Your way. Amen.

Lord Jesus, we bring to Your Cross those who are judged the harshest by each one of us – the Pharisees of today. The crying single, the teen with the tattoo, the sulky colleague, the temperamental boss, the whining elder, the insensitive partner, the cutting friend, the alcoholic neighbour, the gossipy stranger and many more faces we meet daily…may we see them all – as You see them, holy and perfect creations in an imperfect world. Let us not judge, lest we be judged by You. Forgive and heal us, each time before we even think of lifting our fingers...

Lord Jesus, You created man and gave woman to him as a partner. We pray for those of us, especially Christians, who are living through the pain of ‘married singlehood’. Breathe life into our marriages, Holy Spirit. We pray that men and women can receive complete healing and deliverance by Your power. Bind the devil from abusing vulnerability and pain in a marriage. Heal wounds and help couples to forgive and move on. Bless and heal their children. And help us bring ourselves, our marriages and our partners – to You, daily and forever. Amen.

Lord Jesus, we pray for those among us who are travelling. We pray that You will keep each one of us safe and protected by Your constant care when we move from one place to another. Give us travelling mercies. Keep our loved ones who are on the move by air, road or water, safe from death, disease or catastrophes. May Your angels surround us now and forever – right from the time we step out to make our journey and to the time when we are back. Amen.

Lord Jesus, on this day we bring to You leaders of our churches, countries, organisations and homes. We pray that they are fine men and women who always listen to their conscience and have the guts to obey it, whatever may be the price. May Your Holy Spirit be with them every step of the way, building groups and people, not breaking them. Bring Your qualities of mercy, justice and honesty into their daily lifestyles. Strengthen those of us who are called to be leaders. Amen.
