Today, we pray for inner healing

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You our wounds. O God who healed every wounded and ill that came to You, have mercy on us all. May Your love that surpasses all human understanding fill us, cleanse us and strengthen us. Remove from each one of us any deep inner wounds which we got right from the time we were conceived, up to this day. Remove all memories of harsh, unfair words spoken and deeds done against us. We pray that we can forgive and forget, and help heal the ones we have wounded too. Amen.

Today, we pray for our purification

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You, the Fountain of all Holiness – a desire for our purification. Cleanse us of all iniquity; keep our souls holy, our minds clean and our bodies chaste. When evil tries to taunt and entice us with sin, keep us protected. Let today be the beginning of our sanctification. Create in us clean hearts and seal our senses with Your Precious Blood. May we be ready to receive You, the babe in the manger, all over again, with all the true honour You deserve. Amen.

Today, we pray for the silent helpers of Your Ministry

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You, Your silent supporters on this earth. Lord, bless and honour those who clean the pews, decorate the halls for worship, do secretarial work, wash the toilets and do odd jobs behind the scenes – the sound technicians, the volunteer staff, the drivers, the launderers, the babysitters and all those who faithfully and quietly support ministries with their time and money, for Your glory. A prayer for their families too. May their rewards come from You. And frequently remind each of us that each role comes from You, so respect all jobs, all brethren....

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.
