60 Days of Prayer - Thankful Hearts

Dear Heavenly Father, we come to you with thankful hearts for all you've accomplished through us in the past, and for what you will do in our future.  We are reminded of Stephen as he recounts Israel's history in Acts 7, and are encouraged that if we remain obedient, you are faithful.  I pray for those in supporting roles in our Government to use their influence to serve your interests and point our leaders to seek your face.In Jesus name, Amen.

60 Days of Prayer - Your Name is to be Praised

Today Lord, as the sun rises, your name is to be praised. We ask that you would appoint those whom you call to this place of service - godly, righteous men and women who fear you. Your word tells us that when the righteous thrive, the people rejoice. Position those whom you have called for this day and bless them with an unwavering trust in you. Raise them up and establish them. We ask for your blessing, your counsel, and your divine will in all matters.

60 Days of Prayer - Serve like You Serve

 “Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.” Colossians 3:12 


God we thank you for your kindness that led us to repentance. May we show each other, our communities and leaders, your heart of mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Give us and our leaders the humility to serve each other’s needs, kindness to turn away anger, gentleness to drive out fear, and mercy to make a place of safety for all. We ask for your heart for this province and all who call it home. We pray that compassion would lay the foundation for decisions made and drive the hearts and minds that make them. Amen.
