“Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
1 Thess 5:16-18
Exalt the Lord who…
- is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end
- became flesh and lived among us
- gave us the right to become children of God
Give thanks to God for …
- the birth of our Saviour over 2,000 years ago
- His grace, mercy and truth which reign supreme
- the love He shows in His wonderful gift, Jesus
- the opportunities we have to reflect that love
Petition God to…
- continue to heal the broken-hearted (name those known)
- loose the chains of injustice and oppression at home and abroad
- provide for the needy of body, mind or soul (name those known)
- strengthen the weary, especially those struggling to care for others in this pandemic
Remembering that a God is able…
- to complete the work he started in us
- to do immeasurably more than we ask or imagine, according to His power that Is at work within us.
In Jesus’ name we pray,
Amen
