Dearest Heavenly Father,
We gather together today to praise and worship You. We pray that You will work in each one
of us and help us to imitate You.
We are Your children and You are our Father. Help us to live a life of love, just as Christ loved us so
much that He gave His life so that we could be saved. Lord in Your Mercy, hear our prayer.
Help us to shine bright to this world that is so full of
darkness. Bless the many ministries
that are in place spreading Your light.
We pray for Your blessings upon Crossing Cambodia, The Sending Place,
God’s Hidden Treasures, Capstone Ministries and the many others that seek to
reach the lost and broken across this planet.
Lord in Your Mercy, hear our prayer.
Dearest Father, help us to reflect Your light to our
nation. Lord, we are so
divided. Help us, Your people, to
stand apart from others by our actions.
Help us to speak in order to build others up, so that our words will
benefit those who listen. We pray
for Your blessings, Your truth and Your justice to flow upon our government
leaders, from the very least to the very greatest. Heal our country. Lord in Your Mercy, hear our prayer.
Help the Church, we at St. Andrews and the many other
believers who live in Stockton and the surrounding cities to shine bright in
our community. Please bless the
ministries that we have here at St. Andrews that work at spreading Your light
and love to others: The Good
Shepherd Family, Mops, New Life, LWML, Sunday School, H2H and the high school
youth. Continue to fill our
volunteers and staff with wisdom, patience and love so that they can continue
to serve You. Lord in Your Mercy, hear our prayer.
Open our eyes to those who are
struggling in our neighborhoods, our schools, our places of work and business. Help us to be kind and compassionate to
others, whether we feel that they deserve it or not. Lord please be with those who are struggling in our church
community. Those who are
struggling emotionally, those who are struggling with addiction, those who are
healing. Please be with those that
we name in our hearts…
Lord in Your Mercy, hear our prayer.
Thank You Father for those who selflessly give in order to
help the homeless in our city. We
pray that You will renew and strengthen those who work and volunteer at St. Mary’s
dining hall, the Gospel Center Rescue Mission, the homeless shelter and the
many other agencies that serve the homeless.
Lord in Your Mercy, hear our prayer.
Lord, we pray that You will help us to spread Your light in
our homes. Fill our hearts with
thankfulness. Lord it is so easy
to take those we love for granted- help us to not let the sun go down while we
are angry. Help us to forgive each
other, just as You forgive us.
Lord in Your Mercy, hear our prayer.
Father, help us to reflect the glory of Your son, each and
every day, everywhere that we go.
And all God’s people agree and say….Amen.
