Prayer Calendar

Monday, 16 Mar 26

And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit. (Ephesians 2:22)\nAbba Father, we are sometimes quick to judge others and blind to our own faults, even when we proclaim you as our Lord. Forgive us, Lord and help us to have compassion for those people who especially irritate us. Bind us together in unity of spirit as some of us meet together at Connections and St John’s Online today. Amen.

Trust in him at all times, you people, pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge. (Psalm 62:8)\nAs the news of wars around the world creates uncertainty about our future, let’s pour out our hearts to God, who is in control of all things. Father God, in these times of uncertainty, we thank you that you cannot be shaken. We cling to you, asking you to help us to trust you more fully. Amen.

From one man, he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. (Acts 17:26-27)\nDear Lord, as Felbridge school visits our church this morning to learn about the history of Felbridge, we pray that they might sense your presence and that you would implant in them a deep longing and thirst to know you more fully. Help them to recognise you at work throughout history, so that they might seek you and reach out for you and find that you are near. Amen.

Jesus said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.’ (Matthew 19:14)\nDear Lord, we thank you for all the little children who are coming into our church this morning. We ask for your blessing upon them and their families. As they hear your message of love through listening to Bible stories, ignite in them a flame of love for you, which will never be extinguished. May our church be a place of joy, love, laughter and safety today. Amen.

Friday, 20 Mar 26

‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. (John 14:6)\nFather God, as the U3A meet in our church hall this afternoon, we thank you for blessing this group of people with curiosity and a love of learning. We pray that they might be prompted to examine the evidence for your resurrection for themselves and that in doing so you would draw them to yourself and reveal to them that you are the way, the truth and the life. Amen.

Saturday, 21 Mar 26

Let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them;\nLet all the trees of the forest sing for joy. (Psalm 96:12)\nDear Lord, as today is the International Day of Forests, we thank you for the beauty and blessing of trees. We ask you to bless the work of our mission partner, the Leakes in Argentina, as they seek to protect the rainforest there. We look forward to the day when you will judge the world in righteousness. Show us how to serve you faithfully until that day comes. Amen.

Sunday, 22 Mar 26

Almighty God, you alone can bring into order the unruly wills and affections of sinners: Grant your people grace to love what you command and desire what you promise; that, among the swift and varied changes of the world, our hearts may surely there be fixed where true joys are to be found; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
