For Your Prayers this week

For Your Prayers

“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us,” (Hebrews 12: 1) Believers who the Lord has taken to Himself, including Margaret Hickling, bear witness to us about the life of faith and service to God that they lived, and spur us to follow their example. Therefore, as we understandably mourn and grieve Margaret’s passing, please also take time to note and give thanks for aspects of her faith which encourage you and prayerfully ask how her example challenges you to walk more in step with God.

Monday- Responding to God’s Word & Pastoral Prayers.

• “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.” (James 1: 22) From what was preached yesterday, what is the Holy Spirit calling you to do?

• Following Margaret’s passing please pray for God to comfort and strengthen Mickey, Lorraine, other family and friends, and us, her church family at TRBC. Please pray that Margaret’s funeral on Wednesday will honour God, be a fitting send off for her, and that God will strengthen believers and draw unbelievers to know Him.

Tuesday - Praying for Outreach Events.

• Please pray that all organisational matters for the Watoto choir will be effectively completed; that unbelievers will give their life to Christ and believers will rededicate their lives to Him.

• Please pray that the follow up of those who commit their lives to Christ will be fruitful.

• Please pray for opportunities to share Christ and pray for people at Book Table Ministry on 25th June. Please try to come along.

Wednesday - Prayer for Persecuted Believers & Pastoral Prayers

• Facing intense pressure, sadly some Indian Christians are reconverting to Hinduism. Please pray that they will renounce their action and return to faith in Christ.

• Please pray that God will uphold Michael Wren as he continues to have treatment for his lymphoma. Please pray that Ps. Alan’s treatment schedule will return to normal, and that the Lord will strengthen and restore him.

Thursday - Prayer for our Nation. As believers we rightly grieve and deplore the murder of Henry Nowak and attack on Stephen Ogilvie, praying for his speedy and full recovery. In both cases while their family asked that the incident is not used to divide communities, ungodly actions fuelled by lies and hatred have led to violence and people being traumatised. Ephesians 6: 12 tells us “our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Please pray that God will turn the hearts of those fuelling hatred and sin, so they become the voices of love and peace. Please pray for God to provide for and restore everyone affected by these ungodly acts. Please pray that when you hear anyone speaking such lies, God will grant you the courage to speak up against these sins.

Friday - Prayer for World Events.

• Please pray that leaders of nations severely affected by the war in the Middle East and Ukraine/Russia, to be led by God to act so there is lasting peace and an end to violence.

Please pray for God to comfort those that mourn, particularly the fatherless and widows, and bring healing to the injured.

• Please pray for courageous people to speak truth to power to ensure that the marginalised are never forgotten but serve.

• Please pray for the Ebola crisis to end soon and for effective vaccines and treatments to be developed.

Saturday: Please pray that God will open doors for everyone seeking employment, housing, and that He will meet people’s other visible and invisible needs. Please ask the Lord how you can help to meet these needs. Please pray that God will grant the leadership and congregation wisdom as we seek to address the church’s heating issues.

Sunday: Please pray for yourself and everyone who gathers at TRBC to worship the Lord in spirit and in truth. Please pray that each of us will hear and respond to His specific word to us. Please pray that through these gatherings, our love and service to God

Remember those in conflict zones around the world and areas af- fected by natural disaster especially Southern African countries affected by flood and Syria and Turkey. Pray for peace and relief respectively.
Thank God for the work He is doing through Pastor Kumar. Continue to commit God’s work here to God in prayer. Pray that God will use all of us to glorify His Holy name and expand His kingdom.

Pray for those who are elderly and sick in our fellowship. Pray that they receive good and effective medical care and support. Pray also for all their carers.

Pray for students preparing for exams especially those preparing for their final / certificate exams.
