We believe in the healing power of prayer. Therefore we bring the following requests to God’s Throne of Grace:
Sunday 16 December – “Lord when I am dry, You fill me up with Your love and mercy. Thank You!”
Monday 17 December – Celebrate the birthdays of friends by praying for them today: Spencer Gunn (16); Jasmine Perez (16); Gwen Hancock (18); Samantha Coury (21); John Ochetti (21); Andrea & Rev. Marcelo Gómez (21).
Tuesday 18 December – “Lord, there is at least one person in my life who is waiting for me to invite him or her to our Christmas services. Lead me to that person and give me the words to say.”
Wednesday 19 December – Thank God for the knowledge that He is with you always.
Thursday 20 December – Please remember God’s work in East Africa as you pray for peace in Sudan, which is tenuous at best after decades of civil war. Pray for lasting peace and for a government open to Christianity in Sudan.
Friday 21 December – Pray that the Lord would add pastors, deacons and deaconesses to the ranks of those who currently minister in the Japan Lutheran Church. Ask for the Lord’s special blessing on all the members of the theological education committee of the Japan Lutheran Church, especially the work of the program director, Rev. Mamoru Saito.
Saturday 22 December – “Come, Lord Jesus. Continue to prepare my heart to celebrate Your blessed birth in Bethlehem.”
