 Prayer for Sawston No. 12 February 2010
Living as Children of Light
Thank God that we are seeing so many prayers answered as we pray ‘Your kingdom come’
It is lovely that more people are signing up to this prayer sheet.
Ephesians 4. 25 to 5. 2
v.25 we are all members of one body
Thank God for the week of prayer for Christian unity when representatives of all the Sawston churches came together to pray. Remember we are Christians Together in Sawston. Pray again for all the leaders, give them courage and strength.
v.27 Do not give the devil a foothold
The devil is defeated by Christ completely. He cannot even get a foothold unless we give it to him. Pray that all Christians really understand this to help them live victorious lives in all circumstances.
v. 30 Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God with whom you were sealed on the day of redemption
You are sealed by the Holy Spirit who prays in you and through you. Keep your prayers for Sawston in line with what the Holy Spirit is saying to you so that you do not grieve him. If God is saying something please share it.
v. 32 Be kind and compassionate, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you
Pray that the gospel of forgiveness may be known throughout this village. Pray that we become a beacon to other communities.
v. 2 Live a life of love just as Christ loved us
Give thanks for every situation where love reigns supreme and particularly where you see Christ already in the world.
Give thanks for all the evangelism happening whether by events or individuals and pray that it is supremely motivated by love.
Remember our Medical Centre this winter working to bring healing and compassion.
v. 2 and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God
Jesus gave himself up for us so take time to receive that truth for yourself. As you pray for others God knows your need and longs to show you more of his offering to you. Prayer can be very relaxing and enjoyable.
We meet on Thursday February 4th at John Huntingdon House from 1 p.m. to 2p.m.
If you would like to pass this onto someone else and they wish to have a personal copy please suggest they send their e mail address to Carolyn Bridges at g_bridges@lineone.net
