2 Chronicles 7:14
14 if my
people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my
face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will
forgive their sin and will heal their land.
Street
Pastors
We pray for the Street Pastors out in Glasgow on Friday and Saturday
nights.
We pray for divine appointments, that the Street Pastors will be used to
tell others of Jesus.
We pray that they will see lives touched and changed.
We pray that as they walk the streets God will give us the city for his
glory,
We pray for every place their feet tread.
Lord, continue to bless this ministry amongst the people of Glasgow and
let your Sovereign will be done.
Influences
on Young People
We pray for young people and the things that influence
them, friends, the media, magazines, internet sites, teachers, churches,
advertising.
Lord our young people have so much information overload
around them that it can be so difficult for them to make wise choices and stay
safe emotionally, physically and spiritually.
Lord we pray for strong positive role models in the
media, in their schools, in their social lives and in their families.
Lord we pray in Jesus’ name against the powers that are
working against young people from taking the right paths.
We pray particularly for Christian families and their
children that you will keep the Scripture that they have been taught in their
hearts and keep drawing them to yourself.
Lord, keep our children safe, in Jesus’ name we ask.
Families
We thank God for families. We thank God for the
blessings of children, siblings, parents, our wider families and our friends
that are as close as family.
We pray for those who are lonely or estranged from
their family.
We pray that the council and those who make decisions
support healthy family values in their policies and provision.
We pray for schools as they support families.
We think of those in our communities who struggle in
their family environment and particularly for those children who do not have a
happy home.
God grant peace, comfort, wisdom, reconciliation and
love in these situations.
