Memory verse for Week 1
"Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light for my path." Psalm 119v105
Give
thanks to God for his faithfulness in the year that is passed. Praise Him for his wisdom and guiding hand
and rejoice in the promise of His loving presence ‘hemming’ us in as we enter
2015.
Pray
that over the coming year many will respond to the gospel and receive the
promise of total forgiveness and complete freedom through Christ alone. May
people’s New Year Resolutions lead them to ask God’s help.
Pray
for those who are ill and in hospital that they might know God’s presence and a
good recovery. Pray for medical staff
who care for them. Pray too for family
who travel to visit loved ones in hospital and keep trying to keep routines at home
that they will be safe as they travel and have strength and energy to support
those who are ill.
Pray
for Small group leaders as they meet this week to begin the studies on
Jonah. Pray that as we study this story
within our congregation that we grow in our knowledge of God and love for
others.
Pray
for Street reach team as they go out again on Saturday evening.
Pray
for families of those who lost their lives in tragedies in this past week
remembering especially those who were killed on the Air Asia flight and also in
recent road accidents.
