Scriptural Ground

 

We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to offer ourselves as a model for you to imitate (2 Thessalonians 3:9 NIV).

 

Prayer of Approach

 

Eternal God, you order our footsteps day by day. You work to bring to pass what you have purposed that your Name may be glorified in us. Cause your presence to shine forth from our lives that those around us may desire to know you more deeply. Support our efforts to serve you and provide us with the strength that enables us to be faithful to you. Bring us into harmony with your will that it may be known that you do rule in the circumstances of those who dwell on the earth.

In the Name of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, hear this prayer.

Amen.

 

A Moment With God

 

What is our main concern as our lives unfold? Are we interested in the impact for God that our various activities can have upon those who share life with us? The living God invites us to be vehicles of His saving grace to those in need where we live and therefore we must choose wisely the paths that are laid out before us as we go from day to day. Let us ensure that those who need an example of what can be accomplished in a life dedicated to the service of Almighty God find in us the inspiration to pursue such a path that they too may bring honour, glory and praise to the Name of God who has given us all the gift of life.
