Personal Prayer
Praise God that Jesus Christ is coming again to bring all things to perfection. Thank the Lord that you can anticipate dwelling with him in a new heaven and earth. Confess any attitudes or actions which are hindering the coming kingdom. Commit yourself to watching and praying, being ready for the coming of Christ. Ask that you may live in a way pleasing to God, so that he might say to you, “Well done, good and faithful servant” (Mt 25:21).
For Your Family and Friends
Pray that your family and friends will submit to one another out of reverence for Christ (Eph. 5:21).
For the Church
Ask God to make his people generous in giving their time and gifts for the benefit of others. Ask that the love of Christ will be evident in the care Christians give to each other.
For the Kingdom
Pray that those who suffer the effects of mental illness will find appropriate care. Remember also the families of these individuals.
For People to Know Jesus
Pray that the unsaved will see that “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Rom. 3:23), and find their justification in Christ.
