Personal Prayer
Praise God as the one who loves you like no one else can. Thank him for loving you “with an everlasting love,” drawing you to himself “with loving kindness” (Jer. 31:3). Confess times of presuming upon his love. Commit yourself to reflecting God’s love as his image-bearer. Ask him to love others through you, knowing that you can do all things through Christ (Phil. 4:13).

For Your Family and Friends
Pray that God’s love will be at least as fully evident in your home as in other relationships. Ask him to regularly prompt you to love your family and friends in ways they can identify.

For the Church
Pray that worship services around the world today will be beautiful reflections of God’s love back to him. Ask God to make love a key characteristic of your own congregation.

For the Kingdom
Pray that love for God’s ways will prompt you to love mercy (Mic. 6:8) in your societal involvements. Ask God to overcome hatred, violence, and prejudice in your area.

For People to Know Jesus
Pray that God’s people will have so much love for one another that all those around will know they are Jesus’ disciples (Jn. 13:35). Ask God to draw the observers to himself through that love.
