PRAYERS FOR THE WEEK
“This is my Son, whom I have chosen; listen to him.” Luke 9:35 TO GOD: Father, thank you for your life-giving word which is ‘a
lamp for my feet, a light on my path’ (Psalm 119:105).
FOR THE CHURCH: Father, may we desire to know the mind of Christ. May we be like Lazarus’ sister Mary, ‘choosing the better part’, to sit at the Master’s feet (Luke 10:42).
FOR THE WORLD: We pray for prisons and prisoners throughout the world. Father, many lives have been corrupted by circumstance and sin; please renew their hearts and minds through faith in Christ.
FOR OUR NATION: We live in a culture of half-truths and unreality which sadly can become the drift of the church. May preachers once again be bold, declaring: “The word of the Lord says...”
FOR OUR FRIENDS: Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – may I talk about such things (Philippians 4:8).
FOR MYSELF: Lord God, may I take time today to come before you, and in the peace of your presence hear your still small voice. Amen.
NCT PRAYER
Oh Father, please lead me, equip me and fill me as I seek to follow you. In Jesus name. AMEN.

PRAYER FOR PERSONAL COMMITMENT
A PROMISE FROM GOD TO CLAIM:
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” The Lord Jesus stands outside our lives longing to be invited into them, and to make his eternal life real for us. What do we have to do? Pray the following prayer as your personal response to God!
A PRAYER TO OFFER TO GOD:
‘Lord Jesus Christ, I am sorry for the things I have done wrong in my life. I ask for your forgiveness and turn from everything that I know is wrong. Thank you for dying on the Cross for me to set me free from my sins. Please come into my life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and be with me forever. Thank you Lord Jesus. Amen.’
A PATHWAY TO WALK WITH GOD:
Jesus calls you to be his friend and share your life with Him. He will guide and strengthen you. He will not fail you or abandon you (Deut 31:6). He wants you to trust Him and obey what He says. It is the start of an exciting new life.
If you have made a commitment to a personal faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, we would love to hear details of your journey. You can write to us at: Nationwide Christian Trust Prayerline, Mulberry House, Chelmsford Road, High Ongar, Essex, CM5 9NL
