Devotions - 16th of the month

Jesus Christ, Son of God, we ask for Your forgiveness.  In Your life, You showed God’s love through the forgiveness You gave to all who came to You in need.  Help us to seek and receive Your forgiveness for all that is wrong in our lives, and encourage us to help and pray for others who still do not know what to do with their troubles.  Give us courage to minister in Your name as those who know Your love, we pray: AMEN

Prayer ideas

Pray about the money you receive by way of wages or pension or other income.  Ask the Lord to show you how to use it for the best.

The Lord will come; He has never been slow.

  He delights to fulfil our needs.

 We long to be able to see the truth,

  so He comes in visions and in prayer …

 We seek to identify what must be done,

  so He comes as we read His Word …

 We ask to know how to do His will,

  so He comes with wisdom and strength …

 We need to tell the Good News of God,

  so He comes in our testimony of grace ...

 We try to give love and kindness to others,

  so He comes with His power to heal ...

 The Lord will come; He has never been slow.

  For Him, doing nothing is not an option.
