October Prayers 2017

                       


More videos for October:

Morning By Morning, Dan Macaulay.

Find You Here, Ellie Holcomb.





Theme for this month:

Be thankful in everything you do!

Let's be thankful for all the good things we have! Good food, good home, good friends, good memories!! Let's spread love and joy to all our family and friends, and don't forget those in our neighbourhood who are in need! Give as you can to those who have suffered loss. Let God's peace and love fill your heart to guide you!

Why the video this month?

Look at the people with signs in the video. Sometimes we have to look for the blessings in our lives. But focusing on what we do have
gives a better perspective. Even if we don't have friends to call on, we can call on God who will give us inner strength and change the negative to positive
and sometimes do it through others coming into our lives and sometimes through means we never thought possible! 

 



What we are praying for: 
God, we pray that families will be reunited, restored and their hearts filled with peace and love. We pray that those who feel alone will find peace in their hearts and find family among friends. May those who have lost loved ones feel your peace and comfort and find joy in their memories especially during the seasonal times of celebration. Help those who have suffered loss of any kind to receive your comfort that heals and your light that brings clear direction.
Hear our prayer, God of loving kindness.
Thank you, God of loving kindness.



God we pray that all festivals, fundraisers and events are safe for all who participate and those who attend 
and that all have a good experience with love, joy and peace!




God we pray for world peace. Please stop nations who have intent to harm through armament or cyber attacks from attaining the resources to do so. Grant all governments and rulers the chance to negotiate peaceably and the willingness to do so. May the rulers of all countries have the desire to seek your wisdom and use it for peace.
God, help our religious groups to seek your presence and your wisdom and take their place in helping the members of our society to heal.

Scriptures:

Colossians 3:15-17 English Standard Version
And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Phillipians 4:6 English Standard Version
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

1 Thessalonians 5:18 English Standard Version
Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

Colossians 2: 6-7
<Walk with God throughout your life and let the Holy Spirit fill your heart with thankfulness towards God, for God is faithful no matter the circumstances and will answer your needs.>
