August Prayers 2017

                          


Theme for August:   Maintaining the good life!


Your life is like a song, a melody that is continuing to play on. So continue your life, your journey with confidence knowing that you are loved and your story does matter! Your unique way of telling the message of love reaches many! Rejoice in the changes you experience, the new people and the new ways of doing things. 





How do we maintain our lives in the daily grind and stay on the right track, keeping our lives happy and free? 






 

Keep good lyrics in your song. Think the best of the future and of others. Say only good things about others and be thankful for everything. Keep the melody simple. Do what you love because that's what you will do best. Make a catchy chorus with the message in a short simple form. Find the best way for you to remember the good, and the best way for you to share it. Put on the best tunes! Surround yourself with people who bring out the best in you!  

Check this out! Couldn't of said it better! 

"God is ready to fill your life with good things! He wants to keep you young and strong. Do your part and make room for Him. Every morning empty out the guilt. Empty out the worry. Empty out the discouragement. And when the impurities come, when the infections come, don't let it stay, let it pass on through. Keep your heart pure. If you do this, I believe and declare you're going to step up to a new level with more joy, more peace, more favour, healing, wholeness, the fullness of your destiny, in Jesus name!" Joel Osteen

 "Just because you have a reason to be negative because of things that happened in the past, once you know the truth then we have no right to stay that way because God is offering a better life. But it's gotta be according to His way of getting there, not our own way." Joyce Myer

What we are praying for:

God we pray for our neighbours to have the joy of living, that they know they are loved and make the right choices that release the power of love in their lives! Help them to know what to pray for themselves and their family and help them to know how they are to reach out to others. 

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 those in authority positions to solve the opioid epidemic in North America. Help all involved in drug addiction to break free and heal. Help those who have lost loved ones to drug overdose to heal and open their hearts to your comfort.  Save our young people and grant them your wisdom concerning drugs.

Help our religious groups to seek your presence and your wisdom and take their place in helping the members of our society to heal.

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!

July Prayers 2017

Theme for this month:

Everyone is important! We need everyone in the big picture of life on planet Earth! 

We are growing stronger, wiser, but only together can we do this.

Without you life for many just wouldn't be as good!



 
Big Daddy Weave, "Without You", click here.

Dream Girls, "Family", click here.

  



Give yourself permission to dream again!
Watch Awaken The Heroes, click here.







Without a strong foundation a building can't stand, without walls the roof falls down. 
The same way we all have a part to play in life. Know yourself. Know your place. 
And know you are needed, you are appreciated, you are loved! 
Know your limits, concentrate on your strengths. 
Do your best and leave the rest! 


See the big picture which includes everyone. Don't be afraid to give your share. 
But, don't be afraid to take your share too.




On Mother Earth we are one big family! Like a tree we can grow stronger, wiser, we can grow free. But we must stay rooted in love for this to be possible.
Where would we be without Spirit, without wisdom from above? What would fill our emptiness? What would heal our brokenness? Would the sun continue to shine and if it did would we still appreciate it's beauty?
How can we ever learn to appreciate and love ourselves and each other except through the wisdom and love that comes from above?








What we are praying for:

God, help us to know who we are and our purpose in this life.
Help us and our neighbours to recognize our abilities and talents and make the right choices so we can benefit not only ourselves, but those around us as well. Help us to know that we do count and grant us the wisdom to take care of ourselves and the gifts that come from above.


Help us to hear your wisdom and put our heart and soul into planning for the future. Help everyone in our neighbourhood to know you God, and hear your wisdom in all their plans for their lives. Help us all to follow your Spirit's leading and give you the thanks and glory due you!


Help everyone to know that they are important, and have the love in their hearts to honour those around them. Help us all to remember that everyone counts and that together we are stronger and free!


God, we pray for peace throughout the World. Help the countries to unite and win the war over terrorism. Help each country to know how they are to support refugees.

June Prayers 2017

                          

We are powerful! Everything is possible! Are you a believer?!
Without Spirit we cannot love as we should and we cannot know ourselves.

Pride + Spirit = Identity

You were created out of love. You are love, you are empowered, you are creative, you are beautiful! 
Know yourself! Your life will touch so many people that no one can reach!

This Months Theme:

We are looking forward and including everyone.
We are talking about acceptance and understanding for all!
The theme for Pride Toronto includes the “+” sign.
The "+" sign makes reference to the diversity of people and voices at the event, as well as their hope to add new perspectives. (Taylor Simmons,CBC News)

Do those of the minority groups and diverse communities including the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered and Queer Community count in the big picture of life on this Earth? What do they have to contribute to the Kingdom of God here and in Eternity?

For example, in the Gay community there has been tremendous outpouring of love for decades in the form of fundraising and moral support for those in need who are part of the community. Also there are plenty of opportunities for upcoming talent to shine and grow such as the establishments opening their stages for the entertainers to perform. It is a complete world in it's self where love and support abound for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered and Queer population. 

You will find love and support for those in minority groups and smaller communities all over the GTA. Where there is love, there is God, for God inspires love and is love! So let's pray for our neighbours, even if they identify with another group or community that is different than ours. We are all born from the same place, that is, we are all born out of love!





What we are praying for:

God, fill our hearts with your love. Help us and all those in our community and in our neighbourhood to show acceptance and undertanding of those who are different than us in race, religion or culture. Help us to see the humanity in every individual and embrace them as family. Give us the courage to believe 
that in showing love we truly will experience healing in ourselves and see it in those around us. Protect all those who choose your ways of love. 
Help everyone to respect other's points of view and be willing to listen and learn.

Help us to realize the presence of the Holy Spirit and yeild to the changes the Holy Spirit brings. 
Help us to follow your leading and let you fill our hearts with your love.

Protect all who are attending festivals and fund raisers this month. Let no acts o violence succeed. May they be stopped before they start. 
May everyone have the chance to experience your love and joy at these events. 
May the city of Toronto be kept in peace throughout this month.

God, help the crisis in Africa where people are starving. Help those countries to find peace and give help to those in need.


God, we pray for peace throughout the World. Help the countries to unite and win the war over terrorism. Help each country to know how they are to support refugees.


God, help all the civilian population to stop fighting among themselves. 
Help the churches, social organizations to do their part in supporting and teaching young people the ways of love and acceptance.






God, we pray for the safety of all who participate in fundraisers throughout the GTA this month. We pray that all groups reach their goals!

God, we pray for all fathers that you watch over, protect and guide with your wisdom and love.





Scriptures:

2 Corinthians 10:4. NIV
The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. 
On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.

John 16:13. NLT
When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth.


  Galatians 3:28. NIV
There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free,
 nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
Romans 13:10. NLT
Love does no wrong to others, so love fulfills the requirements of God's law.



1 Corinthians 13:1-13. NIV
If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 
If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, 
but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,
but do not have love, I gain nothing.





Where there is the Spirit, there is love.
In the Spirit there is truth, love,
peace, joy, patience,
understanding,
and all that is inclusive,
and all that is good!

Love is the key to humanity,
Love is the key to every dream!


Thank you for praying for your neighbourhood!!
