Invocation prayer (before reading the Scripture)
Dear God
with the Bible in our hands
we ask You to draw near to us
in this, Your hour.
Speak forcefully through Your open page
to every corner of our hearts,
and as we reflect on Jesus and His love for us,
let our love for Him grow
for our salvation sake
and for the glory of Your precious Name.
Amen
Main Worship prayer
How great You are
our God and our Salvation,
that You have given Yourself to us,
through Your Son, Jesus Christ.
To die on the cross
while we were not yet born
to save us from sins not yet committed
and to call us to salvation.
How can we reject such a great offer
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
We bring to you our feeble members
the wayward, the struggling ones,
the widows and those who lost love ones.
Friend of broken hearts
mend relationships for people
and fill their cups till it overflows
with Love from on high.
Love unbound, Love excelling
We thank you for blessings,
blessings of health, of gifts, of daily bread.
And invite all to come
in this hour
to Your windows of heaven
so that You may rain blessings on their hearts today.
Answer their prayers
O my God
for their love ones
for their children
for their parents
for their sick ones
for the wayward
for the poor and needy
for the truth.
we all pray
in Jesus loving name,
Amen
