Consider using the "Prayer with Kingdom Intercession" steps listed below and described in more detail here. Each day, we will have a different kingdom focus and will offer prompts to guide certain steps related to that day's intention.
Today's Kingdom Focus
- Our church family, its leaders & work -
1 | INVOCATION
Call on God as the “Lover of His people,” the One in unfailing relationship with those who love Him.
2 | ADORATION
Praise God for His holiness and that He has made His Church holy through Jesus.
3 | CONFESSION
Confession acknowledges sinfulness and discloses personal sin before God, seeking forgiveness and restoration to fellowship with Him.
4 | PETITION
Ask God to do His will and reveal areas where our church and church leadership can grow in faithfulness to Him.
5 | SELF-DEDICATION
Self-Dedication involves devoting self to God and the place He gives you to bring Him glory and do others good. Commit your prayers, yourself and your service to Him.
6 | THANKSGIVING
Thank God for the group of believers He has placed around you.
7 | BLESSING + CLOSE
Blessing is the final expression of praise, devotion and worship concluded with “In Jesus Name, Amen” as your closing confession in Him - “Let it be so, in Jesus according to Your will.”
Family Worship
A similar and simplified model to pray with young kids is called PART | Praise, Admit, Request and Thanksgiving. Use today's kingdom focus of our church family, its leaders & work to guide a short prayer time with your children in the morning, during dinner, before bed or even in the car!
