Monthly Prayer Calendar for July

Pray in thanksgiving for God’s presence in our lives:

  • Thank you, Lord, for being the strength of my life. Psalm 27:1
  • Thank you, Lord, for replacing our tears with your joy!
  • Thank you, Lord, for healing of loved ones.
  • Thank you, Lord, that You make everything beautiful in Your time. Ecclesiastes 3:11
  • Thank you, Lord, that flowers are blooming!

Pray for our brothers and sisters in Christ:

  • Those in fragile health with deteriorating conditions or going through medical treatment
  • Those in nursing or homebound care who are more isolated than others.
  • Those dealing with the coronavirus pandemic – patients, medical staff, researchers, caregivers, essential workers, leaders involved in bringing our nation back to “normal”, those who are afraid of contracting the virus, those who are still coming down with the virus
  • To be rich in good deeds, and be generous and willing to share as Timothy instructed. 1 Timothy 6:18
  • Those who are fearful about returning to work – Pray that they may have faith in the goodness of God and His power over the ills of the world.
  • Those who need an encouraging word, being prepared to give the reason for the hope that you have. 1 Peter 3:15
  • Those figuring out how to spend summer days without the usual recreational outlets
  • For those facing challenges that nature causes

Pray for CCC:

  • Pray that our worship may follow the example of joy God expressed over us, His creation. The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing. Zephaniah 3:17
  • For wisdom in planning for returning to in-person worship in the future
  • For the new Sunday School virtual meetings for children that will start next week
  • To be good stewards over what God has provided
  • For ways to fellowship with other Christians in this time of social distancing
  • To think of the needs of others before our own as Jesus did

To Think About: In Proverbs, God’s guide to living, we are reminded patient, gentle words used over a period of time can be as persuasive as breaking a bone.  Be patient and you will finally win, for a soft tongue can break hard bones.  Proverbs 25:15 TLB

 

 

禱告事項

感謝主每日同行：

  • 感謝主！因你是我生命的力量的源頭。詩篇27：1
  • 感謝主用你的喜樂替代了我們的眼淚。
  • 感謝主醫治我們的親人。
  • 感謝主使萬物各按其時成為美好。傳道書3：11

為主內弟兄姊妹禱告：

  • 為身體軟弱和接受治療的肢體禱告，願主醫治使他們盡快康復。
  • 為老人院或居家需要特別看護的長輩們禱告，他們比常人更覺孤單時，願聖靈的關愛、平安和喜樂與他們同在。
  • 為在這場疫情中奮戰的人們禱告——病人、醫護人員、研發人員、看護者、事關民生的工作人員、為在上掌權的有智慧保護國家安全和經濟回歸正常平穩禱告、為擔心被病毒感染的人禱告、為被病毒侵染的人禱告。
  • 讓我們謹遵提摩太前書6：18中的教導：要行善，在善事上富足，慷慨好施。
  • 為擔心回去工作的人禱告，願他們相信神的良善和掌管世上疾病的能力。
  • 彼得前書3：15中說只要心裡尊主基督為聖，有人問你們心中盼望的緣由，就要常作準備，以溫柔、敬畏的心回答各人；所以我們也要用盼望和鼓勵的言語激勵別人。
  • 為缺乏常規休閑娛樂場所下，計劃暑期各種活動的人禱告。
  • 為面對大自然挑戰的人禱告。

為教會的需要禱告：

  • 願我們喜樂地讚美神，如同造我們的主因我們的快樂而歡喜。耶和華你的神是施行拯救、大有能力的主，他在你中間必因你歡欣喜樂，默然愛你，且因你喜樂而歡呼。（西番雅書3：17）
  • 求主讓我們在教會重新開放的籌劃中得屬天的智慧。
  • 為下星期開始的網絡兒童主日學禱告。
  • 為我們成爲神的好管家禱告，讓我們能按照神的心意管理神賞賜我們的財務。
  • 為在社交隔離狀態下與主内肢體之間靈裏交通的方式禱告。
  • 讓我們優先考慮別人的需要，正如耶穌所行的那樣。

思考：上帝在箴言中賜智慧指導我們的生活，神提醒我們要有耐心，時常言語柔和，才有説服力。箴言25：15：恆常忍耐可以勸動君王，柔和的舌頭能折斷骨頭。
