Evening Prayers August 27th 2020



 

Spirit of God

You are the breath of creation

The wind of change

Speak through our thoughts and dreams tonight 

 

Song “I raise a hallelujah”

Forgive me my closed mind

And break down the barricades of my heart

So I can embrace new ways of being

 

We say the Lord’s Prayer in our own language

 

Reading Acts 28

 

28 “Therefore I want you to know that God’s salvation has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will listen!” [29] 

30 For two whole years Paul stayed there in his own rented house and welcomed all who came to see him. 31 He proclaimed the kingdom of God and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ—with all boldness and without hindrance!

 

Prayer 

 

We pray tonight for those in lockdown, for those who work in schools, for the people of Minnesota, Belarus Hong Kong and Syria and all those we know who need our help and prayers who we carry in our hearts tonight. 

 

Spirit of the Living God present with us now enter their bodies, minds and spirits and heal them of all that harms them. Let your angels be beside them at this time and protect them. In Jesus Name we pray.  

 

Closing Responses

 

In the depth of silence

No words are needed

We are just called to listen

To the movement of the Spirit

And in the midst of confusion

To hear your voice. 

 

 Amen.
