40 Day Prayer Devotional

Day 7 - April 29

Teach Us to Love

Scripture: "Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged." 1 Corinthians 13:4-5

Prayer Points:
• Lord, teach us to love you the way you love us.

• Lord, teach us to love others the way we love ourselves.

• Lord, teach us to love the lost so that in us they will see Jesus.

• Lord, use us to grow the Body of Christ to be strong and united in a way that would bring honour and glory to your name.

Day 8 - April 30

Light of the World

Scripture: “When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." John 8:12

Prayer Points:
• Ask the Lord to examine your walk by shining His ‘light’ on your life
and to reveal anything that hinders your witness for Him in the marketplace.
• Seek to encourage others to follow Jesus, not at a distance, but intimately and passionately as one who abides in Christ while ‘working’ in the world.
