Sunday, (Dec 18) – Baptism & Membership Service – We give thanks to God for His precious gift of His one and only Son, Jesus Christ to us. We give thanks to God for the salvation that comes to us through Jesus Christ. We commit to the Lord, these persons and children who will be baptized today. Pray that these persons and children will grow in their walk with God. Pray also that as we witness these baptisms, we may be reminded of our baptism and be thankful. Remember also those who would be received into membership today.

Monday, (Dec 19) – Christmas Eve Candlelight Service & Christmas Day Service – Commit to the Lord these two services. Pray that as we come to worship God, we may be reminded that we are the reason Jesus came. Jesus who is the light of world stepped down into darkness in order to save for us from the penalty of sin. Pray that as we come, we may be assured once again of the great love God lavished upon us as He sent His one and only begotten Son to us.

Tuesday, (Dec 20) – Pray for peace and hope to abound for the lost who have yet to know the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and have been troubled by natural disasters, conflict, and disease pandemics, knowing that only in Christ will they find hope and strength. Pray for all churches, both locally and globally, to continue to demonstrate Christ’s life in practical ways throughout the post-Covid social-economic recovery. Pray for countries devastated by flash floods and natural disasters that destroy homes and livelihoods, putting lives at risk, so that practical aid can be delivered to victims as soon as possible.

Wednesday, (Dec 21) – Pray for the Nation: Pray for unity among the PKR, DAP, BN, and other coalition parties so that they can work together and support one another to complete a full term with good results in addressing the priorities of economic and socio-political issues. Pray for the nation’s political stability as the Anwar Ibrahim-led unity government faces a vote of confidence when Parliament reconvenes on December 19, 2022. Pray for the new Health Minister Dr Zaliha Mustafa for the upcoming meeting with the representatives of the Hartal Doktor Kontrak Group in addressing the issues faced by contract doctors such as permanent positions, health commission and the ministry’s long-term plan.

Thursday, (Dec 22) – TRAC – We give thanks to the Lord for the recently concluded 47th Session TRAC. We praise God for all that He is doing among the churches in TRAC. We commit to the Lord all pastors who would be going on transfer in 2023. Pray for God’s grace and strength to be with them as they prepare to move into their new churches. Pray that friendships fostered in the current churches will continue on as we are one big family in Christ.

Friday, (Dec 23) – Pray for missionaries, families and friends, especially those who are away from their homeland. Pray that God will continue to fill each of them with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, as they reflect upon His guidance in 2022 and commit to His leading in the coming new year. Pray that they will be able to celebrate Christmas together with the people in their community to praise and give thanks to God. Pray for God’s continuous protection and guidance to be upon them, and that they will be able to experience His presence, hope, peace, joy and love during this season.

Saturday (Dec 24) – Pray for the world. Praise and Thanks be to God who so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son, our Lord Jesus, the greatest gift of all. May His Spirit empower us to proclaim the real meaning of Christmas and the good news of Lord Jesus. Pray that every person on the earth will be set free from the bondage of sins and oppressions, receive the forgiveness of sins and have eternal life in our Lord Jesus. May every knee shall bow at His name and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
