NEW YEAR REFRESHMENTS

Please join us for Refreshments at the Refreshment Area after the Worship Service.

Sunday, (Dec 25) – On this Christmas Day, may we remember the way and the manner in which our Lord Jesus came to earth. Pray that we will truly grasp the love of God who was willing to send His one and only begotten Son to earth. Pray that on this Christmas Day, we may renew our commitment to follow Jesus all the days of our lives. Pray that we be assured of God’s presence in our lives for Jesus is our Immanuel, God with us! Pray also that we would allow the presence of Christ to mold us and make us more like Jesus.

Monday, (Dec 26) – Commit to the Lord the upcoming Watchnight Service and as well as the All Night Prayer. Pray also for the Sunday Service (1st Jan). Pray that as we come together for these services, our hearts may be renewed and strengthen for the coming year. Pray that as we reflect on the year 2022, we would come to a realization of how God had been present in our lives. As God continues to be present in our lives each day and moment, pray that we will grow in our trust in Him as we enter into 2023.

Tuesday, (Dec 27) – Pray for health authorities to be vigilant of another Covid pandemic, given the dangers of the mutation and the difficulties of long Covid recovery. Pray for the churches to take the lead in bringing healing and reconciliation to a fractured nation, beginning with our relationships in the church to foster genuine unity and love for one another. Pray for a new hunger for God’s Word and diligent discipleship in order for lukewarm and backslidden Christians to grow into spiritual maturity in total obedience to the Lord’s commandments.

Wednesday, (Dec 28) – Pray for the Nation: Pray for God’s protection and early preparation in the most vulnerable areas of states such as Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang, Johor, Sabah, and Sarawak, as higher-than-average rainfall is expected due to the La Nina phenomenon, which can lead to more thunderstorms, floods, and even landslides. Continue to pray for the ongoing rescue search for victims still trapped in the recent Batang Kali landslide, as well as comfort for bereaved families who have lost loved ones. Pray against any advocacy of national, racial, or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to discrimination, hostility, or violence and threatens the legacy of multiculturalism that values compassion, kindness, acceptance, and inclusivity.

Thursday, (Dec 29) – TRAC – Commit to the Lord all pastors who would be going on transfer in 2023. As they come to the final week in their current parishes, pray that God will help them to move on to their next station well. Pray that friendships fostered will remain in the coming years. Pray also for all TRAC Churches that as we enter into the New Year, we may enter knowing that God is already there in the future for He is the God who is the same yesterday, today and forever (Hebrews 13: 8).

Friday, (Dec 30) – We give thanks to God for His faithful providence throughout the year 2022. May we take a moment to think about His guidance, grace and love for us during this year. May we come before Him with repentance for the things we have done to grieve Him, and receive His mercy and forgiveness. May we continue to trust His Sovereignty upon the things that He has allowed or not allowed to happen in our lives this year. May His Spirit fill us with a renewed love and passion for Him, and we may continue to depend on Him and remain in His love to be His disciple in the new year 2023, too.

Saturday (Dec 31) – Pray for the world. Pray for God’s intervention and His peace upon the war-torn and conflict areas. Pray for the Hope of His deliverance and restoration in the lives of those who are unwell, in despair, oppressed and marginalized. Pray for His Love and Joy of salvation to be experienced in a heart of every person. May God strengthen and make His Church an instrument of His peace as in the prayer of St. Francis, “…Where there is hatred, let me sow love. Where there is an injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, joy….”

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 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.
