Most loving Lord,
give us a steadfast heart,
which no unworthy thought
can drag downwards;
an unconquered heart,
which no hardship can wear out;
and upright heart,
which no worthless purpose can ensnare.

Give us also, O Lord our God,
understanding to know You,
diligence to seek You
and a faithfulness that will finally embrace You;
through Jesus Christ, my Lord.

St Thomas Aquinas (1255 – 1274)

Sunday, (Mar 6) – God said to Cain, “if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it”. Let us pray that we would seek God’s grace in overcoming sin in our lives. Pray that we would not allow anger, hatred or bitterness to rule our hearts but rather we would allow the fruit of the Spirit which is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control to take root in our hearts.

Monday, (Mar 7) – Pray for the Church: Commit the youths of our church to the Lord. Pray that our youths will desire to grow in their relationship with God. Pray that God would surround our youths with people who may be able to spur them on towards good deeds. Pray that God would raise more godly people who would be willing to journey with our younger generation. Pray especially for our youths who are currently sitting for their SPM examination. Pray for God’s guidance to be with them and may they glorify God through their hard work.

Tuesday, (Mar 8) – Pray in this season of Lent, we commit the Ukrainian people in prayer and make peace a goal of our Lenten fasting. Pray as to reflect on ourselves the importance of discovering God’s will for our lives and allow God’s power to manifest through our own weakness in our daily struggles and pains. Pray for God’s protection of our hearts and minds not to be led astray by any forms of temptations. Pray that our souls will be nourished by the heavenly food of God’s Word.

Wednesday, (Mar 9) – Pray for the Nation: Continue to pray fervently for a downward trend in daily Covid-19 cases. Pray that the country’s overall occupancy rate, which has surpassed 50 percent in both ICU and non ICU wards, does not continue to rise and that it is able to handle the increase in Covid-19 and non Covid patients. Pray for the long embattling court cases of high-profile persons being swiftly brought to justice for corruption and misappropriation of public funds, and for our country’s practices of transparency, accountability, and integrity to be restored.

Thursday, (Mar 10) – Pray for TRAC: Pray for all TRAC Churches. In this season of Lent, pray that the church will do all that she can to draw closer to the Lord. Pray that churches in TRAC will take the time to ponder on all that Jesus has accomplished for us. Pray that God will open our eyes and our ears to see and hear what God continues to do in our churches. May this season of Lent be a season whereby our churches will re-examine themselves and allow God to lead them as a church respectively.

Friday, (Mar 11) – Pray for the students who are sitting for the SPM exam. Pray for God’s protection be upon them physically, psychologically, and emotionally while they study in the midst of the pandemic, so that they can sit for the exam in the best possible condition. Pray that God will lead them through their exam preparation and help them to get the most out of it. Pray for God’s guidance and wisdom upon the Education Ministry and schools as they prepare for a new set of exams for those who are unable to participate this round due to covid and other issues.

Saturday (Mar 12) – Pray for the World. Pray for God’s divine intervention upon Russia’s ceasefire in Ukraine. Pray that His justice and peace will prevail, and He will guide world leaders in their efforts to bring reconciliation to Russia and Ukraine. Pray for God’s protection be upon the innocent residents and those forced to flee their home, as well as for the sufficient humanitarian aids to reach them. Pray for God’s comfort and healing be upon those who have lost loved ones, those who have been wounded, and those who have suffered tremendously. Pray that God will sustain and unite His people for peace.

Loving Father,
Thank you for the inestimable gift of salvation
that is given to all who trust
in the name of the Lord.

We thank You that the way
into the paradise of God
has been reopened
through the shed blood of our Lord Jesus.

Through His blood, our sins
which are past, present and future
are forgiven.

We pray that forgiveness may be a quality
that we seek to develop
so that we may show forth
the love of Christ through our lives.
In Jesus name we pray.

AMEN
