Day EIGHT: Thursday, 28 May

LEAD! …and lead us not into temptation…


Lord Jesus Christ, You are the good Shepherd.

You are the Head of the Church and the Author and Finisher of our faith.

You promised that the Father will send us the Holy Spirit as a Comforter and Guide to lead us into all truth and to remind us of every word had spoken.

We confess that You have the words of eternal life, and express our desire to follow You and to be Your disciples.

Your Word is a lamp for our feet and light for our paths.

Lead us on paths of righteousness for Your Name’s sake.

Fill us with such love and zeal for You that we will not be moved by the temptations of materialism, power and sexual perversion.

Help the Church to walk in the light of your Word and with such wisdom that we will fulfill Your purposes throughout the earth.

Guide those who are leading others in the spheres of government, education and business, to set an example of godliness and integrity so that the curse of corruption can be broken throughout cities and economies.

Give parents and teachers godly wisdom to guide the coming generations to follow in Your ways and not divert to evil paths and destructive ways.

Amen.
LEAD:
Ask God...
for Christians to be filled with such love and zeal to please God that they are unmoved by enticements of materialism and sexual perversity.

for God's people to continue walking in the light of His Ways and wisdom in order to fulfill His Purposes throughout the earth.

that Christ would guide leaders of business, education and government so that the curse of corruption would be overcome throughout cities and entire economies.

"...and will heal their land..."
2 Chronicles 7:14

PREPARING to be transformed: Expect God to bring great changes throughout your community, your home, some coming slowly and others suddenly. Renew your hope for the earth to be restored, sick societies lifted and relationships healed.
