Evening Prayers September 16th 2020, 晚上祈禱2020年9月16日



 

In a world of great wealth

Where many are hungry

Many persecuted

Guide us into the way of hope, justice and love

 

Song “Lead kindly light”

Loving God, we are fragmented and conflicted, 

We speak of liberation and oppress

We speak of peace and are violent

Help us to love and not hate 

Even in these dark days. Amen

 

We say the Lord’s Prayer in our own language

 

Reading Romans 5v10 we were brought back to God by the death of his Son, what blessings he must have for us now that we are his friends and he is living within us!

 

It is a difficult thing for someone to die for a righteous person. It may even be that someone might dare to die for a good person. 8 But God has shown us how much he loves us — it was while we were still sinners that Christ died for us. 

 

We pray tonight for those in lockdown, for kids and teaching staff, for doctors and health workers, for people who are isolated and exhausted, for the people of Belarus, Syria, Yemen and Hong Kong, for the unrest in the US and the chaos in the UK and all those we know who need our help and prayers who we carry in our hearts tonight. 

 

Spirit of the Living God present with us now enter their bodies, minds and spirits and heal them of all that harms them. Let your angels be beside them at this time and protect them. In Jesus Name we pray.  

 

Closing Responses

 

In the depth of silence

No words are needed

We are just called to listen

To the movement of the Spirit

And in the midst of confusion

To hear your voice. 

 

 Amen.

在一個充滿財富的世界

那裡很多人餓了

許多人受到迫害

引導我們走上希望,正義和愛的道路

愛上帝,我們支離破碎,相互矛盾,

我們談論解放與壓迫

我們談論和平,充滿暴力

幫助我們愛而不恨

即使在這些黑暗的日子裡。阿門

 

我們用自己的語言主禱文

 

讀羅馬書5v10…我們被他兒子的死帶回了上帝,既然我們是他的朋友,並且他生活在我們裡面,那麼他必須給我們帶來什麼祝福!

 

有人為義人而死是一件困難的事情。甚至可能有人敢為一個好人而死。 8但是神向我們展示了他有多愛我們-正是在我們還是罪人的時候,基督為我們而死。

 

今晚,我們為禁閉者,孩子和教學人員,醫生和衛生工作者,為孤立和精疲力竭的人們,白俄羅斯,敘利亞,也門和香港人民,為美國的動亂和混亂而祈禱。在英國,以及我們認識的所有今晚需要我們幫助和祈禱的人。

 

與我們同在的永生上帝的靈現在進入他們的身體,思想和精神,並醫治他們所有傷害他們的東西。此時,讓您的天使在他們旁邊並保護他們。我們奉耶穌的名祈禱。

 

結束回應

 

在寂靜的深處

無需

我們只是被要求聽

為了聖靈的運動

在混亂中

聽到你的聲音。

 

 阿們
