Hi everyone,
I hope you have had a good week so far and have been able to enjoy some of the bank holiday. There is of course lots going on in the next few days in relation to the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, let’s pray it’s a great weekend and that it also provides us with many opportunities to share the gospel.
When it comes to praying for our leaders, 1 Timothy 2:1-4 gives us direct instruction:
“I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Saviour, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.”
Let’s be praying for the Queen in these days and giving thanks for her strong Christian faith and witness. As well as that, let’s take it as an opportunity to engage with things going in our local community, getting to know our neighbours and being salt and light wherever we are.
