By

Prayer Rooms this week:

  • Today – 9am | 12 Bassett Street or on Zoom
  • Weds – 6:30pm | Newport Summer Session, 3rd Beach in Middleton RI

Opening Prayer

“O God of all the nations of the earth: Remember the multitudes who have been created in your image but have not known the redeeming work of our Savior Jesus Christ; and grant that, by the prayers and labors of your holy Church, they may be brought to know and worship you as you have been revealed in your Son; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.”

Scripture: Acts 4

23 On their release, Peter and John went back to their own people and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them. 24 When they heard this, they raised their voices together in prayer to God. “Sovereign Lord,” they said, “you made the heavens and the earth and the sea, and everything in them. 25 You spoke by the Holy Spirit through the mouth of your servant, our father David:

“‘Why do the nations rage
    and the peoples plot in vain?
26 The kings of the earth rise up
    and the rulers band together
against the Lord
    and against his anointed one.

27 Indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together with the Gentiles and the people of Israel in this city to conspire against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed. 28 They did what your power and will had decided beforehand should happen. 29 Now, Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness. 30 Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus.”

31 After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.

For Prayer

Read the passage again, slowly. Pay attention to what the Holy Spirit is breathing on or highlighting as you read. Begin praying from that place.

Ask the Lord:

  • Pray upward: How does this scripture leading me to praise God or give Him thanks?
  • Pray inward: How does this scripture reveal sin in my life or the lives of others or bringing conviction? How is it calling for repentance, a change of heart and mind?
  • Pray outward: How does this scripture lead me to pray for God’s Kingdom to come in my life, home, church, neighborhood, city?

Closing Prayer

O God the King Eternal, whose light divides the day from the night and turns the shadow of death into morning, drive far from us all wrong desires, incline our hearts to keep your law, and guide our feet into the way of peace, that having done your will with cheerfulness during the day, we may when night comes, rejoice to give you thanks, through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
