#ThyKingdomCome 2019

12/6/2019

0 Comments

 
We recently joined in with a worldwide prayer initiative called Thy Kingdom Come, where Christians of all nations were encouraged to pray hard for the ten days between Ascension Day (Thursday 23rd May) and Pentecost (Sunday 2nd June). As a church we love to pray all the time, but there was something special about joining together with so many other churches and individuals to pray for God's Kingdom to come.
What does it mean to pray, "Thy (or Your) Kingdom come"? It means we want to see God recognised and honoured as the rightful ruler of our world and our lives. And we want to see all the benefits of that in lives changed, relationships restored and communities turned around. We were all encouraged to pray for five people who don't yet know and love Jesus to put their trust in Him for the first time, but we also enjoyed praying for our whole town.
We even got featured on Exeter Diocese's video round-up of the various prayer events across the county! Click below and watch out for Sherford on the video. If you listen in you'll hear our two big hopes and prayers for Sherford: that the town and its people would flourish, and that many would respond to the good news of the Lord Jesus and find the ultimate fulfilment that only He can bring.
