Beside The Burn
A short devotional video each week day.
This week from Revelation in preparation for our Communion Service On Sunday.
Let’s Pray For Moderator
Pray for the Moderator as he attends and participates in a number of General Assembly Council meetings during this week. Pray for the business conducted by the Councils and that the Moderator might be encouraged by his participation. Worship: Listen to God Today if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts. Psalm 95:8. Give thanks for how God speaks in worship and ask that he might give you a receptive heart to what he wants to say to you. James and Heather Cochrane (global mission workers, Portugal) Give thanks for the five small groups that recently began a new series, “Love your Church”. Pray that church members will be encouraged and challenged regarding their involvement in local church. Leaders in Training Pray for the 21 Leaders in Training, from ten overseas partners, who have received scholarships towards further studies in theology, leadership, communications, and development; especially that their studies will equip them for more effective ministry. |

Showing them Jesus in all that we say.

Keeping our thoughts pure, guarding our tongue,
We shall be courteous to old and to young
Serving the whole world both near and far,
Trusting in Jesus to give us His power.

Open Doors have created a bundle of World Cup resources to raise awareness and prayer for Christians who are robbed of more than a game.
Open Doors say -
