May 8th - 14th
"Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.”
Matthew 6:11-12
(Giving and Forgiving)
Are you willing to have God meet your needs His way?
For what do you need forgiveness?
Who do you need to forgive?
This third week of prayer is centered on requesting the provision of God both materially (Daily Bread) and spiritually (Forgiveness of debts) and extending the provision of God (Forgiving the debts of others).
Each topic will be divided into 2 days. The first day will focus on you (your provision, your need for forgiveness) The second day will focus on others (their provision, their forgiveness)
1. Respond by giving thanks, and asking for what you know you (others) need
2. Ask God to reveal how he is already providing as well as ways He is wanting to provide.
3. Ask Him to reveal any obstacles that may be keeping you (others) from experiencing his provision/forgiveness. Be willing to surrender.
4. After giving thanks, ask Him how He is inviting you to extend His provision for others
Spend some time listening to His response and journal your experience. The prompts for this week are based on different portions of Scripture centered on provision and forgiveness
