Praying for Our Church | Day 22

Praying for our Single Parents

Lord, I lift up the single parents in our church. May they know You as father to the fa- therless and defender of widows! Let us be a real family to them when they are lonely. Show us ways to in- clude them and minister grace to them. Stir up practical ideas in us that show Your love and care. Help them relax in Your grace and provision which is more than enough for every weakness and need. (Ps. 68:5, 6; 25:16; Matt. 25:35-40; 2 Cor. 12:9; Phil. 4:19)

Psalm 68:5, 6, 25:16

Father of the fatherless and protector of widows
    is God in his holy habitation.

Father of the fatherless and protector of widows
    is God in his holy habitation.

Turn to me and be gracious to me,
for I am lonely and afflicted.

2 Corinthians 12:9
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

Philippians 4:19

And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
