Peter Adam Praise, Thanks, and Prayer Letter

July-August 2024

Praise and thanks

Please join me in praising and thanking our gracious God: for his steadfast love and grace, his constant care and protection, his wisdom and power, his kindness and forgiveness, his sovereign power over all things, his great gospel plan for the nations, and his coming glory.

Prayers

Please join me in my daily prayers for myself:

  • ‘You have blessed and enriched me: help me to bless and enrich others freely and generously.’
  • ‘Help me to stand in your grace, live in your love, trust in your truth, grow in your wisdom, walk in your ways, and serve in your strength, in the name of the Lord Jesus, and for your glory.’
  • ‘By your glorious and powerful strength, give me patient endurance in everything, and joyful thanks to you for the Lord Jesus [based on Col 1:11-14].’
  • ‘May this day be my best day of trusting, honouring, loving, and serving you.’

Please join me in praying for my ministry over the next two months.
