Sunday, (Feb 28) – Praise God that He knows everything about each of us, and that even the things that we do wrong can never separate us from His unfailing love. Pray that the Holy Spirit will help us to live out this truth in our lives, and that we will aim to do only the things that are pleasing in God’s sight. Thank the Lord that He made each of us fearfully and wonderfully. Pray that we will come into agreement with God’s unconditional love for us, and that we will not despise all our imperfections. Above all, thank the Lord that He is not a God who watches us from a distance, but rather a personal God, who both knows us and desires to be known by each one of us.
Monday, (Mar 1) – Pre-schoolers and Primary 1 and Primary 2 students are scheduled to return to schools today, while the rest of the primary school students will come back to school from March 8, 2021 onwards. Pray that all the preparations for the re-opening of schools will go smoothly: that the teachers will be able to get the children familiarised with the school’s SOPs, and teachers and parents will be able to find the best way to handle dispersal at the end of the schooling day. Pray also for students who are sitting for the SPM and other important exams. Pray against any possible leakage of examination questions in the SPM as the students are already facing a very difficult time, and the prospect of having to re-sit any exam papers will be unnecessary added stress for the students. Pray for God’s protection upon all students and teachers.
Tuesday, (Mar 2) – Pray that our church members will have a deeper and a more intimate relationship with God. Pray especially for all working people that they will be able to persevere under the current difficult situation. As work life has changed tremendously due to the pandemic, pray that our people will have the strength and courage to go through this season of change in their work places. Pray especially for those who are looking for job opportunities during this pandemic, and pray that God will open doors of opportunity for them. Pray that despite such challenging circumstances, we will never take our eyes off Jesus who is our Good Shepherd.
Wednesday, (Mar 3) – Praise God that the health director-general said that the nation’s infection rate of Covid-19 cases had showed a steady decline in recent days. Praise the Lord that the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme has started, and medical frontliners are among the first to be vaccinated. Pray that the vaccine will be effective in protecting people against the Covid-19 virus, and that there will be minimal side effects, if any. Pray that the public will continue to strictly follow the SOPs so that there will not be another spike in the daily Covid-19 infections.
Thursday, (Mar 4) – Pray for the World: Continue to pray for Myanmar. Despite international and internal pressure, the military junta continues to hold firm in power. Pray that God will bring down the regime and restore democracy to the nation. Pray that the detained leaders and the rest of the political prisoners will be released quickly. As Myanmar is very divided with over a hundred ethnicity groups, different religious mindsets and political parties, pray that there will be unity in diversity to fight against a common enemy. With street protests occurring in many cities all over the country, pray against violence and bloodshed from happening.
Friday, (Mar 6) – Pray for TRAC: Pray for the TRAC Board of Chinese Ministry under the leadership of Rev. Lester Lim. Pray that the Chinese Ministry under TRAC will be able to grow and reach out to many Chinese-speaking people. Pray that the Board will be able to provide relevant and sufficient resources to churches who have Chinese Ministry. Pray that each member of this Board will have a closer walk with God. Pray that they will be able to hear and discern God’s way for this ministry and to have the courage to walk in it.
Saturday, (Mar 7) – Pray for the Nation: Pray for God-fearing leaders to arise in the nation, and that God will bless them with wisdom and courage to lead and rule the nation forward as we face this economic, political and health crisis. Pray for leaders of integrity who are hard-working, fair and bravely outspoken, who want to see justice restored and upheld through fair governance at every level of society.
