Go Beyond At Home
28-Week Prayer Guide
Loving our neighbors
Kingsland Family, what a joy it is to lead you through this week as we continue to pray together. This week, we will focus on the theme of “Loving your neighbor.” Each day, we will meditate on scriptures that remind us of the importance of showing kindness, compassion, and understanding to those around us. Our prayers will center on asking God to help us see others as He sees them, breaking down any barriers that prevent us from loving fully, and finding practical ways to demonstrate His love in our daily interactions. Let us come together in prayer, seeking God to do something spectacular by bringing transformation to our communities.
Week 19
Day 7

“In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.“
— Matthew 5:16
REMINDER: Our neighbors are not only those who live next to us but also everyone we encounter in our daily lives. This includes our co-workers, fellow parents or coaches on our kids’ sports teams, classmates, teachers, service workers, and even the people we meet during our daily routines, such as baristas, grocery store clerks, and gym members. We should see these relationships as opportunities to show Christ’s love. If we believe God is sovereign and that everything in life is either created or allowed by God, then our presence in these people’s lives is no mistake. God is always wanting to use us to bring these people closer to Him. By letting our light shine before others, we can help them see God’s love through our good works and give glory to our Father in heaven.
TODAY’S PRAYER:
– Thank God for the diverse opportunities to show His love to people in various areas of our lives.
– Ask for a deeper awareness of those around us who need to experience God’s love.
– Pray for the strength to maintain a constant love for everyone we meet, recognizing that our actions and words can have a profound impact.
– Ask God to use us as His instruments to bring those around us closer to Him, trusting in His sovereign plan and purpose for our lives and relationships.
