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 5
July 11
“I give you a new command: Love one another. Just as I have loved you, you are also to love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.“
— John 13:34-35
REMINDER: Jesus teaches that our love for one another is a powerful testimony to the world. Many people have preconceived notions about Christians that may be based on negative experiences or stereotypes. By genuinely loving others, we can help break down these walls and show the true nature of Christ’s love. Love has the power to transform perceptions and reveal the heart of the Gospel. 1 Peter 4:8 (CSB) says, “Above all, maintain constant love for one another, since love covers a multitude of sins.”
TODAY’S PRAYER:
– Ask the Lord for opportunities to show genuine love to others, breaking down negative stereotype about Christians.
– Pray for wisdom and sensitivity in addressing the hurts and misconceptions that people may have about the church.
– Invite the Holy Spirit to guide our interactions so that we may reflect Christ’s love in all we do.
– Pray for boldness to engage in meaningful conversations that build bridges and foster understanding.
– Seek God’s help in demonstrating love in practical ways that make a lasting impact on our neighbors and community.
