My Pentecost prayer


Loving God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Fill us.
Loving God, help us see how You are sending Your Spirit .
Powerful God, remind us that Your spirit has no limit.
God of Mission, inspire us to dream of where You could send Your Spirit.
Faithful God, remind us of how Your Spirit dwells with those who know and follow you.
Almighty God Father Son and Holy Spirit, send the Spirit to make us more like Jesus, to guide us in truth and righteousness.
Father and Creator send the Spirit to renew us into the image of Your Son.
Jesus send the Spirit to enable us to know and connect deeper with what the cross and tomb were really all about.
Spirit come and refine and renew us so that the world would see Jesus in us.
Father, send the Spirit so that we might connect more with the fatherless in our communities
Jesus, send the Spirit that we might follow You in going to the lonely and rejected.
Spirit remind us that You dwell in the young and old, the well and the unwell, the liked and the dispised, the lonely and the popular, the happy and the sad, those who are contended and those who are unsatisfied.  With those who mourn and with those who grief. With those who know where they are going and with those who are desperate for guidance.
And you dwell with them because You Love them, because You care for them and because You are God.
Father remind us that you sent the Spirit, because we need to be filled with God
Jesus remind us that being like you is only something we can do in your strengthen no ours.
Spirit come and fill us for without you we are nothing, but empty shells of the humanity you created and planned for us.
Spirit fill you church that we may serve those whose lives are empty shells of what you created. Those who are poor, rejected, marginised, hopeless and lost. Those who are victims and those who are perpetrators. Those who should know better and those who have never had a Good model or example in life.
Loving God, help us see how You are sending us out in the power of Your Spirit.
Powerful God, remind us that the Spirit which dwells within Your followers has no limit.
God of Mission, inspire us to dream of where and to whom you want to send your Spirit filled Church.
Loving God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Fill us.
