Prayer Meeting 6th December- Do we know how much God loves us?

Angela read from 1 John 4v10 "In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation (atoning sacrifice) for our sins."

Steve asked the question if we realised how much God loved us.

God shows He loves us by The Cross of Christ (Romans 5 v8 "but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.") We are powerless, we were sinful; yet God has loved us and sent Jesus to pay the price. That shows amazing love!

God does not stop loving us. He is not disappointed with us. We are His children and can never turn His back on us.

This should lift our heads so we can walk with Him in confidence.

We prayed for different situations.

• We thanked God for His amazing love.
• We prayed for Steve who is talking at the Carol celebration.
• We prayed for Lena who's family is not well at the moment
• We prayed "Tony" Pauline's friend.
• We prayed for Gloria who had been doing accountancy exams and Eden doing "Mocks" in January.
• Jessica gave testimony for her daughter who had gained a job after we prayed for her.
• We prayed for local churches that God would us them to be a witness for Him.
• Ola got us praying for the council after he heard the vicar of All Saints saying how the council used to be regularly involved at All Saints.
