BUILD YOUR KINGDOM

Snippet

Seek ye first the Lord, and then he will provide for you everything that is profitable for you in this life and He will crown it with everything that is glorious in the life to Come.  Charles Spurgeon

Scripture

But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Matthew 6:33 NASB

Song
Build Your Kingdom Here by Rend Collective

Come set Your rule and reign
In our hearts again
Increase in us we pray
Unveil why we're made
Come set our hearts ablaze with hope
Like wildfire in our very souls
Holy Spirit come invade us now
We are Your Church
We need Your Power
In us
We seek Your Kingdom first
We hunger and we thirst
Refuse to waste our lives
For You're our joy and prize
To see the captive hearts released
The hurt, the sick, the poor at peace
We lay down our lives for Heaven's Cause
We are Your Church
We pray Revive
This Earth
CHORUS:
Build Your kingdom here
Let the darkness fear
Show Your mighty hand
Heal our streets and land
Set Your Church on fire
Win this nation back
Change the atmosphere
Build Your kingdom here
We pray
Unleash Your kingdom's power
Reaching the near and far
No force of hell can stop
Your Beauty changes hearts
You made us for much more than this
Awake the kingdom seed in us
Fill us with the strength and love of Christ
We are Your Church
We are the hope
On Earth

Sentence Prayer

Lord,
You know that we love you,
And we know what you ask us to do-
But for those times we have been too busy,
When we’ve been too hardhearted,
When we’ve been lukewarm,
We say, sorry.
And ask for your forgiving love.
Prepare us for your way, O Lord.
YOUR KINGDOM COME, YOUR WILL BE DONE.

LORD,
You know our good intentions
And we know your will-
But hold us back long enough to listen to those in need
And to learn from them
And to learn of our own need
Where we think we are sent, make us ready to receive
Where we are keen to teach, make us ready to learn
PREAPRE US FOR YOUR WAY, O LORD
YOUR KINGDOM COME, YOUR WILL BE DONE

Lord,
You know our deepest desires,
And we know the vision of your kingdom-
We bring before you those elements in our lives
In need of your transforming power;
That which we misuse or neglect
That which we most reluctantly let go of.
That which we believe is not good enough.
Inspire us and disturb us to examine our deepest desires
Prepare us for your way, O Lord
YOUR KINGDOM COME, YOUR WILL BE DONE

Lord,
You know our potential
But what is your purpose for our lives?
In our uncertainty
And in the knowledge of your faithfulness
Prepare us for your way, O Lord.
YOUR KINGDOM COME, YOUR WILL BE DONE.
