Pray for athletes, coaches, and those unable to play team sports during this time.

Heavenly Father, we want to thank you for the ability to exercise our bodies, build strength and train our bodies to do incredible things. We pray now for all those who have found community, friendships and a place to use the talents you’ve given them through sports, recreation and teams. We pray for the loss so many feel from being unable to participate and be together during this time. So many have found the sports fields and places of recreation as a place to further your mission and to demonstrate godly living to a watching world. We pray now for those missed opportunities to gather together. We pray for all those who are grieving the loss of attending games, matches, recitals and other activities. We pray for those who have missed the opportunities to finish a season, play in finals, try out for a new team, coach and train others, and especially for high school and college seniors. We pray your blessing over them now, as they await the time they can gather together again. Thank you God, that we find our true source of strength in you. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. - Isaiah 40:31 (ESV)

Pray for those who are mourning and grieving the death of a loved one.

God of compassion, we lift up those who are mourning and grieving the death of a loved one during this time. Surround them with your presence and fill every longing during this time of separation. We ask that you would hold them close to your heart in the moments when they feel helpless, alone and caught up in deep sadness. God of comfort, in their grief, would you shelter them in the shadow of your wing. Ever-faithful God, help them to feel your love through these words of hope to all your people from the prophet Isaiah: "Because you are precious to me, because I love you, there is no need to be afraid, for I am with you." Father, in this time when families and friends cannot draw near to one another for comfort, we ask that you would be their strong rock, their comforter, healer and friend. Draw them close to you, Lord, and help them to sense your deep love and promised presence.  In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. -Matt...

Philippians 4:4-7 - Think of Excellence (The Living Bible)

Always be full of joy in the Lord; I say it again, rejoice! Let everyone see that you are unselfish and considerate in all you do. Remember that the Lord is coming soon. Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything; tell God your needs, and don’t forget to thank him for his answers. If you do this, you will experience God’s peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will keep your thoughts and your hearts quiet and at rest as you trust in Christ Jesus. Join others at 12 PM today to pray for our local and global community.

Philippians 4:8-9 (New International Version)

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
