God, bring YOUR HEART to Our City!

HOPE: Prosperity/Provision

Verse of the Day: Then this city will bring me renown, joy, praise and honor before all nations on earth that hear of all the good things I do for it; and they will be in awe and will tremble at the abundant prosperity and peace I provide for it. - Jeremiah 33:9


Father God, as we pray for our city today, we look to you to be the one who will bring prosperity and provision to her residents. Shower your love in tangible ways upon every household in each neighbourhood. Your heart is for this city and we as your people are passionate about seeing the blessed hope that we have in you, fill every heart. 

You have blessed our city with abundance, but we are also painfully aware that many in our city have very little. With that awareness, we want our prayers to partner with your word to 
bless those who are in need of your provision. Just as it was spoken over Jerusalem many centuries ago, we speak this over Victoria today: “I will bless her with abundant provisions; her poor I will satisfy with food”. (Psalm 132:15) “So that the poor have hope, and injustice shuts its mouth”. (Job 5:16) Thank you God for all that you provided in Victoria for the generations that came before us; how you are prospering those who are living here today; and for the hope that you will give to the generations that are
yet to live here. Amen.
