After a while it can be difficult to know how to keep praying for a situation - even one as grave as the developing corona-virus crisis. Christian Concern for our Nation has listed out a number of ways we can be praying in these fraught days. I'll post these a section at a time. The first focuses us on praising God, and is rooted in Ps.62:5-7. Perhaps use these in the context of one of the Orders of Service on our website.
Praise God as the maker and sovereign Lord over all things – none can question his ways (Job 38-42)
Praise Jesus as the one to whom all authority in Heaven and Earth has been given (Matt 28:19-20)
Praise God for his loving protection of his covenant people (Isaiah 43:1-7, Psalm 91)
Give thanks that nothing on earth can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord (Rom 8:38-39)
Give thanks that every good and perfect gift is from our Father and that we have much to thank God for, even during suffering (James 1:17)
Praise God for a hope beyond death – that death will finally be defeated and we shall be raised (1 Cor 15:50-58)
