一﹑本週經文 Scriptures: 提摩太前書2:1-8 1 Timothy
我勸你第一要為萬人懇求、禱告、代求、祝謝，2為君王和一切在位的，也該如此，使我們可以敬虔、端正、平安無事地度日。3.這是好的，在神我們救主面前可蒙悅納。4.他願意萬人得救，明白真道。5.因為只有一位神，在神和人中間，只有一位中保，乃是降世為人的基督耶穌；6.他捨自己作萬人的贖價，到了時候，這事必證明出來。7 我為此奉派作傳道的，作使徒，作外邦人的師傅，教導他們相信，學習真道。我說的是真話，並不是謊言。 8 我願男人無忿怒，無爭論（或譯：疑惑），舉起聖潔的手，隨處禱告。
1 I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— 2 for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. 3 This is good, and pleases God our Savior, 4 who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time. 7 And for this purpose I was appointed a herald and an apostle—I am telling the truth, I am not lying—and a true and faithful teacher of the Gentiles. 8 Therefore I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands without anger or disputing.
二﹑禱告事項 Prayer Items:
1. 為洛福教會彰顯上帝的榮耀禱告：求聖靈持續澆灌教會，恢復神在教會的榮耀。求聖靈帶領弟兄姊妹進入真理，藉著神的話語和教導。求你使信徒結出生命的果子，好叫人們通過我們的好行為，使父神得榮耀。求主叫教會明白神給教會的使命，不單只是來教會聚會，更應裝備每一個信徒後出去服事，差派人進入不同領域發揮影響力。求主使教會平衡裝備與行動，不讓教會只停留在牆內，讓我們開始關懷貧窮人和孤兒寡婦，向不法和不義的事情不妥協，為社會帶來改變。又讓教會明白神國度的計畫，運用屬天的權柄，同心參與國度性合一的工作。
Pray for Love Church to Manifest God’s Glory. May the Holy Spirit continuously pour out upon the church, restoring God’s glory within it. Pray that the Holy Spirit will lead the brothers and sisters into truth through God’s word and teachings. Ask that believers bear the fruit of life, so that through our good deeds, people may glorify the Father. Pray that the Lord helps the church understand its mission, not just to attend gatherings, but to equip every believer to go out and serve, sending them into different fields to exert influence. Pray that the Lord enables the church to balance equipping and action, not confining itself within the walls, but beginning to care for the poor, orphans, and widows, uncompromisingly confronting injustice and unrighteousness, and bringing about societal change. May the church understand God’s kingdom plan, use heavenly authority, and participate in kingdom unity work with one heart.
2.為暑期各短宣隊禱告：願主加添信心與能力給所有短宣隊團員，放膽傳福音見證主的道，祝福每一個地方每一場聚會，人心被神得著觸摸，經歷神大能的造訪與聖靈的工作。求主保守短宣隊出入平安、身體健康。
Pray for STM team. May God give STM team faith and strength, so they can be bold to share the gospel and serve people in different culture. Bless every gathering, people’s hearts will be touched by God, and they will experience God’s powerful visit and the work of the Holy Spirit. May God grant them safe travel and good health.
3. 為教會能興起更多禱告勇士禱告：願神向教會釋放祂的啟示和心意，叫教會興起禱告戰士，能站在家庭、職場、城市和列國的破口，忠心地守望和禱告，直至看見神的榮耀充滿全地之中。求主呼召那敬畏你名和服從你命令的守望者，日夜看護教會和吹響號角，讓他們在敵人威脅時能發出警號，使基督的身體能團結起來，對抗這些攻擊。 因正直人的祝福，城必升高；讓守望者禱告的聲音不止息。
Pray for the Church to Raise More Prayer Warriors. May God release His revelation and will to the church, raising prayer warriors who can stand in the gap for families, workplaces, cities, and nations, faithfully watching and praying until God’s glory fills the whole earth. Pray that the Lord calls those who fear His name and obey His commands to be watchmen, guarding the church day and night and sounding the alarm. Let them issue warnings when the enemy threatens so that the body of Christ can unite against these attacks. By the blessing of the upright, the city is exalted; may the voices of the watchmen in prayer never cease.
4. 為肢體禱告：為你所知道身體欠安的弟兄姊妹禱告，求神醫治他們恢復身體的健康。
Pray for the Sick. Pray for the brothers and sisters you know who are in poor health, and ask God to heal them and restore them to good health.
