(A sample prayer suitable for an important business or work meeting) Lord, before I go into this meeting, I still myself before you. For you are filled with beauty and light, and care deeply about me. Help me to listen, before speaking. Help me to fully understand these people, before making my case. Help me to value and appreciate the ones I am about to meet, before thinking of my own concerns and anxieties. May your light enfold me. May your spirit guide me. May your grace abound in me. This is my prayer. (a modern prayer for a meeting from www.lords-prayer-words.com). Prayer for a Staff Meeting Almighty God, Thank you for the beauty and majesty we see in your creation.

Dear Lord and Father, Thank you that you promise us that where two or three are gathered you are there in the midst.

Some ideas of things to pray for:- • Begin by reminding yourself that God is here, Jesus promises to be present whenever his children meet together - '.when two or three of you are together because of me, you can be sure that I'll be there'. (The Message, Matthew 18:20) • Pray for the worship. Pray for your musicians, and technical people involved, such as those on the PA and screens if you have them. Pray that they will be inspired, encouraged and guided by God's Spirit. Especially pray for the worship leader - there is much to think about when leading a congregation in praise and song, pray that they will be able to worship God and hear from him as they lead others. • Pray for your guests at the meeting. It could be there are a number of people in your meeting yet to make a decision to follow Christ. Be mindful of them and 'pray continually' (1 Thessalonians 5:17, NIV) for them. If you are involved leading the service, remember to monitor your language - avoid cliches and explain religious terminology if you need to use it. • Pray for 'all the saints' e.g. Those who have a personal faith in Christ. Pray that their hearts will be uplifted, that they will meet with God, and that their walk will be deepened with Him. • Pray for the speaker. It may be appropriate to gather around them and lay hands on them, if they feel comfortable with this. Pray for inspiration, clarity of thought and communication, and that they will be able to deliver everything that God has laid on their heart to speak about. • Finally, pray for unity. 'How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity!' (Psalm 133:1. This is the will of God - that we are one as he is one. So much of church history is riddled with divisions and factions. Pray for unity of heart, vision and purpose in the life of your church. BOY SCOUT PRAYERS 1.

A SCOUT'S PRAYER IN WINTER Lord, we are camping in the snow today; We may fear the cold, But we trust that your Spirit Will guide and warm us. A SCOUT'S PRAYER We have hiked along life's pathway, Our packs upon our backs, We have pitched our tents and rested Here and there along the tracks. We have used our compass wisely To guide us on our way And hope to reach the campsite Of our Great Chief Scout some day. We have tried to be trustworthy - Kept our honor high and clean, We have been as loyal as any To our Country and our Queen. We have done our best at all times - Kept our Promise - been prepared, And hope our good deeds please Him When at last our souls are bared. We have lightened others' burdens, With our smiles along the way, We have kept our hand in God's hand, Walked beside Him day by day. And when our span of life runs out, We'll make this gentle plea - May we sit around His Campfire At the Final Jamboree. From Scouting in New South Wales 5. A SCOUTER'S PRAYER 'Build me a Scout, O Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid; one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat, and humble and gentle in victory. Build me a Scout whose wishes will not take the place of deeds; a Scout who himself is the foundation stone of knowledge. Lead him, I pray, not in the path of ease and comfort, but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenge. Here let him learn to stand up in the storm; here let him learn compassion for those who fail. Build me a Scout whose heart will be clear, whose goals will be high. A Scout who will master himself before he seeks to master others, one who will march into the future, yet never forget the past. And after all these things are his, add, I pray, enough of a sense of humor so that he may always be serious, yet never take himself too seriously. Give him humility, so that he may always remember the simplicity of true wisdom, and the meekness of true strength. Then I, a Scouter who knew him, will dare to whisper, `I have not lived in vain.'
