Part of the 5 Things series.
The coronavirus pandemic has left most of us feeling unsettled, concerned and very aware of human frailty. It has driven many of us to our knees, but it is such an overwhelming problem that many of us are unsure how to pray, or what for.
This little book has been written specifically to help Christians in this season. Each spread takes a passage of Scripture and suggests 5 things to pray from it so that we can pray in line with God's will. When we pray in line with God’s priorities, we know that our prayers will be powerful—they really will change things.
These prayer prompts will help you to pray for such things as comfort in loneliness, peace in anxiousness, patience in frustration, wisdom in uncertainty and hope in grief. They will also help you to pray for family who you cannot visit, those who are sick and those looking after them, the vulnerable members of your community, your church, your government and the opportunities that this crisis presents for God’s kingdom to grow.

This is a profoundly practical and beautifully biblical book which will help you to call upon God in the midst of all the confusion, heartache, and anxiety of the current crisis. I heartily recommend it.
I found this book very helpful and I am using it as a weekly devotion for the church I serve as Pastor.
I have found this a very helpful resource in considering how to pray in the current crisis, which can seem overwhelming.
All the prayers are based on Scripture passages so I can be confident I am praying in accordance with God's Word.
With so much that we could pray for in the current pandemic, it can be hard to know where to start and certainly to order prayers over the week.
I’ve found this short book really helpful in providing inspiration for prayer. Each set of 5 things to pray for is based on a Bible passage and the different sections/chapters are well laid out to help to ensure I pray for a range of issues.
