Scripture Reading
Read aloud (together if applicable).
R-16 THE SPIRIT OUR HELPER 聖靈是阮的幫助
Galatians 5:16, 22-25; Romans 8:14-16, 26-27 (NKJV)
I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,
Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

Worship Through Prayer
Lord, thank You for the pastors and leaders of the church. May Your favor rest upon them. Keep them holy and pure for Your Name's sake. Teach me to love and care for them in a way that honors You. Help me to uphold them constantly with prayers.
Father, help me to love my spiritual family. Teach me to care for my Christian brothers and sisters sincerely. Help me to keep the fellowship of believers in unity and harmony, loving all others in the same way that You are loving me.
God of peace, You are the One who enables me to live in peace with others. Be magnified in my life. May the gospel of peace be proclaimed in the way I live my life and relate to other people. May the way I love others be glorifying to Your Name. Help me, Lord.
