1 Peter 4:10

10 Each of you should use whatever gift you
have received to serve others, as faithful stewards
of God’s grace in its various forms.


My Prayer...

Lord our God, we praise Your Name because You have
set up a mercy seat on earth, because You forgive our
sins through the blood of Jesus Christ. May Your mercy
be seen at work in many hearts. Shed Your light upon all
people, and let Your glory be known. Let Your Glory shine
in all hearts, to the praise of Your name and the deliverance
of those who are still in misery. Keep us in Your Word,
which works miracles. Protect in us all that Jesus Christ has
brought to the earth, and may we use His gifts in simplicity
of heart. Grant that much may be accomplished to the glory
of Your Name and that we may draw nearer to the day of
Jesus Christ, for which we wait in hope and longing.

Praise to Your Holy name, O Father in heaven.

Amen.

Zechariah 7:9-10

9 “This is what the LORD Almighty said:
‘Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion
to one another.
10 Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the
foreigner or the poor. Do not plot evil against each other.’


My Prayer...

Dear Father in heaven, we love and honor your ways even
when they are bitter ways. We long for courage and strength.
Lord, help us to believe. Grant faith to the millions surrounded
by death, faith that overcomes everything through utmost self-denial.
Let your light shine out to bring life to the nations in the midst of
all that is happening. Your light shall lead and guide us, and peace
will come, a deeper peace than we have ever known. Remember
each of us in all our concerns, and grant that the struggles of life
may lead us to peace. If hard and bitter ways should be our lot,
help us to remain steadfast, never complaining about our burdens
even in the most difficult days, for through grief and trouble the
way leads to you.

Praise to Your Holy name, O Father in heaven.

Amen.

Daniel 7:13-14

13 “In my vision at night I looked, and there before
me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds
of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was
led into his presence.
14 He was given authority, glory and sovereign power;
all nations and peoples of every language worshiped him.
His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass
away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.


My Prayer...

Lord our God, we thank you for the great light you send throughout
the world to let us know that you forgive, that no sin is too great for
you to forgive. Grant that people may cry out, "Have mercy on me,
O God!" Give them the spirit of prayer in their hearts to call,
"Father, forgive us our sins." Send your Holy Spirit, the Spirit of truth
and humility, and then forgive their sins. Wherever a soul is sighing,
wherever someone is calling to you, hear him. May our prayers come
before your throne. Hear and answer us. We have so much on our
hearts that we cannot rightly express it all. We pray for others too.
Father, forgive them. Clear away all the obstacles so that your judgment
can be merciful toward those whom you forgive. Be with us. May we
be a church community of Jesus Christ, washed in his blood, with strength
to face every bitter outburst of the world's fury and still forgive. May our
prayer remain, "Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us."

Praise to Your Holy name, O Father in heaven.

Amen.

[Charon]

Amen.

Isaiah 47:4

4 Our Redeemer—the LORD Almighty is his
name— is the Holy One of Israel.


My Prayer...

Dear Father in heaven, we come before you as your children,
longing to be assured through your Spirit that we are and may
remain your children. We long to live to the glory of your name
under the shelter and guidance of the Lord Jesus in expectation
of the great day which shall fulfill all promises made to us.
Strengthen us, especially in dark and troubled days. Help us when
danger threatens and when evil tries to make headway among us.
Deliver us from all evil, for yours is the kingdom, the power, and
the Glory for ever and ever.

Praise to Your Holy name, O Father in heaven.

Amen.

[Charon]

Amen.

2 Samuel 22:29

29 You, LORD, are my lamp;
the LORD turns my darkness into light.


My Prayer...

Lord our God, you are help, comfort, and life to us in
everything we have to endure. We gather before you as
poor, weak people, but you can make us rich and give us
new life so that our lives prove we hold to your will and
to the justice you bring on earth. May we be one in spirit
through all we experience in our hearts, to the glory of
your name. May the praise and thanks of many people
ring out into all the world because you are help and
deliverance from all evil.

Praise to Your Holy name, O Father in heaven.

Amen.
