Sunday Praise and a Prayer for Obedience

 

 

Heavenly Father, we praise your Name.  We know that everything comes from your gracious and loving hand and we are so grateful.  Anything we have, anything we’re able to do, anything praiseworthy in our lives, is because of you.  We glorify you, we magnify you, now and forever.  May we continue to look up to you this week, to seek you in continual prayer that we might know you and love you more, that we might do your will in loving obedience. LORD, help us make choices that shine your light in this increasingly dark world. May those around us who don’t yet know you see you in us, and may those around us who do know you be spurred on to good works because of your light in us.  May we walk continually in your Spirit, and may our zeal for you abound more and more.  May you give us steadfastness in our faith and trust in you that we might bring your name glory and fame throughout the world.  In the mighty Name of Jesus our Messiah we pray, amen.
