Prayer for April 17-23, 2011

Sermon Text: Matthew 21:1-11

That we will praise You boldly at all times

Sovereign God, we acknowledge Jesus as Anointed King and Maker of Peace, chosen and sent by You. Jesus is your agent of newness, of forgiveness and restoration that we could not imagine or achieve on our own. We rejoice in You for your great mercy to us.

Give us courage to voice our praise in the context of our daily activities and relationships, not only when we are gathered together for worship. Let us praise You without self-consciousness or embarrassment, even when some resist our words of thankfulness and wish to silence us.

Shape our lives for fruitfulness in obedience and righteousness, and by drawing others to You. We pray with confidence and boldness because all things are possible for You. Amen.
