Prayer for November 25-December 1, 2012
Sermon Text: John 18:33-37
That we may pursue
and declare your truth with courage
God of all, we rejoice that in Christ Jesus we encounter
Truth that is personal and persuasive.
Through Jesus, we come to realize, more fully, that your ways are not
our ways, your thoughts are not our thoughts.
In Jesus, we are summoned to absolute allegiance to You and enduring
service of your sovereign reign among us.
Enable us to
practice humble, courageous, disciplined obedience that is full of gladness
from knowing You and living in your presence.
Forgive us when we
settle for cynicism, when we close our minds to truth and refuse to acknowledge
your presence with us and your demand upon us.
Energize us for
courageous pursuit of and courageous declaration of the truth we have come to
know in Christ Jesus. Let us be truthful
in all of our ways. Amen.
