Prayer for February 24-March 2, 2013 
Sermon Text: Luke 13:31-35

That we may have your heart of compassion for the world
Christ, strengthen our resolve to follow You in the way You lead.  Strengthen us for the work of compassion that You have called us to, led us in, and for which You have empowered us.

Enable us to walk ahead in obedience, just as You did, when we encounter resistance by powers that believe they are sovereign over us.  Do not let us be controlled by fear, but let us be guided by your Spirit and your vision of a world that is restored and ordered in covenant responsiveness to God.

Give us your heart of compassion for your world!  Enable us to act with compassion in every circumstance, and in ways that challenge structures that diminish and control our neighbors.  Let us walk with You in the freedom and courage You practice and give.  Amen.
