Prayer for July 28-August 3, 2013
Sermon Text: Luke 11:1-13
That we will always
remember that we depend upon You
Listening God, we rejoice in your invitation to prayer. We rejoice that Christ taught his disciples
to pray and we rejoice in the practice of prayer that has been cultivated in
the history of Israel, and in the church, for millennia.
We rejoice that
your invitation to pray is coupled with your resolve to provide good gifts that
nurture and strengthen us and provide what we truly need.
Because of your
invitation, we ask of You, we seek your provision, we knock upon your door as
the door of our dearest and most responsive friend.
With your children
throughout many generations we pray:
Father, your name
is holy.
Reign among us.
Give us the food
we need each day.
Forgive our sins
as we forgive all who sin against us.
Don’t lead us into
temptation.
Open your door to
us, our Dearest Friend. Amen.
