Prayer for June 15-21, 2014 
Sermon Text: Matthew 28:16-20

That we may go where You lead with enthusiasm and energy

Christ Jesus, we rejoice that God has raised You to life and given You authority over all of creation.  We hopefully await the day when your authority is fully acknowledged and faithfully heeded in a renewed heaven and earth.

Help us to respond to your authority by glad obedience and love.  Enable us to fulfill the commission You have given us.  Give us enthusiasm and energy to go where You lead us.  Help us to internalize your word, and your example, so that we may teach others your ways.  Give us the privilege of baptizing many in your name, so that they may live for your glory.  

We hold fast to your promise of unbroken companionship as we witness in your name.  Amen.
