Prayer for January 7-13, 2018
Sermon Text: Mark 1:4-11
That our discipleship will be
energized by grace and gratitude
God of all people, we need
You! We need prophetic leaders who know
that they are not the Power from On High, but who are able to make us aware of
our sins, prompt us to repentance, and point us to Jesus who gives the Holy
Spirit freely.
Give us leaders who
understand their preparatory role and fulfill it well.
Forgive our sins in your
great mercy! Grant us your Spirit in your unmatched generosity! Impel us into a
deeper discipleship that is energized by grace and gratitude and that overflows
with joy.
Our spiritual hunger has not
been fully sated. Our spiritual thirst has not been fully quenched. But You
have the resources to match our deepest hunger and thirst so that we may live
as fruitful followers of Jesus. Make it so, we pray! Amen.
