Prayer for August 12-18, 2018
Sermon Text: Ephesians 4:25-5:2
That
we may be guided and formed in the way of love
Spirit of God, guide and form us
in the way of love. Enable us to walk as Jesus walked, in imitation of God our
Creator. Let our lives be a fragrant offering to the One whom we love above all
others.
Remind us, daily, of our unity in Christ, and enable us to speak in ways
that bless and build up our many sisters and brothers.
Teach us to deal wisely with anger. Strip bitterness and rage from our
hearts. Do not allow any form of anger to become a wedge through which evil penetrates
our lives in order to dominate us and separate us from each other.
Enable us to do useful works of service for each other so we may share joyfully
in the blessed life that You intend for us.
Let our individual and corporate lives be characterized by abundant kindness
and compassion. Help us forgive with grateful and generous hearts. Amen.
