Prayer for July 22-28, 2018
Sermon Text: 2 Samuel 7:1-17
That
we may be mindful of the ways our lives are sustained by your choice,
initiative and mercy
God our Creator and Redeemer, thank You for your word of correction and
guidance that often prevents us from running ahead of your plan for us. Thank
You for the prophetic reminder that You do not need us to do things for You, as
though You lacked resources and had unmet needs.
Thank You for showing us that our life with You is created and sustained
by your choice, by your initiative, by your mercy and faithfulness.
We rejoice in You. We rejoice in your covenant promises that give us
identity and hope. We rejoice in your constant companionship and attentive
care.
Enable us to live into your promises by trusting You fully, setting
aside anxiety, and living with thanksgiving that produces loving generosity
toward our many neighbors. May our lives bring praise to You! Amen.
