Prayer for September 22-28, 2013
Sermon Text: 1 Timothy 2:1-7
That our prayers
may contribute to justice, healing, and peace
Sovereign One, we rejoice in your invitation to pray, your
promise of loving attentiveness, and the confidence your fidelity gives us that
You will hear and answer for our well-being and for the healing of your world.
Guide the leaders
of our cities, states, nation, and nations of the world into knowledge of your
word and pursuit of your justice.
Enable our leaders
to protect those who are poor, weak, and without voice, by compassionate
advocacy and by wise and just allocation of resources.
Enable us, as your
people, to be agents of your truth; and may our leaders be committed to knowing
your truth and acting truthfully as they carry out their tasks.
Through wise
leadership and faithful living, create a world of peace where your people and
your creation are one in You. Amen.
