Sermon Text: Acts 5:27-32
Prayer for the Week
God of new life,
enable us to be obedient witnesses to Jesus and his resurrection. Let us speak
good news in compelling ways that elicit belief and encourage people to repent
and receive forgiveness of sins, while opening their hearts to the presence of
your Spirit.
Give us courage to
face resistance without bowing to pressure from those who would like to silence
us. Prepare us to speak at any moment and enable us to speak truth without
malice, but with deep compassion.
God, we are witnesses
of your wondrous work through Jesus Christ. We testify about what we have read,
heard, and experienced. Give us a deeper experience of your incomparable love
and a richer testimony to our diverse neighbors. Amen.
