Prayer for January 26-February 1, 2020
Sermon Text: Matthew 4:12-23
That we may hear and follow You without reservation
Christ Jesus, we rejoice
that You were the light for whom many were waiting. You touched people living
in darkness. You touched people living in the shadow of death.
Some recognized you,
immediately, as Light of the world and Source of all hope. Others resisted and
struggled before recognizing You as the One for whom their hearts had ached. Others,
still, sought to deny and defeat You, but would fail to do so in the end.
Let us be among those who
hear and follow without reservation. It is too late for some of us to do so
“immediately,” or “at once,” but it is not too late to follow with all our
concentration and passion. It is not too late for us to give You everything, as
You have given everything on our behalf.
Enable us to do so now. And enable us to draw others to You. Amen.
