Prayer for September 20-26, 2020
Sermon Text: Exodus 16:1-15
Sermon Text: Exodus 16:1-15
That we may follow your guidance with tenacity, hope, and joy
God, our Deliverer, your presence is not
always as clear to us as a pillar of fire and cloud, but help us to move in the
direction of true freedom, as You guide us. Free our minds of nostalgia related
to the various forms of bondage that we have endured. Help us to remember the
many ways that You have acted on our behalf, so that we respond to the
challenges of our journey with robust courage and unwavering hope.
Enable us to voice our needs and
concerns, even grievances, in direct, clear ways. Do not let us become stuck in
our grumbling. Do not let us give up hope when our trials seem too much for us.
Forgive us when we fail to trust You.
Forgive us when we do give up hope that You will guide us into the future You
have promised. Help us to discern what is true, good, and just. Forgive us when
we accuse faithful leaders of leading us to our destruction.
Enable us to obey your instruction and
follow your guidance with tenacity, but also with hope and joy. Amen.
