Prayer for September 6-12, 2020
Sermon Text: Exodus 12:1-14
Sermon Text: Exodus 12:1-14
That our memory of your works of salvation may energize us for faithful living
God of the Exodus and
God of the Cross, we rejoice in You. We rejoice in the works of salvation You
have done on our behalf. We rejoice in the new creation that You have done
among us. We rejoice in the way that You have bound us together and in the fact
that You have provided resources that we may share as we remember You.
Stir our memory so that we are always
conscious of your acts of compassion and mercy on our behalf. Let our memory of
your word and your action energize us for faithful living that demonstrates
that You reign among us, even though we still await the fullness of that reign.
Forgive us when we forget about your
wonderful works on our behalf. Forgive us when we forget who we are. Forgive us
when we forget that we are linked together as recipients of your generosity.
Sharpen our memory. And let us express our
freedom in You in acts of worshipful remembrance that are overflowing with joy.
Amen.
