Father, God, Holy God, We praise Your Holy name, You are True and Wonderful, Gracious, Just and Divine. Righteousness flows in mighty tidal waves and thunderous bolts of lightening, love as a never ending sea.
We bow before You asking for forgiveness of our sins and transgressions, the sins of omission and commission, the evil intents and machinations of our hearts, even the wrongs we have done in our ignorance.
We thank you for the forgiveness and cleansing so readily given and so gratefully received from Your everlasting Grace, Mercy and Love.
We are so grateful for the washing of the blood of Jesus, the Lamb of God, the blood which applies grace in unmerited, unwarranted, undeserved favor, giving and imputing the very righteousness of God. Hallelujah!
Father bless us this day to walk circumspectly in You, finding dignity in humility, purpose in preaching, knowledge in the application of The Word to our lives.
May our wisdom and strength be born in adversity, sufferings, sacrifices, trials and tribulations. May the Joy of the Lord be ever our strength even in the terror of the raging storms. Gird us in Truth, Father that we may stand in the face of wickedness, demonic forces, and spiritual evil. Empower us in the Holy Spirit that Your fullness is ever an edifying force in our lives. May we be quick to pray, strong to preach, empowered to encourage and exhort, ready to evangelize and give answer for the Hope that is within us.
Father educate and edify Your Saints that theirs is the Kingdom of God, and all its power, to preach the Word, spread the Gospel, cast out demons and unhealthy and unclean spirits. Father may we never forget the grace purchased at Calvary as we ever look heavenward unto our soon and coming King.
Father God, bless us this day the family of God, as we honor You in constant prayer, presented before Your throne of authority, in the name of Jesus, and by the power of His blood, amen.
