Prayer of Intercession
Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me,
Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ on my right, Christ on my left,
Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise,
Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me, Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me,
Christ in every eye that sees me, Christ in every ear that hears me.
(first offered by St. Patrick, Breastplate Prayer of Protection)
Holy God, You are awesome and wondrous in all Your works. We praise You for making the way for all to know and love You through Jesus, the Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world. By Your Spirit, stir up a new thing in us – new hopes, new passions, new dreams, new fire and guide us to bear witness to the new thing You are doing in the world today. Open our hearts and minds to hunger and thirst for You, Your Word and righteousness. Help us to never be satisfied or settle for worldly things or ways. Today we lift our mid-week ministries to children and youth, kindergarten – high school, through The Bridge, Elevate, and The Well. We ask, Father, that You bless and build up all participants, facilitators, and leaders in the gift and joy of Your love and Word. To Your honor and glory we pray, in Jesus’ name.
As The Spirit Leads
Please continue in prayer for any personal, church, community, nation, or world needs, concerns, or thanksgivings.
Lord’s Prayer
Let us close by praying the words that Jesus taught.
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come; Your will be done on earth as in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
Refer: Matthew 6:9–13
Thank you for joining us in prayer. We hope you join us tomorrow.
The LORD bless you and keep you.
The LORD make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you.
The LORD lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.
—Numbers 6:24–26
