Prayer Requests
PRAYER FOR THE CHURCH …
Precious Savior Jesus Christ, we thank and praise you that by your suffering on the cross you endured the very agony of hell in our place, and that by your death you have made peace for us with God. But we especially thank and praise you for your resurrection from the dead, for it proves that you are God's Son and seals your sacrifice as the full payment for our sins. O Jesus, may we never cease to praise you with our hearts and lips for all that you have so graciously done for our salvation!
Our Savior, we need you every hour of every day; be with us and shower upon us your promised grace and blessings. As our exalted Prophet, instruct and encourage our hearts with the gospel of forgiveness and help us grow in our faith and knowledge of salvation. As our exalted High Priest, hear us when we pray in your name and intercede at our Father's throne on our behalf. As our exalted King, watch over us day by day, protecting us from all danger, guarding and keeping us from all evil. Preserve us to your heavenly kingdom by granting us daily repentance and renewal of faith.
O Jesus our beloved Friend, whose is at our side in all our troubles. Give us strength to bear them and wisdom to overcome them. Grant us grace to endure every sorrow that comes our way and courage to cope with every sadness. Comfort and heal us according to our needs. As we travel the road of suffering and sorrow, may we learn to love you more and eagerly await the treasures you have reserved for us. All this we ask to the glory of your name, O triumphant Christ, who lives and reigns forever. Amen.
