Our Beloved God,
We thank You for sending Your beloved Son Jesus Christ, whose blood—the grace bestowed from heaven—has opened for us, who were destined for eternal death, a path to everlasting life. All who repent and receive the Lord Jesus Christ are justified by faith and given life through righteousness. May we, who have been raised from death to life, remember Your grace, set our hopes on heaven, walk our faith on earth, uphold integrity, answer Your call in service, and bear abundant good fruit.
We find ourselves in a desolate age, a world in lack of love, where we see multitudes living in emptiness and aimlessness. May You, O Lord, lead us to seek the lost, that not one may remain behind, but all return home to Your flock. We choose to walk with You, not drifting with the tide; to obey Your commands, not following human ways. We also ask the Holy Spirit to ignite in us a vigilant heart and the strength to pray, keeping Your statutes ever before us.
May others come to know the Triune God—who loves and saves the world—through witnessing our good deeds. We thank You, God, for allowing us to live in this era of grace, to walk in the light, overcome evil with good, and in all things put You first. May we face no fear of opposition, hold fast to hope, and accomplish Your work.
We pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
