Sunday Morning Prayer for August 16, 2009

Prayer for August 16, 2009


Dear Lover, Redeemer, and Friend,

We know that in You dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. Everything that God is, all His glory, all His majesty, all His beauty, all His perfection, is displayed in You, Lord Jesus. We worship and prize You above everything and everyone else. We delight in Your presence. We long for Your fellowship.

Father, if we’ve come here for anything else today, please forgive us and correct us.

If we’ve come to be entertained by good music, forgive us and help our souls to be enraptured in You.

If we’ve come to be pleased or to think better of ourselves through a well-presented talk, forgive us and give light to our minds to know You better.

If we’ve come to see and be seen, forgive us and help us to see only Christ and Him crucified.

Give us more of You today, Lord Jesus.

In Your precious name I pray,

Amen.
