Prayers from Sunday, September 25th

Written and led by Bruce Kleinert

Dear Father, grant that all we do each minute of each day may show our gratitude for You great love as shown in the life and sacrifice of Your dear son, Jesus.
 Lord in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

Jesus, there’s a lot of people in our culture telling us what to believe and what to trust in. You’re the One we believe, trust, and place our hope in. Give us the perseverance to remain steadfast in our faith.
 Lord in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

Lord, our daily life gets hectic and busy with so many activities. We often don’t spend enough time with You. We ask that we may set aside our priorities and place You first in everything we do.
Lord in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

Holy Spirit, the world would have us question Your Word and the stories You have shared there.  We ask that the truth of Your Word and the witness of those believers who are persecuted for their love for You remained faithful until death. May we always remember and believe that we are saved by Christ’s sacrifice.
Lord in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

Almighty and merciful Father, we pray for those who are sick and in need of healing. We ask you to be with Terry Heald, Linda Davis, Connie Rill, Gloria Kleinert, and Aurella Swanson. Lord, we also bring other special friends, family, and neighbors to you at this time… Remove their hurt, pain, worry, doubt, fear, and anxiety and replace it with strength for their bodies, joy in their spirits, and trust in Your promises. Help them to feel Your loving embrace. 
Lord in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

Lord, there are many of our friends who don’t know you. Use us to share our personal story about our love of You with them so that Your Holy Spirit can work in their hearts to help them grow in their love and trust in You.
Lord in Your mercy, hear our prayer.


For these prayers and those on our hearts, we lift up and give blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might to out God forever and ever! Amen.
