Exodus
11
Lord of Your
People, bring the plagues of Your judgment to an end, lest everyone
everywhere die. Speak a great Word of mercy over all the earth in
the message of Your gospel. Turn the hearts of many to love You.
Your only-begotten Son has died for our sins. He has become the
Firstborn of the Resurrection. All men everywhere should hear Your
Word of justice and mercy, repent of sin, and turn toward You. Help
us, O God! Deliver us from the foolishness of our rebellion.
Acts 17
Lord
God, Your message came first to the Jews and then to the Gentiles,
yet Your truth is the same for all the people groups of the world,
that Jesus is the Christ. Thank You for the grace of Your presence
in trying times. Grant Your servants encouragement in all kinds of
ministry situations. Teach them to do Your work with love and
perseverance, trusting You in all times and places. The message of
the truth may seem to be a foreign religious system to those who have
never heard it. How are our ministers to know how to speak and what
they are to say? Lead them in their teaching so that they can
present the wonder of Your being and the grandeur and glory of Your
works. Show them engaging truths all around them that will help in
explaining the beauty of the gospel to those who are being saved.
