(Passages that we will refer to in next Sunday's worship)
1 Samuel 11
O God our Protector, Your enemies would eagerly desire to hurt us and bring disgrace upon us. Even now our brothers and sisters suffer at the hands of brutal foes. Send forth the strongest Deliverer, Christ our Lord, that He might put violent men to flight. May even the most brutal enemies of Your church become Your friends through the only Way of peace. Work salvation throughout Your church as many people are drawn to Your Son. We rejoice greatly in Him.
Isaiah 6
Holy and Majestic God, You are the Lord. You reign from the heavenly sanctuary, and You are holy. Our sin is made more obvious in the light of Your presence. We thank You for the full atonement which is ours in Jesus Christ. We have been set apart for Your purposes and are willing to be sent out for Your glory. Grant us strength from on high for the service to which we have been called. May we be faithful in speaking the truth by the power of Your love for Your chosen flock.
Acts 1
Sovereign Lord, Your plans are full and wonderful. You have promised us the great gift of Your Holy Spirit. By this same Spirit we are Your witnesses to the end of the earth. You direct this great work of mission from Your seat on high. Continue to supply us with all things necessary for the life that You have given to us. We thank You for the apostolic witness granted to us in the New Testament. Through this good Word we have the perfect interpretation of the Old Testament. Please direct us into a true understanding of the Scriptures, and lead us in the preaching and teaching of Your Word. Build Your glorious kingdom by Your mighty power even in our day.
