Prayer for Lord’s Day Worship

Comments Off on Prayer for Lord’s Day Worship

Blessed are you, O God.  You are our rock.  You are our lovingkindness.  You are our fortress, our high tower, and our deliverer.  You are our shield, and the one in whom we take refuge.  You are the one who subdues the nations under us so that they worship you and walk in the commandments of the Lord Jesus.   Though man is like breath, and his days like a passing shadow, you have loved us and exalted us in Christ Jesus and by the Holy Spirit.

Bow down your heavens, O Lord, and come down.  Touch the mountains, and let them smoke.  Flash forth your lightnings and show your great power.  Extend the kingdom of your Son over all the earth.  Give your people victory over all those who refuse to acknowledge you, over all those who speak lying words and whose right hand is a hand of falsehood.  Rescue us from all your and our enemies.  Make our sons as trees grown up in their youth, and our daughters as pillars sculpted for a palace.

Happy are all people who know your blessing; happy are all people who cling to you as God alone.  We exult in you, and we worship you, together with the Son and the Holy Spirit, who live and reign with you above, world without end.  Amen.

(Based on Psalm 144.)

Though man is like breath, and his days like a passing shadow, you have loved us and exalted us in Christ Jesus and by the Holy Spirit.
