Prayer for Friday 6-17-2022

Lord our God, we come into Your presence and bow down before You, the Almighty, the Everlasting God, our Father. We come before You humbly and sincerely and repent, believing in You and in Your will to save us. Your will to save goes out over the whole world, over the whole godless world, that all may repent and be redeemed if they would only choose You. Grant us the thoughts of Your heart so that we may begin to understand Your perfect will. We dedicate ourselves to You wholly, the holy, just, righteous, and merciful God that You are. Grant that we may be Your true children, led and guided by You every day. Turn our hearts to You so that You can make us more and more as You want us to be, more in the image of Jesus. Turn our hearts to You until Your goal of atonement and redemption is reached through the quiet working of Your almighty power. In the holy and precious name of Jesus, the Christ we ask.

Amen.
