Prayer for Monday

Lord Jesus, our Savior, we look upward to Heaven, for You will come from Heaven in the glory of the Father. May we remain true to our calling, watching and praying every day and every hour, waiting for You, ever alert, ever vigilant, who will bring into order everything on earth. Bless us and bless our land with Your saving grace. Grant us the joy to see You working through Your servants toward the salvation of all peoples. Be with us with anointing and power, and bless us as we glorify You in what we do. May Your living Word work in our hearts so that every day, every festival, and every celebratory day from now on may be a day of joy in You. Protect us. Bless us. May Your name be praised in our hearts! May the wonderful name of Jesus, be honored and glorified in all we do, we ask of You.

Amen.
