Dear God,
I pray and I thank you for your scripture. Thank you for the guidance that you provide for every family in the world. I pray that we would each lead our family in the right direction, always pointing to you as the center of it. Guide us in our responsibilities and our worship of you as a holy perfect God. Help us do everything with excellence as if we were doing it for you. As service to you.
Help us be like the Israelites in the participation of the building of your temple. Let our lives be a place of worship. Let us reach out to our neighbors and our brothers and sisters in Christ that have not had an encounter with you. Give us a passion for the lost, and empower us to proclaim the good news. Instill in us an ability to bring the far from you into the journey of faith with us, to open up our hearts, our homes, and our lives, for the sake of the gospel. Let us love the people around us as you have loved us.
In Jesus’ name, Amen!
