The Lord reigns, he is robed in majesty; the Lord is robed in majesty and armed with strength; indeed, the world is established, firm and secure. Your throne was established long ago; you are from all eternity (Ps 93:1–2 NIV11).
Today, Tuesday, September 08, begins our 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting: As a parish, we are seeking God to know him more intimately, experience his Holy Spirit more powerfully, touch lives in our community more personally, and meet needs in our county more sensitively. This week, our focus in prayer will be adoring the character of God and praising the beauty of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Prayer: Almighty Father, God of majesty, whose greatness exceeds the heavens and whose majesty fills the earth. You are our Creator, you made us in your likeness and gave us this earth for our provision and enjoyment. We thank you that nothing exceeds your ability and nothing takes you by surprise. Remind us, dear Lord, that every moment of our lives is spent before your sight and lived before your all-knowing presence. We pray, transform our lives that they may reflect your glorious greatness, and thereby, make Jesus more attractive to all we know and meet; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
