PRAYER

Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program

Heavenly Father,

Let all who take refuge in you rejoice. May a song of praise to you be ever on our lips.

Spread your protection over your children and lead us on the straight path.

Guide our steps between your guardrails.

Times are dark and life is hard, but Father, you are good.

Cover your children with favor and pour out your blessings upon the righteous for all to see.

Shield your children from the fiery darts of the evil one and his minions.

Have pity on those lost and wandering.

Call out to them, open their ears to hear and their eyes to see your Holiness.

May they turn to you in repentance.

May we not be a stumbling block to any.

May all our words and actions, all of them, be pleasing to you, Lord.

As we seek to do the little things in life to your glory and honor, prepare us to do the big things that you have planned.

Today, now, may we be a light pointing others to your throne.

Hallelujah! You call us your children.

Hallelujah! Your son is our advocate.

Hallelujah! Your Spirit fills us.

Accept our prayer, lifted in the name of Jesus Christ.

Amen
