Community Prayers
Prayers of Intercession
10/07/2018
Longing for God’s will to be fulfilled among us, we pray persistently for the church, the world, and all people in need.
Holy God, send your blessing out into the world through missionaries, evangelists, and servants of your church.
Through them spread good news to all who need it.
Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
We praise you for the animals of the field, the birds of the air, the fish of the sea, and all the works of your hands.
Let our care for all you have made reflect your desire for the health of all creation.
God we are ever mindful of the raging natural disasters that have been afflicted within your creation:
fire, flood, earthquakes, tsunamis…
Lay you healing hand on all who have suffered and restore your creation and all communities to health.
Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
God of the cosmos, sending wisdom down to rule all nations of this world with the same grace you employ to align planets, stars, and moons.
Where there is disorder in leadership and government where domesticate or foreign, move us as people created in your image toward righteousness and justice. Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
God who blessed the little children. Deliver your care to your children who feel unworthy of care.
Those who are separated from families at the border and placed in tent camps awaiting reunion or deportation.
Bend down low to lift up people who struggle to find others who will embrace them in time of need.
Bring reconciliation among communities, families and governments separated by partisanship and ethical differences.
Heal relationships that are broken.
When we face division, open our eyes to signs of new life.
Lord we lift many before your throne of Grace.
Hear now the prayers of your people God as they are spoken out loud and silently from their hearts….
Enfold all things in your compassion, O God, and bring us into your life through the faithfulness of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord.
Amen.
