Almighty God,
thank You that we can come close to You,
knowing that the barrier of sin has been removed.
Thank You that You give us true rest
for our soul and perfect peace
to our hearts –
and that in the midst of any storm
Your peace that passes
human understanding remains.
Look with mercy on those
who have yet to know your salvation.
Convict the hearts of people of their need
to come to You and enable them
to place their trust in Your redemptive blood
for the forgiveness of sin.
Thank You in Jesus’ Name.
Amen

Heavenly Father,
thank You that despite the wickedness
of the human heart and the evil intentions
in the mind of the fallen man and woman,
You determined from before the foundation
of the earth, to redeem Your creatures
and You chose to forgive the sins of those
who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Thank You that all who believe in Him
are declared righteous by Your grace.
You are a good and gracious God
Who forgives our iniquity,
declares us righteous,
and remembers our sins no more.
Help us to walk in Your ways
and to point others to Jesus,
the Author and Finisher of our faith.
In His Name we pray. Amen

Pray that the humanitarian relief reaches the affected areas as quickly as possible.
