PRAYER IN PREPARATION FOR WORSHIP: O Lord God, you led your people through the wilderness and brought them to the promised land. So guide us, that, following our Savior, we may walk through the wilderness of this world toward the glory of the world to come; through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
Leader: The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
People: And also with you.
Leader: Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless God’s holy name.
People: Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all God’s benefits.
Leader: Who forgives all our sins and heals all our infirmities;
All: Who redeems your life from the grave, and crowns you with mercy and loving-kindness.
Almighty God, who sent the promised power of the Holy Spirit to fill disciples with willing Faith: We confess that we resist the power of your Spirit among us, that we are slow to serve you and reluctant to spread the good news of your love. God, have mercy on us.
Forgive our divisions and by your Spirit draw us together. Inflame us with desire to do your will and be your faithful people for the sake of your Son, our Lord, Jesus Christ. Amen.
