Dear God,

As we come before you today, we are reminded of your righteousness and holiness. We are grateful for the gift of salvation through your Son, Jesus Christ, who died on the cross for our sins.

We recognize that all have sinned and fallen short of your glory. That includes us. We ask for your forgiveness and the grace to turn away from our sins. Please help us to live a life that is pleasing to you and to follow your commandments.

We also remember your wrath against unrighteousness and those who suppress the truth. We pray we may be beacons and carriers of your message. We pray for those who have yet to accept your Son as their Lord and Savior. May they come to know your love and mercy and turn away from their wicked ways.

We ask that you guide us daily and give us the strength to resist temptation. May we always seek your will and follow your ways.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
