Gracious God

We acknowledge our status as recipients of your profound love and the transformative message of your gospel through our salvation. Illuminate the eyes of our hearts so that we may attain a deeper understanding of the hope to which You have called us: the hope of eternal life. May we be inspired by the Great Commission and ardently pursue the goal of making disciples across all nations.

We beseech You to open avenues in all aspects of our lives. May You facilitate the interactions we will engage in, particularly within our workplaces, educational institutions, recreational activities, and personal relationships. Grant us the awareness to identify opportunities to bear witness to the greatness, glory, and goodness of our Savior. Bestow upon us the courage to seize these opportunities and declare the hope of redemption in Christ and the promise of eternal life, for the advancement of Your glory and our benefit.

As articulated in Colossians 4:2-4, may we “Continue steadfastly in prayer, being vigilant therein with gratitude; and pray for us as well, that God may provide a doorway for the word, to unveil the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in chains, that I may communicate it clearly, as I ought to speak.”

We respectfully request these considerations through the sacrifice of Your Son. Amen.
