Luke 1:68-79

Loving Divine Family,

We enter your sacred prayer space as your saved and redeemed children. You are our Strong King. You reassure us that we have found favour with you. Your light shines on us. We once lived in darkness, but your light has overwhelmed the darkness. 

Praise to you, Yahweh, for you remember your redemptive promises for all creation and for us. You remember that you loved us first. You showed mercy to our ancestors and delivered them. Your light shines in the darkness, revealing your love and hope.

I walk as a child of your light today, Strong King, and thank you for…

We humbly receive your calling to prepare the space for you in our own hearts, households, and communities. Guide our feet upon your Ancient Path, so our steps will be sure as we sojourn together towards your Holy Mountain.

With joy we praise you!

Amen!

Cherie and Donovan Mutschler

We enter your sacred prayer space, feeling the weight of self-imposed responsibilities. We sometimes feel weak, exhausted, and burdened by life’s circumstances. But we give you thanks, because you reveal to us how we are carried by Life-giving Spirit and the prayers of our ancestors, people in this world, and our Saviour Jesus.

I find peace and joy within your veil today, Mighty Saviour, and thank you for…

Fill us with hope and mercy, so we will find joy and strength to worship you within the storms. Send the light of your love to shine over the landscape of our hearts. Lengthen the days, and set us on fire for you, so we will share your love and joy with each other as we journey together on your Ancient Path.
