What is your response to God’s Word today?

Take time to Pray in response to Paul’s God, your God.

O God of truth,
I read
Help me believe
And trust in You
With all my monies
In good times and in hard times.
May Your Holy Spirit work in and through me.
As You were doing in Paul’s day
As You are doing across the world.
In Jesus’ name.
Amen – we pray together.

(Pray your own words to the LORD God
In worship and thanks for what you have read,
In confession and need to be more like Jesus,
And for others known to you at this time in a hard place.)

O LORD of mercy, receive our morning praise and hear our prayers for Your Church.
We ask in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
