May our joy in knowing You Lord, and the realization of what You
have done for us through Jesus, fill us with increasing joy. Strengthen us with
joy, I pray! Father, may all pessimism, unbelief and negative thinking that is
present among us be replaced with vibrant irrepressible joy in Jesus!
(Nehemiah 8:10)
Father, I ask that we, as Your people, might be increasingly known for our
lavish love and forgiveness of one another. Keep us from pride that kills the
work of Your Spirit and hardens our hearts to Your voice calling us to ‘run
home’ to You. Give to us, I pray, the gift of brokenness and repentance. May
we be clothed in humility. (Luke 15:11-32; 1 Peter 5:5)
