Our Heavenly Father, we continue to pray in the Name that is above every name, the Name of Jesus. The Church is not only Your body, but we are known to You as the sheep of Your pasture. Your Word says, “Acknowledge that the LORD is God! He made us, and we are his. We are his people, the sheep of his pasture.” We have gone astray from the Shepherd and Bishop of our own souls. Bring us back from our backsliding and our wonderings from You, our true Shepherd who cares so deeply for His sheep. The Scripture says, “All of us have strayed away like sheep. We have left God’s paths to follow our own…”
You spoke through Solomon, the wisest man in all the earth and said: “At times I might shut up the heavens so that no rain falls, or I might command locusts to devour your crops, or I might send plagues among you. Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and heal their land.”
We come with great humility before our God and Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, and ask you to forgive us. We are Your sheep that have heard Your voice but now are dull of hearing, and have seen your wonderful ways in which you work, but now we are blind and cannot see. Let us buy from You the ointment for our eyes so we will be able to see You again!
Today, we humble ourselves before the mighty hand of God and offer ourselves again to Your will and purpose. Your Word says, “Fear of the Lord teaches a person to be wise; humility precedes honor.” When we are finished with this life, we will be honored by You if we will remain true to our confession of humility!
