December 13 Prayer

‘Sing for joy and be glad, O daughter of Zion!
For I am coming to dwell among you” this is the Lord’s declaration.
Many nations will join themselves to the Lord on that day and become my people. I will dwell among you, and you will know that the Lord of Hosts has sent Me to you.” Zech.2:10-11

Today we light the candle of Joy.
Be still and know that the Lord God is among you.
Never give up hope,
Let peace be your center
and Joy will dwell deep inside of you.

‘We give thanks to You, our God,
for You have chosen to come and dwell among us.
We open our hearts to your presence here and now.
May the knowledge of the Holy One renew our hope, and lighten our hearts.
May we be ones that live in the light of your love to bring this hope and joy to the world around us.

Pause and be still,
lift up all of those who are hopeless and without this knowing.
Ask for God’s presence to fill them with hope and to come to Him.

We choose joy today,
We choose Jesus!
Emmanuel,
Come, Lord Jesus!

Amen
