Ephesians 3:18
And may you have the power to understand, as all God's people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is.
Lord Jesus, our loving Savior and Servant Messiah, although You made and own creation You clothed Yourself in human flesh and ministered to fallen humanity. You have shown Your servant will and way to us. You have conquered the powers of Satan, sin, and death so that we might find meaning in this life and eternal joy in the life to come. Inspire us to point people to You -- the smiling, welcome King of an Eternal realm. Empower us to tell people about You with our lips, and to show them what You are like with our lives.
Heavenly Father, giver of life and health: Comfort and relieve your sick servants, and give your power of healing to those who minister to their needs, that those who we name out loud now........... may be strengthened in their weakness and have confidence in your loving care.
O God, our heavenly Father, whose glory fills the whole creation, and whose presence we find wherever we go: Preserve us as we travel during this holiday time; surround us with your loving care; protect us from every danger; and bring us in safety to our journey’s end.
To you our Servant King, be all the glory and honor, now and forever. Amen.
