Lord, we’re grateful You called us to follow You, however, your plan was never for us to sit idly on our haunches, keeping the life-changing message of Your cross to ourselves. Because our soul’s antagonist constantly reminds us of our failures and imperfections, vast numbers of Your followers think themselves unqualified to share the hope found in the cross. But as usual, the devil is lying—again. You’ve given every Christ-follower talents and gifts that we can use to honor You. When we what You ask of us, people can’t help but give You, Lord Jesus, a second look at putting their faith in You. May we be wide-eyed and amazed, watching lives transformed for You when we’re willing to use what You’ve given us for Your glory.
Lord, heal the sick we pray. Give wisdom to doctors, scientist and researcher to discover the cure for this COVID-19. Reveal all that is hidden so this virus will be eradicated from the earth. May all who are infected with this virus make a full recovery. Comfort the family and friends of those who lost loved ones. Open our spiritual eyes to see Your goodness in all circumstances.
Forgive our sins, show us how to love one another as You love us, Jesus. Amen.
