Epistle Reflection

We have come to God who is the judge of all,
and the spirits of the good, made perfect;
we have come to Jesus, mediator of the new covenant.

New Testament Reading - Pray for Others

thumb

1Here are my directions: Pray much for others; plead for God’s mercy upon them; give thanks for all he is going to do for them.

2Pray in this way for kings and all others who are in authority over us, or are in places of high responsibility, so that we can live in peace and quietness, spending our time in godly living and thinking much about the Lord.a 3 This is good and pleases God our Savior, 4for he longs for all to be saved and to understand this truth: 5That God is on one side and all the people on the other side, and Christ Jesus, himself man, is between them to bring them together, 6by giving his life for all mankind.

This is the message that at the proper time God gave to the world. 7And I have been chosen — this is the absolute truth — as God’s minister and missionary to teach this truth to the Gentiles and to show them God’s plan of salvation through faith.

. . . . . 1 Timothy 2:1-7

Heavenly Father
We pray for… those in need:
those who suffer;
the sick;
the poor;
the distressed;
the lonely; the unloved;
the persecuted;
the unemployed;
those who grieve; and those who care for them…
Comfort and heal, merciful Lord,
all who are in sorrow, need, sickness, or any other trouble.
Give them a firm trust in your goodness;
help those who minister to them;
and bring us all into the joy of your salvation.
Father, hear our prayer,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
