Almighty God,
govern the hearts and minds of those in authority
and mercifully grant that the peoples of the world,
divided and torn apart by sin,
may be brought together
under the gentle rule of Christ.
Amen.
Apocrypha Reading - Wisdom through the Spirit
13For who can learn the counsel of God?
Or who can discern what the Lord wills?
14For the reasoning of mortals is worthless,
and our designs are likely to fail;
15for a perishable body weighs down the soul,
and this earthy tent burdens the thoughtfula mind.
16We can hardly guess at what is on earth,
and what is at hand we find with labour;
but who has traced out what is in the heavens?
17Who has learned your counsel,
unless you have given wisdom
and sent your holy spirit from on high?
- Or anxious
God set us free to worship without fear;*
holy and righteous all the days of our life.
Intercession
Please remember our Prayer Requests
In the morning, Lord, you hear our voice:
we make our appeal and watch for you.
Lord, have mercy. E te Ariki, kia aroha mai.
Come, O Lord, and bless the righteous;
defend them with your favour as with a shield.
Christ, have mercy. E te Karaiti, kia aroha mai.
Let all the earth fear you, O Lord our God;
let all who dwell in the world stand in awe of you
Lord, have mercy. E te Ariki, kia aroha mai.
Amen.
