1Kings 6; Ephesians 3; Ezekiel 36; Psalm 86

prayer arising:

You are abounding in love, O Lord, great is Your love to me. I come boldly, with freedom and confidence into Your presence this morning, rooted and established in Your love. I pray that I would have power to know how much You love - the height, width and depth of Your love. I pray that this Your church would make known to all spiritual authorities that You are God and that in Christ we are sharing together Your promise of cleansing, of a new heart and a new Spirit - may my heart of flesh now act with justice as Your love overflows in abundance, my God of all compassion and grace, whose glory in Christ rests not on the perfection of a temple but in Your willingness to be pierced by my sin so that in all my imperfections I can be embraced in the midst of Your glory and power and know the wonder of Your promise of new life.

Amen
