A Prayer for the Global Week of Prayer

Father of the nations, we join with our global family, lifting voices and hearts to you, the Creator, who reigns over all. Please hear our prayer:

Lord, show us your glory.

Come quickly, shine brightly, illuminate every part of the world. May your glory be revealed by the power of the Holy Spirit, and your Son, Jesus, exalted across the earth.

Lord, show us your glory.

Strengthen your church, may it be a light in the darkness. Where there is weakness, give strength. Where there is fear, grant courage. And where there is despair, ignite hope.

Lord, show us your glory.

We ask for new life to spring forth, for joy to overflow and your kingdom to come. Help us to find our voice and empower our witness that we might proclaim your truth.

Lord, show us your glory.

Shine your light into the darkness, transform our nations, heal our land, and bring peace to all. Jesus, reveal yourself as the way, the truth, and the life throughout your beautiful planet.

Lord, show us your glory.

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Amen.
