Praying Through Advent, His Government

DECEMBER 4, HIS GOVERNMENT

Adoration & Worship
We bow in reverence to our king—the son of man, son of God. The government is on your shoulders, Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Your reign will only increase! Isaiah 9:6-7

Repentance & Confession
I have gone astray and turned to my own way. Forgive me for trusting what was right in my own eyes over your government. I want to be a stream of water in your hand. Isaiah 53:6, Proverbs 21:1-3

Petition (asking for personal needs)
Enlarge my heart, Lord, so I can run in your ways. Psalm 119:32

Intercession (praying for others)
Oh that we would stretch our tent pegs, Lord, open wide the curtains, and strengthen our stakes, and possess the land (figuratively and literally) you have given us, Lord of hosts, God of the whole earth. Isaiah 54:2-3, 5

Thanksgiving
Thank you, Jesus, you are the Good Shepherd who saves and leads us to pastures, to springs of living water. Your reign and rule are life and life more abundantly. John 10:9-10, Revelation 7:17
