Staying Awake - Luke 21:29-38

Father thank you that your Son’s word will not pass away.

Your word is eternal and true,

We can bank our lives on it.

May we not be weighed down by our desires and the cares of this world.

May we not be entrapped by that day.

Instead may we stand (ready) at the coming of the Son of Man.

Do Not Be Afraid - Luke 21:8-28

Father

We are in danger of being seduced and led astray by false Christs.

We are afraid at the potential pain that awaits us in the future;

Afraid at the persecution and the terrors of our world.

May we bear witness.

Secure in the knowledge of your deliverance.

Waiting for the moment when we see you.

May we lift up our heads,

Knowing that our redemption is drawing near.
