Gracious and merciful Father,

In this moment of obedience, I pray for your people, Lord God. Teach your people that humble service is the path to the kingdom of greatness and eternal life.

I pray that our eyes continue to be fixated on your will and your will only, Father. I pray that our meekness and humility are displayed through our daily lives honoring and glorifying you and you only, Lord God.

Continue to humble your people, Father. Continue to teach us that we are nothing without you and you alone are God. O, sovereign and loving God, we belong to you.

Your truth runs counter to our self-exalting world. You must always be greater, and we must always become less—only then does the glorious reality shine forth that Christ is highly exalted above every name in heaven and on earth.

Forgive us, Lord God, when we stumble or fall short.

At the sound of your name, Jesus, every knee shall bow humbly before you.

Bless your name, Lord.

In Jesus’s holy, righteous, and sovereign name, Amen.
