Prayer on Beginning to Worship God

Almighty God, assist us to walk prudently and to fear You, as we assemble before You now.  Order our thoughts and hearts to give You the attention, honor and worship You are due.

We are a distracted people, flitting from one thing to the next.  

Fix our eyes on You, we pray.

We are a multi-tasking people, trying to spin 7 plates in the air at the same time.  

Give us single-hearted devotion to You.

As the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters, so our eyes look to You, Yahweh, our God.

You are the King; command us.

You are the Savior; forgive us.

You are the Shepherd; guide us.

You are the Father; feed us.

Holy God, we draw near to You through Jesus Christ, by the Holy Spirit, who lives and reigns with You, 1 God from age to age - Amen.
