Prayer based on Mark 9:14-29, Jesus healing a boy possessed by a destructive spirit
Answer us, Great God of Justice,
Lord of Hope
Bringer of Change and New Life
Have mercy
Draw near
Finish your good and generous work
Release us from
the chains of this moment, born of imprisoned years
the distractions and false calls of those who cannot help
the apathy keeping us from seeing, speaking, and caring
the smallness of your Kingdom stealing our courage to try
the slowness of your Kingdom chipping away at our enduring
We believe, help our unbelief
Raise us from our comas to stand with you
Release our petified voices
Deliver us of our demons
You have made us new
You are making us new
You are making all things new
