Praying with Paul: 'Good News for Every Nation'

Thursday, January 2, 2025

Romans 1:1-4

Dear Father, who commissioned the Good News to all nations,

Thank you that through Christ we have received grace and been commissioned to spread the Good News everywhere to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations, including our own.

Thank you that we here in our country are also called to belong to Jesus Christ. May the grace and peace that comes from you, our Father, and from Jesus be showered upon all of us who claim your promises.

In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have received grace, I pray. Amen.
