God of All That Is:
Today we call your day. We take a few moments out of our various busy schedules and stop. You, alone, know all that is going on in our lives. You, alone, know what our thoughts and desires are. You, alone, know what we truly need. You, alone, are the one who can provide us with all that we need. Of all the other "gods" revered by man, we know that You, alone, are the one and true God--the God of Isaiah, of Jacob, of Moses, of Jesus. You, alone, are our God and we live to serve You.
On this Sunday, many of Your children celebrate "Christ the King" Sunday. Today, we honor and worship Christ as our King. Through Your son, You reign as supreme Sovereign. We give You, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit all the honor, glory, and reverence due.
As we prepare to welcome the Christ-child into our lives, may we realize the true peace that Jesus brings. Give us the spirits of servants as we ready ourselves for the Advent season. May we donate our time and our efforts to those who have not what we do. This season, O God, is filled with light. Let us always keep Christ as our Light.
Today, as we honor Christ as the King, we offer our prayers to those who reign as Kings on Earth. We offer this world's leaders up to You, O God. Grant them wisdom and guidance. This world is in a dark time, Creator God. Lend Your Spirit to those with the power to remedy that. We ask, especially, that you lend Your Spirit, guidance, and wisdom to President Elect Barack Obama and his family and administration. We ask that You would give Barack all that he needs to govern this country and restore us from this quagmire that we are in now.
Wonderful God, pour Your Spirit upon us all, that we might be Your sons and daughters. Let Your Spirit flow wherever She desires--as the rivers and streams flow across the land, so too let Your Spirit flow.
Glory to the Creator, to the Christ, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be--a world with out end, Amen.
