A Prayer That You Could Pray Today

Here is prayer that you could pray:

O, that You would rend the heavens and come down. Come down and make Your name known.

Even among your own people many have such a vague grasp of Your glory. To many You seem distant. Let us see with fresh clarity, who You really are. By Your Holy Spirit, show us Your love, that we may know the love by which Your Son gave Himself for us. By Your Holy Spirit, show us Your power, that we may know the power by which You raised Your Son from the dead and seated Him at Your right hand in heaven. Come and cleanse us from our sins. Break the pride of our self-righteousness, and cause us to find in Christ alone our life, our hope, our righteousness, and our redemption.

Make us people who pray. Reshape us as people who strive to lay hold of You. Come down and move among us in power. Come, because You are our Father. Come like the potter, and shape what pleases You in my life and in the church. Make us ready for the day when You will rend the heavens and come down, that we may rise and meet You with fullness of joy. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
