Reading With the People of God - #3Sample

TODAYS PRAYER:

Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one...

By ourselves we are too weak

to hold our own even for a moment.

And our sworn enemies—

the devil, the world, and our own flesh—

never stop attacking us.

And so, Lord,

uphold us and make us strong

with the strength of your Holy Spirit,

so that we may not go down to defeat

in this spiritual struggle,

but may firmly resist our enemies

until we finally win the complete victory.

Amen.
