Dear LORD ~ You have given us many invitations to come to You. You have invited us to come with our sins, with our troubles, with our mistakes, with our cares, with our sorrows. To come with petitions and intercessions for our families, our friends, our Nation and our Heroes. You have told us to come at all times, that we shall never be unwelcome, never be turned away, and never find You too busy to hear us. You have promised us mercy for our sins, comfort for our sorrows, strength for our duties, wisdom for our ignorance, when we come to You. We thank You for all these precious invitations and assurances. For indeed we proclaim: Whom have I in heaven but Thee? And beside Thee I desire none upon earth. . . the nearness of God is my good. (Ps. 73:25, 28) AMEN. Oh GOD, we think of those for whom You speak these words: “By repentance and rest you are saved, in quietness and trust is your strength— but you were not willing.” (Isaiah 30:15). Dear LORD, please, may YOUR FAVOR grant willing hearts to those who are hardened even this day.

What would we do, O God, if we might not then come to You? To whom else could we go? There is no other in all the universe who could help us — as we must be helped. Our hearts are full of praise and rejoicing, that we may come to You. We thank You that we are so blessed, that we have all Your divine love and grace to help us in our times of need. We need no other help, but Yours. We come this morning with all our burdens. Dear LORD, please hear the burdens of our hearts for our Nation. We have sins. These are our worst burdens. They will sink us to eternal despair unless we find help. We thank You that the Lord Jesus bore our sins, and bore them away. In His name, depending upon His atonement, we come with our sins. We have other needs. We are not strong enough for duty. We cannot stand against the world and the power of Satan. We have no wisdom for life's problems, its duties, its responsibilities. We need strength, we need wisdom, we need GRACE — for every moment. So we come to You, our Father, as Your redeemed children. Receive us, bless us, keep us, help us. We ask through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
