Restoration Project: O Lord, Hear Our Prayer

The Restoration Project 31 Day Series by Katie M Reid

Welcome to Day #12 of the Restoration Project.

We’ve talked a lot about rest so far in this series, but not a lot about prayer. Let’s change that today.

We recently attended a wedding for my cousin and his beautiful wife. The ceremony took place in a Catholic Church. During the Prayers for the Faithful the bride’s cousin prayed for a person or group of people and then the congregation responded with, “O Lord, hear our prayer.”

It was a beautiful ritual of a group of people lifting their voices to the Lord in unison—collectively coming before the Lord and asking Him to hear their heart’s cry.

This stuck with me, so I thought that we could do something similar today.

Let’s pray:

For the refugees that are suffering around the world,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

For the leaders of our country to know the will of God and then obey it,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

For marriages to be strengthened and families to be protected,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

For our hearts and motives to be pure and our hands to work as unto You,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

For our souls to find rest in You as You direct our days,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

For healing for the sick and comfort for the grieving,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

O Lord heart our prayer by Katie M. Reid

For forgiveness for our sins, past, present and future,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

For obedience to Your Word and unity with Your Spirit in the body of Christ,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

For hope, strength and protection for those serving our country in the military,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

For Your keeping of our children as they learn and the teachers as they educate them,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

For protection of unborn babies, provision for single parents and gainful employment for the jobless,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

For endurance, attentiveness and encouragement for parents as they raise their children in this present age,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

For respect for the elderly and advocacy for the disabled,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

For us to be faithful to You in this day that You have given us,

O Lord, hear our prayer.

In Jesus’ Name we pray,

Amen.

Signature for Katie M Reid
