장소: 대덕한빛교회 영어예배

Our Father, thank You for giving this day. Thank You for making us to come here to worship and praise You.

Father, we praise and worship You in spirit and in truth because You are spirit. We lift up Your name for You are the loving God. You sent Your one and the only son, Jesus, to save us. We believe in Jesus, we believe that Jesus is the only savior. He won against the death and gave us the eternal life. We confess that there is no other way to come to You, Father God.

Father, we thank You for giving us this congregation. You didn't let us stay alone, You gave us friends, brothers and sisters who can worship You together. We pray for our brothers and sisters who are in trouble. If they have difficulties in the relationship with others, please help them. If they are in trouble in their work place, please be with them when they work. If they have problems of health, please care about them.

Father, lead us not into temptation. Keep us apart from the voices of the world. People say there is no God. But we know You are the living God. Some people say there is no absolute truth. They say only relative truth exists. They say each one may has his own truth. But we know Your truth, the Bible is not for just one tribe, but for all nations and tribes. Some people say we must run for the achievement in the world. They say the success in the job, career, and making lots of money are the most important things in the life. But we know that You want us to be with You and to live the life as Your children. We know that You want us to love You and others. So Father keep us apart from various voices of the world which lead us into temptation. Father guide us and be with us.

Father we have a dream that Your kingdom enlarges by us. Use our lives to reveal the truth to people still in the darkness. We want to see Your kingdom come to everybody, to all nations.

Father, bless our pastor and pour Your spirit on him. Be with him when he preaches. Let us learn about You and know You more by heart. Change our life by Your words.

We thank You for everything You gave us. We thank You for the new life.

Father, we love You.

We pray in Jesus' name, amen.
