Gracious and loving Father,
As we bow before Your presence, we thank You for the profound truths You have revealed to us through Your Word. We acknowledge that You are the ultimate source of all blessings and that true prosperity is found in living according to Your kingdom principles.
Lord, we are convicted by the examples of radical generosity displayed by the early Christians in the book of Acts. Their selfless devotion to one another and their willingness to share everything they had are a testament to the transformative power of Your Spirit.
Forgive us, Lord, for the times when we have been consumed by greed and selfish ambition, chasing after earthly treasures rather than seeking first Your kingdom. Help us to repent of our materialistic mindset and to embrace the call to sacrificial giving with joyful hearts.
Grant us, O God, the grace to live lives marked by radical generosity, following the example of Your Son, Jesus Christ, who gave His very life for our salvation. May we be willing to lay down our own desires and comforts for the sake of others, knowing that in doing so, we reflect Your love and compassion to the world.
Empower us, Lord, to be faithful stewards of the resources You have entrusted to us, using them to advance Your kingdom and meet the needs of those around us. Fill us with Your Holy Spirit, that we may be guided by Your wisdom and inspired to act with compassion and kindness toward all.
Father, we pray for a revival of generosity within Your Church, that we may be known not for our wealth or success, but for our willingness to share and care for one another in love. May our lives be a living testimony to Your grace and goodness, drawing others into the abundant life found only in You.
In Jesus' name, we pray.
Amen.
