Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I am Sherry Mackie, and it's time right now for
- 0:03Speaker 1: us to go to God in prayer. And today I
- 0:07Speaker 1: just want to pray about making sure that we leave
- 0:11Speaker 1: a legacy behind a legacy of trust and faith and hope.
- 0:16Speaker 1: In Jesus Christ, Oh Heavenly Father, we come before you
- 0:19Speaker 1: with humble hearts today, grateful for the gift of life
- 0:23Speaker 1: and the calling God that you placed on each of
- 0:25Speaker 1: our lives. Thank You for the example of Abraham, a
- 0:29Speaker 1: man who trusted You beyond what his eyes could see,
- 0:32Speaker 1: a man whose faith became a legacy for generations. Lord,
- 0:36Speaker 1: we're reminded today that the lives we live are not
- 0:40Speaker 1: just for ourselves, but for those who will come after us.
- 0:44Speaker 1: Help us, God, to walk in a way that honors you,
- 0:47Speaker 1: not just in our words, but in our actions, in
- 0:50Speaker 1: our quiet obedience and steady trust, and in bold life.
- 0:55Speaker 1: Let our families witness your love and a life filled
- 0:58Speaker 1: with faith when they how we live at home, and
- 1:01Speaker 1: when they see how we handle other people, especially those
- 1:06Speaker 1: that are not so easy to love. God, Just as
- 1:10Speaker 1: Abraham believed your promises even when they seemed impossible, let
- 1:14Speaker 1: us hold tightly to your word and live in such
- 1:17Speaker 1: a way that those who follow us are inspired to
- 1:21Speaker 1: believe in You more deeply. Lord. We confess that too
- 1:25Speaker 1: often we focus on temporary success or recognition from other people.
- 1:29Speaker 1: But your word tells us that righteousness is credited to
- 1:34Speaker 1: those who believe God. Let our legacy be built not
- 1:37Speaker 1: on possessions, not on titles God, but on faith that
- 1:41Speaker 1: moves mountain, love that heals wounds, and hope that points
- 1:46Speaker 1: to eternity. God. Teach us to plant seeds of kindness,
- 1:49Speaker 1: to speak words that build up, and to stand firm
- 1:52Speaker 1: in truth. God, whether we are parents, whether we're teachers, mentors,
- 1:56Speaker 1: or simply friends, let us influence ours through the quiet
- 2:01Speaker 1: strength of a life surrendered to You, Father, God. When
- 2:05Speaker 1: the world presses us to conform, help us to be
- 2:08Speaker 1: set apart, living not for approval but for purpose. Let
- 2:12Speaker 1: our characters speak louder than our achievements. Let our prayer
- 2:15Speaker 1: shape generations we may never meet. Let our footsteps lead
- 2:19Speaker 1: others God toward You. And when our time on this earth,
- 2:23Speaker 1: is done, may it be said of us as it
- 2:26Speaker 1: was said of Abraham, that we were friends of God,
- 2:28Speaker 1: that we were faithful, that we were trusting, and that
- 2:31Speaker 1: we were committed to the journey you called us to walk. God,
- 2:37Speaker 1: we thank you for the privilege of leaving a godly legacy,
- 2:40Speaker 1: and we ask for your spirit to guide us every
- 2:43Speaker 1: single day. God, let our lives echo into eternity, pointing
- 2:48Speaker 1: back to your goodness.
