Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I am Sherry Nacki, and it's time for us to
- 0:03Speaker 1: go to God in a prayer. And as always, I
- 0:07Speaker 1: invite you to join along with us in prayer. And
- 0:10Speaker 1: this Holy Week, I want to just pray a prayer
- 0:14Speaker 1: of surrender, not my will, God, but yours be done,
- 0:19Speaker 1: Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus. As we walk
- 0:22Speaker 1: through this sacred Holy Week, we come with humble, surrendered hearts,
- 0:27Speaker 1: laying down our will at your feet. In this holy moment,
- 0:31Speaker 1: we reflect on Jesus in the garden, facing pain, uncertainty,
- 0:35Speaker 1: and the weight of what was ahead, yet still choosing
- 0:38Speaker 1: to pray not my will but yours be done. Lord,
- 0:44Speaker 1: teach us how to surrender like that, because if we're honest, Father,
- 0:47Speaker 1: surrender doesn't come easy.
- 0:50Speaker 2: We like control.
- 0:51Speaker 1: We hold tightly to our plans, our timelines, our expectations.
- 0:56Speaker 1: We try to figure everything out and fix everything ourselves
- 1:00Speaker 1: and hold everything together. But today, God, we release it.
- 1:04Speaker 1: We loosen our grip on what we thought life should
- 1:08Speaker 1: look like. We surrender the plans that didn't unfold the
- 1:11Speaker 1: way we expected. We release the people we tried to
- 1:14Speaker 1: hold on to. We let go of outcomes we've been
- 1:18Speaker 1: trying to control, and we place all of it God
- 1:22Speaker 1: in your hands, even when it's uncomfortable, even when it
- 1:26Speaker 1: stretches us beyond what's familiar, even when it breaks part
- 1:30Speaker 1: of what we thought we needed.
- 1:32Speaker 2: God, we declare that you are still good. Father. Give
- 1:36Speaker 2: us the strength to say.
- 1:38Speaker 1: Yes to your wiel, even when we don't understand it,
- 1:41Speaker 1: even when the path is unclear, even when obedience requires sacrifice.
- 1:46Speaker 2: Help us to trust that what you are.
- 1:48Speaker 1: Doing in us is greater than what we can currently
- 1:52Speaker 1: see before us.
- 1:54Speaker 2: Lord searches.
- 1:56Speaker 1: Strip away anything in us that does not look like you.
- 2:00Speaker 1: Remove pride God that resists surrender, Remove fear that tries
- 2:05Speaker 1: to control the outcomes, Remove doubt that questions your plan,
- 2:10Speaker 1: and in its place, God, fill us with your obedience,
- 2:13Speaker 1: Fill us with peace, Fill us with unwavering faith. Father.
- 2:17Speaker 2: As Jesus walked towards.
- 2:19Speaker 1: Across, he did it with purpose. He did not turn back,
- 2:22Speaker 1: he did not quit, He trusted you fully. Help us
- 2:25Speaker 1: God to walk boldly and our purpose this week with
- 2:29Speaker 1: that same resolve. Remind us that surrender is not weakness,
- 2:33Speaker 1: it is strength, It is trust. It is placing our
- 2:36Speaker 1: lives in the hands of a faithful God who sees
- 2:38Speaker 1: the end from the beginning. So today Lord we surrender completely.
- 2:43Speaker 1: We surrender our hearts, we surrender our minds, we surrender
- 2:47Speaker 1: our plans, we surrender our future.
- 2:49Speaker 2: Have your way, God, have your way in us.
- 2:52Speaker 1: Be glorified through us, and let your will be done
- 2:55Speaker 1: in every area of our lives. In Jesus' name, he man,
- 3:00Speaker 1: Amen and Amen.
