Let us pray to our God who has justified us by the work and grace of Jesus alone, that our faith may be strengthened and nourished by His Holy Word.

Holy Lord, You have given us Your Word as Your promise and washed us in Baptism to be Your own people and to live under You in Your kingdom, now and forever. Build us up in Christ, that we may hold the faith in the unity of the Spirit and in the bond of peace as we give evidence of this faith in holiness of life. Reprove us when we are in error and reform what is lacking in us, that we may grow up into Christ, our head. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

God of grace, keep us steadfast in Your Word, and prevent our wayward hearts from following false gospels that lead us away from You. Provide Your Church with faithful pastors who preach in purity and joy, that we are saved by Your grace alone, through faith alone, because of Christ alone. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

Lord, heavenly Father, give wisdom and strength to all fathers in the home and Church. Make them faithful in teaching Your Word to the children entrusted to their care, that these little ones would come to know You as their heavenly Father and live as true children of God. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

Almighty God, when the nations are in uproar and kingdoms fall, teach us to be still and know that You are God. Guide all who govern us so that evil is thwarted, righteousness rewarded and all Your ways are upheld. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

Merciful Lord, hear our prayers for the sick, the joyful and those in any need [especially _____________]. Answer their prayers, preserve them by Your promises and bring them safely through this world to everlasting life. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

Father in heaven, give to all who approach Your altar this day repentant hearts and firm faith in the Savior’s promises. Graciously prevent us from partaking to our judgment, and grant us reverently and joyfully to receive Christ’s body and blood. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

O Lord, we give You thanks for all Your servants who have departed this life in faith. We especially bless You today for the great reformers of Your Church who call us back to the Gospel and to the righteousness we have in Christ alone. Keep us in fellowship with them, and bring us at last to our heavenly home and the joy of seeing our Redeemer face to face; through the same Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

让我们向我们的上帝祷告，祂单单藉着耶稣的工作和恩典称我们为义，愿我们的信心藉着祂的圣言得以坚固和滋养。

圣洁的主， 你将你的圣言作为你的应许赐给我们，并在洗礼中洗净我们，使我们成为你自己的百姓，在你的国度中，现在直到永远都活在你的权下。求你在基督里建立我们，使我们本着圣灵的合一和和平的联结持守这信仰，并在圣洁的生活中将这信心显明出来。当我们犯错时，求你责备我们；当我们有所缺乏时，求你更正，使我们在基督里不断成长，祂是我们的头。求主怜悯，垂听我们祷告。

恩典的上帝， 求你使我们坚定地持守你的圣言，并阻止我们任性的心去追随那引我们离开你的虚假福音。求你为你的教会预备忠心的牧师，以纯洁和喜乐宣讲福音，使我们单单因你的恩典，单单藉着信心，单单因着基督而得救。求主怜悯，垂听我们祷告。

主，天父， 求你将智慧和力量赐给家中和教会中所有的父母。使他们忠心地将你的圣言教导给托付给他们看顾的孩子们，使这些小小的生命认识你是他们的天父，并活出真神儿女的样式。求主怜悯，垂听我们祷告。

全能的上帝， 当列国动乱、邦国倾覆时，求你教导我们安静，知道你是上帝。求你引导所有治理我们的人，使邪恶受阻，公义得报，使你的所有道路得以维持。求主怜悯，垂听我们祷告。

天父， 求你将悔改的心和对救主应许坚定的信心赐给今日所有来到你祭坛前的人。求你施恩，不要我们领受主的圣餐时领受自己的审判，使我们虔敬喜乐地领受基督的身体和宝血。求主怜悯，垂听我们祷告。

主啊， 我们感谢你所有的仆人，他们已带着信心离开了这生命。我们今日特别为教会中的伟大改教家们称颂你，他们呼唤我们回归福音，回归我们单单在基督里所得的义。求你使我们与他们保持交通，并最终将我们带入天家，享受与我们的救赎主面对面相见的喜乐；求主怜悯，垂听我们祷告。
