Personal Prayer
Praise the sovereign Lord who cares for his sheep (Ezek. 34:11). Thank the Lord for shepherding you, caring for you in his rich pasture (34:14). Confess times of wandering away from the side of the Good Shepherd. Commit yourself to rejoicing in the bounty he provides for you. Ask God to help you be a blessing with the blessings you’ve been given.
For Your Family and Friends
Pray that those closest to you will always remain close to God. Ask God to nurture them to wholeness in his care (34:11-16).
For the Church
Pray that your church’s caregiving and fellowship efforts will be led by faithful shepherds who care for the flock (34:1-10). Ask God to give them compassionate diligence to strengthen the weak, heal the sick, and bind up the injured (34:4).
For the Kingdom
Pray that God’s covenant of peace will soon be experienced in fullness, when we will fully know that the sovereign Lord is our God and we are his people (34:25-31).
For People to Know Jesus
Pray that God will search for the lost and bring back the strays, bringing wholeness to them (34:16). Ask him to seek an unsaved or straying friend through you.
