Dear Father,
As the infinitely wise, omnipotent, awesome, patient creator, we come to ask that you will help us raise up leaders who will guide us in obedience to your ancient command.
And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” Genesis 1:28 (ESV)
May these people guide us to use carefully and generously those multitudes of gifts that you infused into the creation during those six marvelous days.
We ask these blessings in the name of Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord,
Amen.
