Partakers Friday Prayers!

We pray together and when Christians pray together, from different nations, different churches and different denominations - that reveals Church unity! Come! Let us pray together!

A prayer of John Calvin from the 16th century

Almighty God,
since under the guidance of Your Son,
I have been united together in the body of Your Church,
which has been in the past, often scattered and torn apart,
O grant that I may continue in the unity of faith,
and perseveringly fight together
against all the temptations of this world,
and never deviate from the right course,
whatever new troubles may daily arise;
let me not be seized with fear,
such as may quench every hope in my heart;

but may I, on the contrary,
learn to raise up my eyes and mind
and all my thoughts to Your great power alone,
by which You quicken the dead,
and raise from nothing things which are not,
so that, though I be daily exposed to ruin,
our souls may ever aspire to eternal salvation,
until You at length really show Yourself
to be the fountain of life,
when I shall enjoy that endless joy,
which has been obtained for me
only by the blood of Your begotten Son,
my Lord Jesus Christ.
Amen
