Amos 7:12-15, Psalm 85, Ephesians 1:3-14, Mark 6:7-13

Jesus empowers us today

Consider this early church prayer from Ephesians. You are blessed with every spiritual blessing. You are chosen to be holy and pure through love in Christ’s presence. You are adopted into God’s family. Your sin has been wiped clean by the blood of Jesus. You exist for the praise of God. You have been given the gift of faith and are sealed forever by the Holy Spirit who brings freedom and grace. Jesus empowers us today to be like him, as he did the first disciples.
