Worship will still belong only to Jerusalem

Treat one sacred place as the only place where worship really counts

Worship the Father wherever you are, since no single site has the final claim

Wait for a pilgrimage to the right city before taking worship seriously

Keep worship private, because place never matters at all

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I admit that I have sinned and tried to find my own way to God. I turn from my sin and trust you completely. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. Lead me into true worship of the Father, and be my Lord and Savior. Amen.

Come to the Father Through Jesus

Father, wake your Church from every habit that treats one place or tradition as the only way to come near you. Renew our faith in Jesus, deepen our trust, and teach us to worship you with humble hearts wherever you lead us, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Revive Your Church for True Worship

Name one thing Jesus has said that you are still learning to trust. Ask God to help you believe him before every detail is clear, and ask for one obedient step you can take today.

Pray for Trust Before You Understand

Thank God that worship of the Father is not trapped in one mountain, one city, or one building. Give thanks for the freedom Jesus brings, and for the nearness of the Father to people who trust him.

Giving Thanks for Open Worship

Father, you are worthy of worship in every place and at every moment. Receive my praise beyond familiar settings, and teach me to honor you with a steady heart in ordinary life, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Father, You Are Worthy Everywhere

Pray for people who think God can only be found in one religious place or one familiar pattern: ask the Lord to reveal Jesus to them, free them from fear, and lead them into worship of the Father with joy.

Help Us Find You in Jesus
