Receive his lead and set aside the need to look important

Wait for a more dramatic display before obeying

Honor him only when he supports your own plans

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I know I have sinned and need your mercy. I turn from my sin and from ruling my own life. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I confess you as Lord and receive you as my King and Savior. Lead me in your humble way. Amen.

Receive the Humble King

Lord, revive your Church to welcome the King who comes in humility. Tear down our pride, cure our love of spectacle, and make us quick to bow before Jesus. Let your people receive his rule with joy and obedience, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Revive Your Church to Welcome the King

Father, thank you that your King comes near in gentleness and not in arrogance. Thank you that he draws close to your people and invites them to receive him. Teach us gratitude for such a kind reign, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Thank You for Coming Near

Pray by naming one place where you resist Jesus' humble rule. Ask God to soften your pride, help you trust his way, and show you one simple act of obedience today.

Pray for a Humble Heart

Bring these themes to God: humility before Jesus; the willingness to welcome him without demanding spectacle; a quiet, obedient heart; and trust that his nearness is good.

Welcoming the Humble King

Pray for leaders, for your family, for your church, and for yourself: that power would become service, pride would give way to humility, and Jesus' gentle way would shape every decision.

For Leaders and the Proud
