Jesus-centered Intercessions
These congregational call-and-response supplications are based on Common Worship’s Eastertide prayers of the people.
Jesus, our exalted Lord, has been given all authority.
Let us seek His intercession
that our prayers may be perfected by His prayer.
Jesus, great high priest, living for ever to intercede for us:
Pray for the Church, Your broken body in the world.
Jesus, King of righteousness,
enthroned at the right hand of the Majesty on high:
Pray for the world, and make it subject to Your rule.
Jesus, Son of Man, drawing humanity into the life of God:
Pray for Your sisters and brothers in need, distress, or sorrow.
Jesus, pioneer of our salvation,
bringing us to glory through your death and resurrection:
Surround, with your saints and angels,
those who have died trusting your promises.
Jesus Christ:
Bring the whole created order to worship at your feet;
for you are alive and reign with the Father,
and the Holy Spirit; one God, now and for ever. Amen!
