Prayer based on Luke 19:31. Themes: Obedience, Providence, Redemption.

Dear Lord, as I go about my day, may I always be ready to answer when someone asks me why I am doing something. Help me to respond with grace and truth, just as you did when you sent your disciples to retrieve the donkey for your triumphal entry. May I always be willing to serve you and your purposes, even if it means giving up something that I hold dear. Thank you for the privilege of being a part of your kingdom work. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Verse: If anyone asks you, ‘ Why are you untying it?’ say to him: ‘ The Lord needs it.’”
Luke 19:31

This is a Command. The reader is instructed to say to anyone who asks why they are untying something, “The Lord needs it.”
