Prayer based on Luke 9:60. Themes: Kingdom, Priorities, Discipleship.

Dear Lord Jesus, help me to prioritize your Kingdom above all else. May I not be distracted by the things of this world, but instead focus on spreading your message of love and salvation. Give me the courage and strength to leave behind the things that hold me back and follow you wholeheartedly. Thank you for your guidance and grace. Amen.

Verse: But Jesus said to him,“Leave the dead to bury their own dead, but you go and announce God’s Kingdom.”
Luke 9:60

This is a Command. The reader is instructed to go and announce God’s Kingdom, rather than attending to earthly matters such as burying the dead.
