“1 I rejoiced with those who said to me, “Let us go to the house of the LORD.” 2 Our feet are standing in your gates, Jerusalem. 3 Jerusalem is built like a city that is closely compacted together. 4 That is where the tribes go up—the tribes of the LORD— to praise the name of the LORD according to the statute given to Israel. 5 There stand the thrones for judgment, the thrones of the house of David. 6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May those who love you be secure.7 May there be peace within your walls and security within your citadels.” 8 For the sake of my family and friends, I will say, “Peace be within you.” 9 For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your prosperity.”
Prayer
We have gathered in Your house this evening, Father. We are pilgrims worshipping You with one another, as You have told us to do. We pray for the shalom of each person in this group and each member of their families. We pray for shalom of our communities. We pray for the shalom of our country. We pray for the shalom of Jerusalem and for this world that You have created. May we seek the shalom of one another, through your Spirit. In the Name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus. Amen.
