Prayer for Luke 23:26

“As they led Him away, they seized Simon, a Cyrenian, who was coming in from the country, and laid the cross on him to carry behind Jesus.”

Praying through Luke 23:26

Heavenly Father, thank You for the life and witness of Simon of Cyrene and the simple ministry he performed for the Lord Jesus, when he took up the Cross of Christ on his shoulder and followed Him all the way to Calvary. I pray that in Your grace and strength, I would be a disciple who denies myself and is willing to die to self, to live for Christ alone, and to take up my cross and follow Him. Father, I know that Christ alone had to pay the price for my sin on that Cross of Calvary, but I pray that I may be willing to suffer persecution and loss for His dear sake. In Jesus' name I pray, AMEN.
