With his last breath in Luke’s gospel, Jesus prays to God for deliverance from his enemies using words from Psalm 31. Make your own prayers of petition, then pray the following verses from this psalm.
LEADER: In you, O Holy One, I seek refuge; let me never be put to shame.
ALL: Be a rock of refuge for me, a strong fortress to save me.
LEADER: Take me out of the net which lies in wait for me, for you are my refuge.
ALL: Into your hand I send my spirit; you have redeemed me, O faithful God.
