Lord, these are the days when we require insight. We require Wisdom. I want to make clear that false religions are the cause of the division that exists in our culture today; it’s not only ideological or political; it’s also false religion. We are talking about hope, joy, and Peace, and everything feels so heightened because we live in a society where people are looking for these things outside of You.
We bless and honor your holy name for all your generosity and loving care to humanity, O LORD God Almighty, Father of angels and mortals. We thank you for creating us, keeping us safe, and showing us unwavering love throughout our lives. But most of all, we give you thanks for your immense love in the world’s redemption through the work of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are grateful that you saw us through to the start of another day in safety. Please ensure that today is free from sin and danger of every type. Through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer, we beseech you to keep us from everything that harms our body or Spirit and to grant us your forgiveness and Peace so that, freed from all our sins, we can serve you with calm hearts and minds and carry on in this manner till the end of our lives. Thank you, John Wesley.

Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing and dance. It is there for every one of you. Amen.
Peace be upon you, O angels who serve God, angels of the Most High—from the King who is above all other kings, the Holy One, Blessed is God. Come in Peace, O angels of Peace, angels of the Most High—from the King above all other kings, the Holy One, Blessed is God.

May their naive faith blossom into a firm faith, and their firm faith mature into complete certainty of faith. Have this final blessing bestowed on us all. May we have complete faith in God. May we never falter. May we experience “the peace of God which passeth all understanding” as we rest in the great Surety and High Priest of the New Covenant and find rest.
Give me peace of mind in You, O precious Jesus. Permit your powerful serenity to rule over me. O King of Peace and Gentleness, reign over me.
You are the wellspring of serenity and life, O God. Glory be your name for all eternity. We are aware that at this time of conflict, you are the one who shifts our thoughts to ones of peace. We pray that people at odds start talking to each other, that those who are friendly split up, and that countries look for peaceful solutions. Bolster our determination to live as witnesses to these realities.
Grant us wisdom that ends conflict, compassion that stifles enmity, and forgiveness that triumphs over retaliation. Give everyone the ability to follow your law of love.
All praise be to God in the heavens, and peace be restored on earth! O Jesus, our all-powerful Lord, appears from above.
Let the rain come and wash away the bitter hatreds cultivated over many generations, as well as the old grudges.” Allow the rain to erase the recollection of the pain and disregard. Then, let the sunshine and rainbows dance across the sky. Let the sun’s warmth restore our damaged spirits wherever they may be. Allow it to dispel the mist so we can see each other well and look past labels, accents, gender, and skin tone. Allow the sun’s warmth and brightness to dissolve our self-centeredness. For us to experience our neighbors’ happiness and sadness together. And may the sun’s light shine so brightly that we shall perceive everyone as a neighbor. Let the rain-fed ground bloom so that we are surrounded by beauty. And let the mountains instruct our souls to aim higher toward heaven.
Almighty God, who made peace through the blood of the cross in Jesus Christ and who through your prophets predicted a day when swords would be beaten into plowshares, pour out your Spirit on all people everywhere that we may be freed from hatred, hostility, and self-seeking and find our peace in your will. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, may you show us mercy and use us as agents of your peace so that your name is exalted, your kingdom comes, and your will is carried out on earth as it is in heaven.
Thy perfect peace Thou givest me, My ever-present Guide; Thy perfect peace thou leavest me – What can I ask beside?
