Lord God Almighty, who reigns in true wisdom and immeasurable love, keep us from fighting for the things of this world, that we would value what you value and trust in the goodness of your ways and the final triumph of your kingdom and culture, through Christ our redeemer, who lives with you and the Holy Spirit in perfect unity and joy, forever and ever. Amen.
‘Jesus answered, “My kingdom does not belong to this world. If my kingdom belonged to this world, my followers would be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jews. But as it is, my kingdom is not from here.”‘ – John 18:36
