Prayer based on Exodus 33

Father God, You lead us through the wilderness by the means that You see fit. But Father, we earnestly request that You Yourself will surely be with us. You have chosen to work through means. You give us preachers and teachers of Your Word. You give us baptism and the supper Your Son instituted. You give us prayer together as Your people. Nonetheless Father, we need You. Please do not depart from Your church, or we are done. We will not be able to accomplish even one Kingdom purpose without you. We must have Your Son as our Leader. We need Your glorious Spirit as our Teacher. You are the Lord. Be gracious to us. Be merciful to us. We must have You. Hide us in Christ, our Rock, and use the means that You have provided. But we will not worship means. We will worship only You. You are God.
