2 Corinthians 5 : 14-21
KJV


14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge,
that if one died for all, then were all dead:
15 And that he died for all,
that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves,
but unto him which died for them, and rose again.
16 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea,
though we have known Christ after the flesh,
yet now henceforth know we him no more.
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ,
he is a new creature: old things are passed away;
behold, all things are become new.
18 And all things are of God,
who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ,
and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
19 To wit, that God was in Christ,
reconciling the world unto himself,
not imputing their trespasses unto them;
and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ,
as though God did beseech you by us:
we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
21 For he hath made him to be sin for us,
who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.



Today's Prayer...


Lord God,

We thank You for all You reveal in Your creation
so that our lives may be fruitful.
Reveal Your wisdom and strength among people everywhere
so that death and destruction do not have their way,
but Your will, Your love, Your mercy shall prevail.
Let our age learn that power belongs to You and not to men,
and that You will at last fulfill all Your promises of good.
Your day of justice and holiness will break in,
and all misery will be removed through Your great mercy.
Watch over us as You have done till this hour,
and keep us safe during the night.
Be present and carry out Your will wherever there is misfortune.
May Your will be done on earth as in heaven.


In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
