Psalm 73:22-28


22 So foolish was I, and ignorant:
I was as a beast before thee.
23 Nevertheless I am continually with thee:
thou hast holden me by my right hand.
24 Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel,
and afterward receive me to glory.
25 Whom have I in heaven but thee?
and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
26 My flesh and my heart faileth:
but God is the strength of my heart,
and my portion for ever.
27 For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish:
thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee.
28 But it is good for me to draw near to God:
I have put my trust in the Lord God,
that I may declare all thy works.



Today's Prayer...


Lord God, our Father in heaven,

Our light and our life, in our longing to live by your Word we lift our eyes to you.
Let your Word come into our hearts. Let your Word help us to understand our lives
and our time, so that we can recognize your leading in everything and gather
courage every day in spite of our weakness, sins, and faults. We can still find joy,
for your kingdom is coming. We can feel that you are among us, however great
the anguish of these times. Let the light of Jesus Christ shine out;
let your Spirit of peace and grace come to all nations so that your will may be done.
Free people from all their confusion. Release them from their bondage.
Make them free for what is good, true, and eternal.
May your name be praised among us today and forevermore.


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

Amen

In the name of the Most Holy, we pray. In Jesus name. Amen and Amen.

2 Corinthians 4:11-18


11 For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake,
that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
13 We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written,
I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;
14 Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up
us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you.
15 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might
through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.
16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish,
yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment,
worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
18 While we look not at the things which are seen,
but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal;
but the things which are not seen are eternal.


Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

Dear Father in heaven, we come into your presence and ask you to
show yourself to us as the true, great, and almighty God, who can
shed light into our misery and change it all, letting us find reconciliation
and redemption in Jesus Christ. Protect and help us with your mighty hand.
Let every country and nation see your grace and see the victory over
all sin and injustice. Let your justice come on earth, and let peace fill
every heart and show in every life. May all that happens to us serve the good.
Help us always look to you, our Lord and God,
for you have power to rule everything and
to turn everything to its right purpose.


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

Amen

[Charon]

Father God in Jesus name, may all that happens to us, let it be for the good of your people. In Jesus name, Amen and Amen.

1 John 4:6-14


6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us;
he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth,
and the spirit of error.
7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God;
and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us,
because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world,
that we might live through him.
10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us,
and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
11 Beloved, if God so loved us,
we ought also to love one another.
12 No man hath seen God at any time.
If we love one another, God dwelleth in us,
and his love is perfected in us.
13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him,
and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.
14 And we have seen and do testify that the
Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.


Today's Prayer...


O Lord God,

We thank you for everything you allow us to see and hear.
May our hearts become awake and alive through all we receive
so that we await your final revelation and recognize your ultimate
will for all people, for all nations and races on earth.
Hear us in these days, for we know your kingdom is coming.
Your kingdom is before our eyes. Your Word, your help, is coming,
and in Jesus Christ light will dawn for all the world.
Praise and honor to you for all you do!
May we see it all before our eyes so that our expectation of
the last days is a living expectation, full of joy and blessing.
We want to wait in joy, in love,
and in longing for the day that is coming to your glory.


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

Amen

[Charon]

Praise and Honor for all You do. We await seeing more of your Glory. In Jesus name, Amen and Amen.

Matthew 5:1-12


1 And seeing the multitudes,
he went up into a mountain:
and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
2 And he opened his mouth,
and taught them, saying,
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit:
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are they that mourn:
for they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek:
for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness:
for they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful:
for they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart:
for they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers:
for they shall be called the children of God.
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake:
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you,
and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad:
for great is your reward in heaven:
for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.


Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

Whose might is over all the earth, we thank you for all the love you show us.
We also thank you for everything that seems hard, but which you change
into help and strength. We want to thank you in life and in death,
in joy and in sorrow, for you are the great and mighty God,
who calls us to life again and again, who leads us to fuller life.
You have given us great love in Jesus Christ, our Savior.
He shall always be before our eyes and remain in our hearts.
Through him we can cry out in joy,
"Abba, dear Father!"


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

Amen

[Charon]

Abba Father, I submit to you in Jesus precious name, Amen and Amen.

1 Corinthians 13:1-13


1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels,
and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries,
and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains,
and have not charity, I am nothing.
3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor,
and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind;
charity envieth not;
charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own,
is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity,
but rejoiceth in the truth;
7 Beareth all things,
believeth all things,
hopeth all things,
endureth all things.
8 Charity never faileth:
but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail;
whether there be tongues, they shall cease;
whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9 For we know in part,
and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect is come,
then that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child,
I spake as a child,
I understood as a child,
I thought as a child:
but when I became a man,
I put away childish things.
12 For now we see through a glass, darkly;
but then face to face: now I know in part;
but then shall I know even as also I am known.
13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity,
these three; but the greatest of these is charity.



Today's Prayer...


O Lord God,

In exultation our hearts go out to you and your revelation of heaven,
your revelation of the Spirit, who can fill our hearts so that we remain
steadfast throughout our earthly life. It is still dark on earth.
Sin and death hold sway, but we stand unafraid and seek repentance.
In spite of all our failures we look to you and know you are our Savior.
You send us Jesus Christ in your own glory.
The world will be filled with light. Everywhere on earth, even among
those who do not know you, the sincere-hearted will come to
acknowledge that you, the Father of Jesus Christ and our Father,
are God over all the world.
You will show your glory to all people so that they may come to you,
worship you, and walk in the light, to the everlasting glory of your name.


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

Amen
