And let another take his office.

Romans 5 : 12-17
KJV


12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin;
and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
13 (For until the law sin was in the world:
but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses,
even over them that had not sinned after the 

similitude of Adam's transgression,
who is the figure of him that was to come.
15 But not as the offence, so also is the free gift.
For if through the offence of one many be dead,
much more the grace of God,
and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ,
hath abounded unto many.
16 And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift:
for the judgment was by one to condemnation,
but the free gift is of many offences unto justification.
17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by one;
much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the
gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)

Lord our God,

Protect us in Your Spirit.
Strengthen our hearts especially when we
often have to bear suffering,
that we may be steadfast in hope and may
again and again experience a day of salvation.
Protect us in every way.
Accept our praise and thanks,
and let our hearts rejoice in what You have
already done for us.
We want to discern Your ways more and more
so that we may please You as Your servants.

James 5 : 9-16
KJV


9 Grudge not one against another, brethren,
lest ye be condemned: behold, the judge standeth before the door.
10 Take, my brethren, the prophets,
who have spoken in the name of the Lord,
for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.
11 Behold, we count them happy which endure.
Ye have heard of the patience of Job,
and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful,
and of tender mercy.
12 But above all things, my brethren, swear not,
neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath:
but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation.
13 Is any among you afflicted?
let him pray. Is any merry?
let him sing psalms.
14 Is any sick among you?
let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him,
anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick,
and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins,
they shall be forgiven him.
16 Confess your faults one to another,
and pray one for another, that ye may be healed.
The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
   


Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

In quietness we come to you and ask you for your Spirit.
We ask this especially for the time of waiting still required
of us as we hope and strive for light to come into all hearts,
for light to shine where there is so much death.
We must not despair of our inner life even when life around
us rages as if it would suck us down into its
whirlpool with no way out.
But you will guard us.
Watch over us, we pray, also in hours of temptation,
so that we may remain under your care.
Watch over us so that we have hope and joy in you,
assured that your goal for us all is true life from above,
a life of resurrection.


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

Amen

Psalm 71 : 16-24
KJV


16 I will go in the strength of the Lord God:
I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.
17 O God, thou hast taught me from my youth:
and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.
18 Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O God,
forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation,
and thy power to every one that is to come.
19 Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high,
who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee!
20 Thou, which hast shewed me great and sore troubles,
shalt quicken me again,
and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
21 Thou shalt increase my greatness,
and comfort me on every side.
22 I will also praise thee with the psaltery,
even thy truth, O my God: unto thee will I sing with the harp,
O thou Holy One of Israel.
23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee;
and my soul, which thou hast redeemed.
24 My tongue also shall talk of thy
righteousness all the day long: for they are confounded,
for they are brought unto shame, that seek my hurt.
   


Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

Merciful God and almighty Father in heaven,
we beseech You, look upon us as Your children.
For in spite of everything,
all of us are allowed to be Your children and to
praise You for all the good You are doing and for
all You still want to do for us.
Hear our prayer as we come to You with particular concerns,
asking for Your will to be done in us,
for everything to be carried out according to Your good purpose,
that we may be joyful even in hard and serious times
and may hold fast to what You have promised.


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

Amen

John 16 : 25-33
KJV


25 These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs:
but the time cometh,
when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs,
but I shall shew you plainly of the Father.
26 At that day ye shall ask in my name:
and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:
27 For the Father himself loveth you,
because ye have loved me,
and have believed that I came out from God.
28 I came forth from the Father,
and am come into the world: again,
I leave the world, and go to the Father.
29 His disciples said unto him,
Lo, now speakest thou plainly,
and speakest no proverb.
30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things,
and needest not that any man should ask thee:
by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?
32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come,
that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own,
and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone,
because the Father is with me.
33 These things I have spoken unto you,
that in me ye might have peace.
In the world ye shall have tribulation:
but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
   


Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

We thank You with all our hearts
that You have given us Your living promise.
We thank You that again and again our faith
can receive a clearer vision through this promise.
For You have promised that at last the greatest
day of all will come,
will conquer the whole world, and bring salvation
to all people to the glory of Your name as Father
throughout all nations.
Strengthen us in every way,
especially when we are in need and distress.
Strengthen the sick and those who are tempted.
May they wait in expectation for fulfillment
of the promise,
and may they see help come.
May Your name, Lord God,
be honored among us.
May Your kingdom come and Your
will be done on earth as in heaven.


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

Amen
