Psalm 34:16 - 22


16 The face of the Lord is against them that do evil,
to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 The righteous cry,
and the Lord heareth,
and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
18 The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart;
and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous:
but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.
20 He keepeth all his bones:
not one of them is broken.
21 Evil shall slay the wicked:
and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
22 The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants:
and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.



Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

We come to you.
With thanks we come to you,
for again and again you have helped us.
Again and again you have let your light shine out on us
so that we could be glad and know that our lives are in your hands.
Protect us on this earth, where it is so necessary.
Protect us, that the light of true life may shine more and more brightly
and we may praise your name with our whole heart.
Be with us this night,
O God,
and touch our hearts with your Spirit.


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

Ezra 8:30 - 36


30 So took the priests and the Levites
the weight of the silver,
and the gold, and the vessels,
to bring them to Jerusalem unto the house of our God.
31 Then we departed from the river of Ahava on the
twelfth day of the first month, to go unto Jerusalem:
and the hand of our God was upon us,
and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy,
and of such as lay in wait by the way.
32 And we came to Jerusalem,
and abode there three days.
33 Now on the fourth day was the silver and the gold
and the vessels weighed in the house of
our God by the hand of Meremoth
the son of Uriah the priest;
and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinehas;
and with them was Jozabad the son of Jeshua,
and Noadiah the son of Binnui, Levites;
34 By number and by weight of every one:
and all the weight was written at that time.
35 Also the children of those that had been carried away,
which were come out of the captivity,
offered burnt offerings unto the God of Israel,
twelve bullocks for all Israel,
ninety and six rams,
seventy and seven lambs,
twelve he goats for a sin offering:
all this was a burnt offering unto the Lord.
36 And they delivered the king's commissions
unto the king's lieutenants,
and to the governors on this side the river:
and they furthered the people,
and the house of God.



Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

We ask you from our hearts to give us your peace.
Grant that nothing may take your peace from us,
and protect us from all that is evil.
May we always be mindful that we should serve you in self-denial.
May we be faithful on all our ways,
looking to the great promise you have given each one of us.
Keep us under your protection,
as you have always done.
We praise and thank you for all that comes to our hearts from you,
making us full of trust and certain of your further help.


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

Amen

The peace that surpasseth understanding...In Jesus precious name, Amen and Amen.

Philemon 1:18 - 25


18 If he hath wronged thee,
or oweth thee ought,
put that on mine account;
19 I Paul have written it with mine own hand,
I will repay it:
albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me
even thine own self besides.
20 Yea, brother,
let me have joy of thee in the Lord:
refresh my bowels in the Lord.
21 Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee,
knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.
22 But withal prepare me also a lodging:
for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.
23 There salute thee Epaphras,
my fellowprisoner in Christ Jesus;
24 Marcus,
Aristarchus,
Demas,
Lucas,
my fellowlabourers.
25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
Amen.




Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

You have sent us the Lord Jesus to bear our guilt and our misery.
To this day we rejoice that he came,
he who can free us from all evil.
Teach us to understand the way of the Cross,
the way Jesus went.
Grant that we may always follow him,
even if we also suffer and have a cross to bear.
Then we can joyfully go the way he went to the glory of your name,
O Father in heaven.
We are your children whether we understand it or not.
You protect and care for us,
until your glory comes and everything is completed that was
begun through Jesus Christ,
the Savior of the world.
Bless us in his Word,
and help us to become his true followers.



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

Amen

In Jesus name, amen and amen.

Ecclesiastes 5:1 - 7


1 Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God,
and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools:
for they consider not that they do evil.
2 Be not rash with thy mouth,
and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God:
for God is in heaven,
and thou upon earth:
therefore let thy words be few.
3 For a dream cometh through the multitude of business;
and a fool's voice is known by multitude of words.
4 When thou vowest a vow unto God,
defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools:
pay that which thou hast vowed.
5 Better is it that thou shouldest not vow,
than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.
6 Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin;
neither say thou before the angel,
that it was an error:
wherefore should God be angry at thy voice,
and destroy the work of thine hands?
7 For in the multitude of dreams and many words there are
also divers vanities:
but fear thou God.




Today's Prayer...


Lord, our God and Father,

We thank you for letting us walk in the way of Jesus Christ,
for helping us on the way to the Cross.
Come what may, we belong to the Savior,
and we are your children.
We want to be joyful and full of faith,
full of hope,
full of patience,
for your mercy leads us on.
In all we experience how often we can say,
“Thanks be to God. He has helped us here,
he has helped there,
he helps every day in spite of all the evil in the world.
Praise and thanks and honor be to him forever!”



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

Colossians 4:5-6


1 Masters,
give unto your servants that which is just and equal;
knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven.
2 Continue in prayer,
and watch in the same with thanksgiving;
3 Withal praying also for us,
that God would open unto us a door of utterance,
to speak the mystery of Christ,
for which I am also in bonds:
4 That I may make it manifest,
as I ought to speak.
5 Walk in wisdom toward them that are without,
redeeming the time.
6 Let your speech be always with grace,
seasoned with salt,
that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.
7 All my state shall Tychicus declare unto you,
who is a beloved brother,
and a faithful minister and fellowservant in the Lord:
8 Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose,
that he might know your estate,
and comfort your hearts;
9 With Onesimus,
a faithful and beloved brother,
who is one of you.
They shall make known unto you all things which are done here.



Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

We come to you as a little flock,
asking you to accept us and keep us as your own,
whom you will redeem in your time.
Protect us always so that we remain strong in faith.
Strengthen us in the faith that you are with us,
helping us.
Grant that your people may come to the light,
to the honor of your name.
So we entrust ourselves to your hands this night.
Be with us,
Lord our God,
through your Spirit.



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

1 Chronicles 29:13 - 20


13 Now therefore,
our God,
we thank thee,
and praise thy glorious name.
14 But who am I,
and what is my people,
that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort?
for all things come of thee,
and of thine own have we given thee.
15 For we are strangers before thee,
and sojourners,
as were all our fathers:
our days on the earth are as a shadow,
and there is none abiding.
16 O Lord our God,
all this store that we have prepared to build thee an house
for thine holy name cometh of thine hand,
and is all thine own.
17 I know also,
my God,
that thou triest the heart,
and hast pleasure in uprightness.
As for me,
in the uprightness of mine heart I have willingly offered all these things:
and now have I seen with joy thy people,
which are present here,
to offer willingly unto thee.
18 O Lord God of Abraham,
Isaac,
and of Israel,
our fathers,
keep this for ever in the imagination of the thoughts
of the heart of thy people,
and prepare their heart unto thee:
19 And give unto Solomon my son a perfect heart,
to keep thy commandments,
thy testimonies,
and thy statutes,
and to do all these things,
and to build the palace,
for the which I have made provision.
20 And David said to all the congregation,
Now bless the Lord your God.
And all the congregation blessed the Lord God of their fathers,
and bowed down their heads,
and worshipped the Lord,
and the king.



Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

You are our help and our comfort.
We look to you and to your promises.
Grant that we may remain full of courage,
also in our personal concerns,
so that we do not complain like fretful children,
but cheerfully wait for your great victory on earth.
May we become your people.
Grant your Spirit to your people,
not only to a few but eventually to many.
Lord our God,
we pray that your will may be done on earth among the nations;
may your will be done on earth as it is done in heaven.



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

Amen

[Charon]

May Your Will be done. And know our names, Lord in Jesus precious name, Amen and Amen.
