Proverbs 17 : 11 - 17
11 An evil man seeketh only rebellion:
therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.
12 Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man,
rather than a fool in his folly.
13 Whoso rewardeth evil for good,
evil shall not depart from his house.
14 The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water:
therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled with.
15 He that justifieth the wicked,
and he that condemneth the just,
even they both are abomination to the Lord.
16 Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom,
seeing he hath no heart to it?
17 A friend loveth at all times,
and a brother is born for adversity.
Today's Prayer...
Dear Father in heaven,
Grant that we may come to you as your children.
Grant that we may come to your Spirit,
that something of trust and perseverance may be born
in us for our life on earth.
May we always be loyal and full of hope,
working and striving not only for what is earthly,
but for the tasks that have been laid on us for your kingdom
and its righteousness.
Let new light shine out among us again and again.
Let many understand when your voice is speaking to them,
so that they may gain courage.
Let your voice be heard so that the great gospel
that makes us your children may be
proclaimed to people of all circles.
In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name
Amen

2 Thessalonians 3 : 12 - 18
12 Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ,
that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.
13 But ye, brethren,
be not weary in well doing.
14 And if any man obey not our word by this epistle,
note that man,
and have no company with him,
that he may be ashamed.
15 Yet count him not as an enemy,
but admonish him as a brother.
16 Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means.
The Lord be with you all.
17 The salutation of Paul with mine own hand,
which is the token in every epistle:
so I write.
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
Amen.
Today's Prayer...
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.
In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name
Amen

2 Corinthians 6 : 1 - 10
1 We then, as workers together with him,
beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.
2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted,
and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee:
behold, now is the accepted time;
behold, now is the day of salvation.)
3 Giving no offence in any thing,
that the ministry be not blamed:
4 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God,
in much patience,
in afflictions,
in necessities,
in distresses,
5 In stripes,
in imprisonments,
in tumults,
in labours,
in watchings,
in fastings;
6 By pureness,
by knowledge,
by long suffering,
by kindness,
by the Holy Ghost,
by love unfeigned,
7 By the word of truth,
by the power of God,
by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
8 By honour and dishonour,
by evil report and good report:
as deceivers,
and yet true;
9 As unknown,
and yet well known;
as dying, and,
behold,
we live;
as chastened,
and not killed;
10 As sorrowful,
yet alway rejoicing;
as poor,
yet making many rich;
as having nothing,
and yet possessing all things.
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 118 : 23 - 29
23 This is the Lord's doing;
it is marvellous in our eyes.
24 This is the day which the Lord hath made;
we will rejoice and be glad in it.
25 Save now,
I beseech thee,
O Lord: O Lord,
I beseech thee,
send now prosperity.
26 Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the Lord:
we have blessed you out of the house of the Lord.
27 God is the Lord,
which hath shewed us light:
bind the sacrifice with cords,
even unto the horns of the altar.
28 Thou art my God,
and I will praise thee:
thou art my God,
I will exalt thee.
29 O give thanks unto the Lord;
for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
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

Titus 2 : 8 - 15
8 Sound speech, that cannot be condemned;
that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed,
having no evil thing to say of you.
9 Exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters,
and to please them well in all things;
not answering again;
10 Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity;
that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.
11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
12 Teaching us that,
denying ungodliness and worldly lusts,
we should live soberly,
righteously,
and godly,
in this present world;
13 Looking for that blessed hope,
and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
14 Who gave himself for us,
that he might redeem us from all iniquity,
and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
15 These things speak,
and exhort,
and rebuke with all authority.
Let no man despise thee.
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
Semper Fidelis
