1 Corinthians 15 : 16-24
KJV

16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:
17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain;
ye are yet in your sins.
18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.
19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ,
we are of all men most miserable.
20 But now is Christ risen from the dead,
and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
21 For since by man came death,
by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
22 For as in Adam all die,
even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
23 But every man in his own order:
Christ the firstfruits;
afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
24 Then cometh the end,
when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God,
even the Father;
when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
   

Today's Prayer...


Our dear Father,

We ask You to come to us from heaven
and surround us with Your goodness and mercy,
with Your light and life.
We are weak, poor, and lost just
when we need to stand firm and hold on.
But You are faithful.
You stay by us and help us.
Continue to help and sustain us, we pray.
Do not let our lives be lived in vain.
May something of eternity be with us in all we have to face in life,
so that over and over again we may find courage to start anew.


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

Amen

[Charon]

We are weak, poor, and lost just
when we need to stand firm and hold on.
But You are faithful.
You stay by us and help us.

Hallelujah!! In Jesus precious name we pray, Amen and Amen.

Proverbs 10 : 24-32
KJV

24 The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him:
but the desire of the righteous shall be granted.
25 As the whirlwind passeth, so is the wicked no more:
but the righteous is an everlasting foundation.
26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes,
so is the sluggard to them that send him.
27 The fear of the Lord prolongeth days:
but the years of the wicked shall be shortened.
28 The hope of the righteous shall be gladness:
but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.
29 The way of the Lord is strength to the upright:
but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.
30 The righteous shall never be removed:
but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth.
31 The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom:
but the froward tongue shall be cut out.
32 The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable:
but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness.
   

Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

You let us see and feel Your great goodness toward us.
Grant us the inner help to be victorious in the Savior,
rejoicing to be by His side with faith and loyalty,
and with the strength of soul that frees us from all burdens
by laying them in your hands.
Hear us as together we pray to You.
All we ask and long for, all our concerns down to the very smallest,
we lay in Your hands in the one great request
that Your name be glorified on earth as it is in heaven.


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

Amen

[Charon]

In Jesus precious name, Amen and Amen.

James 4 : 1-7
KJV

1From whence come wars and fightings among you?
come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?
2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain:
ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.
3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss,
that ye may consume it upon your lusts.
4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses,
know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God?
whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
5 Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain,
The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?
6 But he giveth more grace.
Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud,
but giveth grace unto the humble.
7 Submit yourselves therefore to God.
Resist the devil,
and he will flee from you.
   

Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

Give us childlike hearts so that we may understand

because we want to work with the understanding given by love.
Father in heaven,
You know that we are faced day and night with many
difficulties and setbacks.
But You see us,
and You will help us so that Your name may be honored,
Your kingdom may come,
and Your will may be done on earth as in heaven.


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

Philippians 4 : 15-23
KJV

15 Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel,
when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as
concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.
16 For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.
17 Not because I desire a gift:
but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.
18 But I have all, and abound: I am full,
having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you,
an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable,
well pleasing to God.
19 But my God shall supply all your need according
to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
20 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
21 Salute every saint in Christ Jesus.
The brethren which are with me greet you.
22 All the saints salute you,
chiefly they that are of Caesar's household.
23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
Amen.
   

Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

We come into Your presence and kneel before Your throne,
asking You with all our hearts for Your Spirit,
so that our lives may be guided and ruled by You,
the one God and Creator of all life.
Let Your Word come into our hearts.
Give Your blessing on all we experience in life and on all
we ask of You as we stand before you.
We are weak and poor.
We can achieve nothing,
and our hearts are weary.
But you can strengthen us.
You can make everything come right to reveal Your
kingdom throughout the world.
Then all the people of our time may come to know that
Your will for the earth is not distress and suffering,
but Your goodness, Your life, and Your eternity.


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

Amen

[Charon]

Then all the people of our time may come to know that
Your will for the earth is not distress and suffering,
but Your goodness, Your life, and Your eternity.

Praise God. In Jesus precious name, Amen and Amen.

Psalm 34 : 1-10
KJV

1 I will bless the Lord at all times:
his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 My soul shall make her boast in the Lord:
the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
3 O magnify the Lord with me,
and let us exalt his name together.
4 I sought the Lord, and he heard me,
and delivered me from all my fears.
5 They looked unto him, and were lightened:
and their faces were not ashamed.
6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him,
and saved him out of all his troubles.
7 The angel of the Lord encampeth round about
them that fear him, and delivereth them.
8 O taste and see that the Lord is good:
blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
9 O fear the Lord, ye his saints:
for there is no want to them that fear him.
10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger:
but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing.
   

Today's Prayer...


Lord God,

Send Your Spirit, we pray,
over us and over the whole world.
Let Your light dawn on earth among humankind.
Reveal Your power and let Your reign begin.
May Your will be done, O Lord.
We kneel before Your throne and plead to You.
We are weak. Lord, help us. Bless us.
Establish Your kingdom in the hearts of those who are
willing to follow You,
who are willing to accept Your grace in Jesus Christ.
Help us through Your strength.
Reign over us.
Be with us with Your Holy Spirit,
O Lord God, our Father.
