Proverbs 20 : 2-11
KJV


2 The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion:
whoso provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own soul.
3 It is an honour for a man to cease from strife:
but every fool will be meddling.
4 The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold;
therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.
5 Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water;
but a man of understanding will draw it out.
6 Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness:
but a faithful man who can find?
7 The just man walketh in his integrity:
his children are blessed after him.
8 A king that sitteth in the throne of judgment
scattereth away all evil with his eyes.
9 Who can say, I have made my heart clean,
I am pure from my sin?
10 Divers weights, and divers measures,
both of them are alike abomination to the Lord.
11 Even a child is known by his doings,
whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.
   


Today's Prayer...


Lord God,

We thank You for giving us light here on earth,
where it is so often completely dark.
But in the darkness the name of Jesus Christ shines
out as the prophetic Word:
“Be comforted. After darkness comes light, after night comes day!”
We thank You for this light. In joy we thank You,
for we have experienced that Jesus lives and comes
to meet each one, bringing victory over enemy powers.
In the name of Jesus Christ and in His name alone we ask You
to remember the needs of our time.
We do not want anything that comes from ourselves.
We do not want any earthly peace. We want Your peace,
Lord God,
the peace in which everything becomes new,
born anew even in suffering, to the eternal glory of Your name.


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

Amen
