Daily Devotions for Monday 2nd January, 2023

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit

Reading : MATTHEW chapter 3 verses 13-17

Meditation : take the time to consider this passage today.
The Baptism of Jesus.
What words or images stay with you?
What is God saying to you this morning?
What is your response to God’s Word today?
Is there a step of discipleship He is asking of you?

Pray in response – to our God , the God who is with us

Pray your own words at the start of this day
Of praise and worship
Of confession and trust
Of need – for yourself and others

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Midday
Pray God’s blessings on those on your personal prayer list
O LORD, have mercy on each and all we ask

Evening
Reading : read the passage again prayerfully at the end of your day
Reflect….. and then pray to God in response

LORD God, the LORD Almighty, hear my prayer this evening.
As I thank you for the blessings of this day
As I call out to you for others
As I lay myself and this world before you
Confessing my failures of this day
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
