Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Three in One
Reading : MATTHEW chapter 4 verses 5-7
Meditation : consider all that is said here as your day starts.
Jesus is Tempted – again. In the desert.
Jesus overcomes the Devil – again.
What is your response to God’s written Word today?
Then turn to pray to God in response
Looking at verse 7
O LORD our God,
Thank you for all these words
And all they teach me about who you are.
Receive my sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving
And help me keep my eyes upward this day
In Jesus’ name, Amen
Midday
Pray God’s blessing on those on your own prayer list
O LORD, give help and hear our prayers we ask this day.
Evening
Reading : read this passage again from MATTHEW chapter 4 verses 5-7
Reflect on the words you have read and then pray in response – to this God, our God
LORD God, our God,
God who deserves our thanks
Hear the evening prayers of your people
For we are indeed in need of rescue from this world
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
