Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit
Reading : MATTHEW 2 verses 19-23
Return from Egypt
Which words stay with you as your day starts?
And then take time to Pray in response to this God
Praying for families and communities divided over this Jesus
And for those journeying home after time with family
O LORD our God
Hear our cries this morning
Amen we pray together this new day.
Midday
Pray the Lord’s Prayer as your midday prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be Your Name.
Your kingdom come
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our sins
As we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory.
Now and for ever
Amen
Evening
Reading : read the verses again from MATTHEW 2 verses 19-23
Reflect on the truths behind the words…. and then Pray in response to what you have read
For yourself and for others divided over this Jesus
Examine me, O God, and know my mind;
test me, and discover my thoughts.
Find out if there is any evil in me
and guide me in the everlasting way
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
