Daily Devotions for 1st January, 2019

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Father God
Reading : GENESIS 1 verses 26-31

Meditation : consider all that happens here and all that God says… at the start of your day.
Why was God so pleased? What is God saying to you from His Word today?

And then Pray in response to what you have read
Taking time to wait before God
Asking Him what pleases Him – or not – in your life at this time

In Jesus’ name.
Amen.

Midday
Take time to listen for God to speak with you at this time of day
…..and respond to His voice….
Father God…thank you.

Evening
Reading : read the verses again from Genesis 1
Reflect prayerfully on these words…. And then pray as your day closes
LORD God, our Creator God,
For all of your creation I have seen today
I thank You,
Even for those things that have caused me fear and concern.
Help me to rest in Your unfailing love and on Your faithful Word
As I wait for tomorrow.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Journeying with God in the Daily Devotions

As we journey from 2018 into 2019 you are invited to join us on our daily pilgrimage with our God.

During 2019 we will be looking at various Bible characters and their relationship with God, and with each other – as well as a couple of Psalms each weekend – pausing in prayer at our times of Midday Devotion for others in our church family, our city and our world at this time of the year.

** There will be a call to Midday Prayer and Evening Prayer at various times during the week as we travel through the year. We started this during Advent and many have responded and been encouraged to pause and pray briefly at these times with others. **

We are all encouraged to listen for God’s voice and make our response as we start together in our ‘rhythm of devotion’ during 2019….will you join with us?
