Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Father God

Reading : ISAIAH chapter 8

Meditation : take time and consider what is said here about Assyria and about fearing God.
What is God saying to you today from His Word?
What encourages and challenges you?

And then pray in response as your day starts

(Pray your own words to the LORD God
In worship and thanks for what you have read,
In confession and need to be more like Jesus,
And for others known to you at this time in a place of need)

O LORD God of blessing and of judgment,
receive our morning praise and hear our prayers.
We ask in Jesus’ name.
Amen.

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on the Church in our city at this time
O LORD, hear our prayers and give grace and peace we ask.

Evening
Reading : read the verses again from Isaiah 8
Reflect on these verses at the end of your day
and Pray in response to this God of ours
O LORD God, hear our evening prayers
as we thank You for every blessing you give in Christ Jesus.
in Jesus’ name we pray together, Amen.

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Three in One

Reading : ISAIAH chapter 6

Meditation : consider what happens here to Isaiah!
Imagine him and the scene described here.
How would you describe his relationship with God?
How would you describe your relationship with Him at this time?

Then pray in response….to this God of pure holiness

O LORD our God,
Holy, Holy, Holy.
Thank you for these words
And all they teach me.
May we be a people
Who ever seek You
Above all others.
Even today we ask
Make Your Presence known!
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on Andy and Nyree Chittick and their family
O LORD, pour out a family blessing and hear our prayers we ask.

Evening
Reading : read this set passage again
Reflect on the words you have read and then pray in response – to our Holy God
Holy LORD God, our God, hear the evening prayers of your people
For we are indeed jars of clay
And You are so Other, true and pure.
In Jesus’ name we can but come to You. Amen.
