Daily Devotions for 10th April, 2019

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

Reading : 1 SAMUEL chapter 17

Meditation : consider all that happens here!!
How would you describe David’s relationship with God?
Is there a Goliath in your life at this time?

Then pray in response….to our God
The LORD God
Greater than any Goliath

O LORD our God,
Thank you for all these words
And all they teach me.
May we be a people
Who ever believe and trust in you
And who see Goliaths defeated
Even today.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on John and Lindsay
O LORD, God of rich blessings, hear our prayers we ask.

Evening
Reading : read this passage again
Reflect on the words you have read and then pray in response – to our Mighty God
LORD God, our God, hear the evening prayers of your people
For we are indeed small in ourselves
But you are a Great Big God!
In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Tuesday Rhythm of Devotion

As a church we practice a varied rhythm of devotion.

We follow a programme of Daily Devotions to encourage our personal pilgrimage of faith.
We are encouraged to visit the Upper Room each Tuesday – a place with space for time out with God.
We are called to Monthly Prayer together as a Church Family on the last Tuesday evening of each month.

This Tuesday the Upper Room will be open 8am-4pm.
Times of prayer together at 12noon-12.30pm and 2.45-3.45pm.

Next Tuesday the Kirk will be open 7.30am-7.30pm for One Friday Upper Room in the Kirk.

Tuesday 30th will see the next Gathering for Prayer 7.30-8.45pm when we will focus on Stewarding and Finances in our spoken and unspoken prayers together.

You are invited to be part of this rhythm of devotion at Liberton Kirk.
