Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit
Reading : REVELATION 2 verses 8-11
Meditation : take time to consider this part of the Bible.
The message to the Church in Smyrna.
What are you encouraged and challenged by?
Which part of the message stays with you?
And then Pray in response to what you read – to this God of ours.
In Jesus’ name
Amen and Amen!
Midday
Pray the Prayer for the Month as your midday prayer
Come, Holy Spirit, live in me and transform my life.
You are a most precious gift, the breath of the living God.
You bring certainty to my trembling uncertainties, focus to my disorientation.
You bring companionship in my loneliness, comfort in my sadness,
strength for my weakness, courage for my fearfulness, hope in my despair.
Come, Holy Spirit, live in me and transform my life.
You have the power to change my mundane into your special,
the power to lift my earthbound self to your glory,
the power to change my monochrome to glorious technicolour,
the power to make me, even me, your light in the world.
Come, Holy Spirit, live in me and transform my life.
Amen.
Evening
Reading : read this part of REVELATION 2 again
Reflect on this God, your God, our God…. and then Praise Him in your evening Prayer
LORD God, our God, receive our praise
For who You are!
For all you have done for us!
And as we give it all back to you
May you continue to reach and save people
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done across our world
In our community, in our city.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
