Daily Devotions for Wednesday 5th May, 2021

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Jesus

Reading : PSALM 82

Meditation : consider these particular words this morning.
‘Rise up, O God..’
What words and images stay with you?
What is God saying to you today about Himself as your day starts?
Is there a response God is asking of you?

And then pray in response – to this God of ours

O LORD our God,
God Most High,
We hear your call
We turn to you
Call us closer
In Jesus’ name,
Amen and amen!

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on those who feel helpless in our society
LORD, hear our prayers and give blessing real good we ask.

Evening
Reading : read these set verses again from PSALM 82
Humbly reflect on what you read and then pray in response –
for yourself, for others, for our world

LORD God, Father God, hear our many different prayers
As we thank you for your call on our lives
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
