Tuesday Evening Prayer with Others

As we journey through this new week….. with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from LUKE chapter 2 verse 21– as we continue to consider the GOOD NEWS about Jesus through 2022 – on this Tuesday after CHRISTmas Day

We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer as the day closes

We REJOICE in the help and blessings He has given this particular Tuesday – to us and to others

We ASK for His presence, peace and strength – for ourselves and for others in our church family and our nation and in our world at this time

We YIELD – say Yes – to His Kingdom ways for tomorrow

Daily Devotions for Tuesday 27th December, 2022

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Jesus, Saviour and Lord

Reading : LUKE 2 verse 21

Meditation : take time and consider this one verse this morning.
Mary and Joseph name him Jesus.
What does the name of Jesus mean to you?

Pray in response to what you have read
Taking time to pause and listen for God’s answer to you

As I thank you O God for sending Jesus

What a Friend we have in Jesus

I call to the LORD for help;
I plead with him.
I bring him all my complaints;
I tell him all my troubles.

In Jesus’ name,
Amen.

Midday
Take time to listen for God to speak with you at this time of day
Ask, seek, knock….hear!
Father God…thank you.

Evening
Reading : read LUKE 2 verse 21 – in another version?
Reflect on the words…. and then Pray….to the LORD our God

As I thank you for sending Jesus
From heaven to earth

What a Friend we have in Jesus

I call to the LORD for help;
I plead with him.
I bring him all my complaints;
I tell him all my troubles.

In Jesus’ name.
Amen and Amen.

Sing a new song to the LORD;
