Daily Devotions for Monday 23rd December, 2024

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit

Reading : JOHN 1 verses 19-28
Meditation : take time and consider this passage this Monday morning.
John’s message
Someone greater is coming

What words stay with you?
How do you respond to what John said?

Then Pray with your own words in response to this Jesus

In Jesus’ name, Amen

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on the SEECAT group of churches
God of grace and mercy and rich blessing, hear our prayers we ask.

Evening
Reading : read these verses again from JOHN 1 verses 19-28
Reflect on what you read and then pause to pray to our God in response

The LORD takes pleasure in his people;
he honours the humble with victory.
Let God’s people rejoice in their triumph
and sing joyfully all night long.

And so to you, O God, we bring our evening words of prayer
In Jesus’ name, Amen!

Sunday Evening Prayer with Others

As we step into a new week….. with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from JOHN 1 verses 1-18– as we journey in this season of Advent….

We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer as the day closes….

We REJOICE in the help and blessings He has given this particular Sunday – 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 – especially prayerfully supporting the people of Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, Ukraine, Russia, Yemen and other parts of our world in deep need at this time

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

Bible Verse for the Week and Sunday Morning Reflection

Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying:

be praise and honour and glory and power,
for ever and ever!”
