As we journey through Lent – with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from ROMANS 2 verse – as we consider the Good News of Jesus
We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer
We REJOICE in the blessings He has given this day – to us and to others
We ASK for His presence, peace and strength – for ourselves and for others in our world at this time
We YIELD – say Yes – to His Kingdom ways for tomorrow
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit
Reading : ROMANS 2 verse 1
Meditation : take time to consider these words this morning.
Judging Others
And then Pray in response to what you read – to this God of ours.
Pray for God’s help today for yourself and for another
Ask God to bless someone you struggle to love at this time
In Jesus’ name
Amen and Amen
Midday
Pray the Lord’s Prayer as your midday prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be Your Name.
Your kingdom come
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our sins
As we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory.
Now and for ever
Amen
Evening
Reading : read ROMANS 2 verse 1 again
Reflect on this God, your God, our God…. and then Call on Him in your evening Prayer
Asking Him to bless others on your prayer list
LORD God, our God, receive our praise
For who You are
For your help and protection even today
And as we give it all back to you
May you continue to love and help others
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done across our world
In our community, in our city.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
As we journey through Lent – with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from LEVITICUS 25 verses 1-17 – as we consider the perfect sacrifice of Jesus
We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer
We REJOICE in the blessings He has given this day – to us and to others
We ASK for His presence, peace and strength – for ourselves and for others in our world at this time
We YIELD – say Yes – to His Kingdom ways for tomorrow

Build your Church, Lord
Make us strong, Lord
Make us salt and light in our land
And bring a blessing to those in need this
