Daily Devotions for Saturday 29th June, 2024
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit
Reading : PSALM 84
Prayerfully consider these words
Which ones stay with you as your day starts?
And then take time to Pray in response to this God, our God
Resting in Him
O LORD our God
Hear our prayers this morning
Amen we pray together this new day.
Midday
Pray the Lord’s Prayer as your own 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 the verses again from PSALM 84
Reflect on the truths behind the words…. and then Pray in response to what you have read
For yourself and for others in need of rest and peace
Examine me, O God, and know my mind;
test me, and discover my thoughts.
Find out if there is any evil in me
and guide me in the everlasting way
As I rest in you, my LORD God
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Daily Devotions for JULY 2024
Do not despise the Lord’s discipline, and do not resent his rebuke,
because the Lord disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in.
Proverbs 3 verses 11 and 12
In 2024 we are considering BEFORE THE GOOD NEWS – GOD’S PLAN BEGINS – as we step back into the Old Testament and pausing at our times of Midday Devotion to pray for others in our church family, our city and our world.
In July we continue our journey with a few Psalms and the book of Proverbs.
We are all invited to listen for God’s voice and make our response as we journey together in our ‘rhythm of devotion’ in 2024.
These Devotions are but one way to feed on God’s Word in the morning, at midday, in the evening… to pray with Him continually through the day and even to share with others the treasures or hurdles you discover.
The Church website and Facebook page (even on a handy mobile) provide a fuller daily devotional page. However it all follows the pattern below which the information provided fits into, based on the Kirk’s origins of the Celtic and Northumbrian traditions which we started as a church family in 2015.

For we do believe and trust in You
