Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Father God

Reading : AMOS 7 verses 1-9

Meditation : take time and consider what is said here – as your day starts.
Locusts, fire and a plumbline!!
How would you describe Israel’s relationship with the LORD God?
How would you describe your relationship with Him today?

And then pray in response as your day starts

(Pray your own words to the LORD God
In worship and thanks for what you have read,
In confession and need to be more like Jesus,
And for others known to you at this time in a hard place.)

O LORD of justice and mercy,
Receive our morning praise and hear our prayers.
We ask in Jesus’ name.
Amen.

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on the leaders and government of Australia
O LORD, hear our prayers and pour out a blessing we ask on each and all

Evening
Reading : read the verses again from Amos 7
Reflect on these words again at the end of your day
and Pray in response to this God of ours, the God of Israel
O LORD God, hear our evening prayers as we thank You for Your call on our lives.
Oh have mercy we ask
On others
On our Church
On our world
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Three in One

Reading : AMOS 5 verses 1-17

Meditation : consider all that is said here as your day starts.
A call to repentance.
How would you describe God’s relationship with His people?
What is your response to God’s written Word today?

Then turn to pray to God in response….looking again at verses 14 and 15

O LORD our God,
Thank you for all these words
And all they teach me.
May we be a people
Who ever seek good and not evil.
Oh teach us to maintain justice
In our lives
In our community
In our world
In Jesus’ name, Amen

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on the Church in Australia
O LORD, have mercy and hear our prayers we ask this day.

Evening
Reading : read this passage again from Amos 5
Reflect on the words you have read and then pray in response – to this God, our God
LORD God, our God, God of true justice, hear the evening prayers of your people
For we are indeed in need of rescue from this world
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
