Daily Devotions for Friday 22nd December, 2023

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Jesus

Reading : ISAIAH chapter 65 verses 1-16

Meditation : take time and consider all that is said here
Judgment
Salvation

What images or words stay with you?
What is God teaching/reminding you?

And then Pray with honest and humble words to this God of ours in response

Happy are those who have the God of Jacob to help them
and who depend on the LORD their God,
the Creator of heaven, earth, and sea,
and all that is in them.
He always keeps his promises;
He judges in favour of the oppressed
and gives food to the hungry

And so we ask our prayers, Holy Spirit,
Amen – we pray together.

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on those on our church Prayer List
Father God, hear our prayers and bless them all real good we ask

Evening
Reading : read this passage again from ISAIAH chapter 65 verses 1-16
Reflect on the words written here and pray in response to this God, our God

In Jesus’ name, Amen and Amen!
