Daily Devotions for Wednesday 22nd September, 2021

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

Reading : ROMANS 8 verses 18-27

Meditation : As we pause with God we take time to consider what these verses teach us.

In the same way the Spirit also comes to help us, weak as we are. For we do not know how we ought to pray; the Spirit himself pleads with God for us in groans that words cannot express. And God, who sees into our hearts, knows what the thought of the Spirit is; because the Spirit pleads with God on behalf of his people and in accordance with his will.

Then take the time to Pray to this God, the Holy Spirit

Pause with Him – the Three-in-One
Rejoice He is with you where you are!
Ask Him for….
Yield to keep in step with Him today

In Jesus’ Name
Amen


Midday

Pray God’s blessing on our Prayer Ministry Team as they serve us and our community
O LORD God, have mercy on each and all and hear our prayers this day.

Evening

Reading : read these verses again from ROMANS 8
Reflect on the words…. And then pray to this God we believe and trust in

Pause with Him as your day closes
Rejoice He was with you today
Ask Him for another
Yield to keep in step with Him tomorrow

In Jesus’ Name
Amen
