Daily Devotions for Saturday April 11th, 2020

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

Reading : HEBREWS 10 verses 1-18

Meditation : take time to consider these verses this morning.
Christ’s sacrifice once for all
What do they mean for you?
What is God saying to you today from these words?

And then Pray in response to what you read – to this God of ours.

In Jesus’ name
Amen and Amen!

Midday
Pray the Prayer for the Month as your midday prayer

Father,
As we reflect on the promises and prophecies in your Word,
we pray that you will give us wisdom and understanding
to see the relevance of these and apply them in our times.
Thank you that all these promises and prophesies are fulfilled in Christ Jesus,
our High Priest, who ever intercedes for us.
Amen.

Evening
Reading : read this passage again from Hebrews 10
Reflect on this God, your God, our God…. and then Praise Him in your evening Prayer

LORD God, our God, receive our praise
For who You are!
For all you have done for us!
And as we give it all back to you
May you continue to reach and save people
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done across our world
In these days
In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Good Friday at 3pm

We would normally be gathering with many others at this time on Good Friday to pause and remember Jesus on the Cross

You are invited to pause just now where you are

You are invited to follow the song links below….to prayerfully read through the passage….to ponder the images…to pray for and with others in our community.

To remember Jesus

There is a green hill far away

Romans 5 New International Version (NIV)
Peace and Hope

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him! For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

My song is love unknown
