Upper Room day – time out with God
Pray for Summer Buzz on TV this week!
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Father God
Reading : PSALM 94 verse 14
Meditation : consider what is said here… at the start of your day.
What is God teaching you?
How is He encouraging you as you step into today?
And then Pray in response to what you have read
Taking time to wait before God
In Jesus’ name.
Amen.
Midday
Take time to listen for God to speak with you at this time of day
…..and respond to His voice….
Father God…thank you for what you are saying to us at this time
Evening
Reading : read the words again from PSALM 94.14
Reflect prayerfully on these words…. And then pray as your day closes
LORD God, our great God,
For all of today
I thank You,
Even for those things that have caused me fear and concern.
Help me to rest in Your unfailing love and on Your faithful Word
As I wait for tomorrow.
As I look around at this world
In these days.
Have mercy O Lord!
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Call to Monday Midday Prayer
It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
to sing praises to the Most High.
It is good to proclaim your unfailing love in the morning,
your faithfulness in the evening,
accompanied by a ten-stringed instrument, a harp,
and the melody of a lyre.
You thrill me, Lord, with all you have done for me!
I sing for joy because of what you have done.
Together we say Amen and Amen!
Words from this morning’s Daily Devotions – Psalm 92
August Rhythm of Time Out
As a Church we set aside a Tuesday each week and provided a place with space – the UPPER ROOM – a place for time-out. However in these times sadly it is not possible to open and run this space….for now….
But…..our Tuesdays – and every day – can still be an opportunity for time out…..with God…..where we are at home or work
You are invited to pause regularly at some time during AUGUST and be still with God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
You are encouraged to speak with Him….to listen to Him.…to receive from Him…especially at this time as we seek to hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church in our times.
You are encouraged to visit the PATHWAY of PEACE around the Kirkyard which is open 8am-8pm during August and visit the prayer stations as you walk and think and reflect and pray in these days.
You are encouraged to journey onwards and upwards with your rhythm of prayer and devotion – on your own and with others.
You are invited to share in the Midday Prayers and Evening Prayers that will be posted online at 12noon and 9pm on various days on the Kirk website and on our social media pages. We are also encouraged to pray with others in our city and across our land at 5pm….focussing on all those affected by the coronavirus.
You are invited to pray with others in our Church family as we journey through this week together…..and to listen for what God is saying to us in these particular days of 2020.
