Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Jesus

Jonah obeys!

And then pray in response – as your day starts
Naming others in a place of doubting and obeying at this time

Father God, hear our prayers and bless them all real good we ask

Reflect on the words and truths here and pray in response to our God

O LORD, hear our evening prayers
As we return our thanks to you
For all you have done for us
We believe
Help our unbelief
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Evening Prayer with Others

As we step into the weekend….. with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from AMOS chapter 4 verses 4-13 – as we continue to pause in the Old Testament….

We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer as the day closes….

We REJOICE in the help and blessings He has given this particular Friday – to us and to others

We ASK for His presence, peace and strength – for ourselves and for others in our church family and our nation and in our world at this time – especially prayerfully supporting the people of Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, Ukraine, Russia, Yemen and other parts of our world in deep need at this time

We YIELD – say Yes – to His Kingdom ways for tomorrow

Daily Devotions for Friday 15th November, 2024

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Jesus

Reading : JOEL chapter 1
Meditation : take time and consider all that is said here
The people mourn
Crops destroyed

What images or words stay with you?
What words encourage and challenge you today?

And then Pray with honest 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, Holy Spirit,
Have mercy on those we name before you
Give hope and blessing we ask
Amen – we pray together.

Evening
Reading : read this passage again from JOEL chapter 1

Humbly

In Jesus’ name, Amen and Amen
