As we journey through Lent – with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from LEVITICUS chapter 17 – as we consider the perfect sacrifice of Jesus
We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer
We REJOICE in the blessings He has given this day – to us and to others
We ASK for His presence, peace and strength – for ourselves and for others in our world at this time – especially for peace between Russia and Ukraine
We YIELD – say Yes – to His Kingdom ways for tomorrow
On this Friday in Lent…as the nation and the world wrestles with the virus and vaccine supplies…and the crisis in Ukraine is a major concern before us in our world … you are invited to pause and continue to pray with others in our city and across the nation…to the LORD our God, our Father God.
You are encouraged to continue to pray for all those affected by the coronavirus – in our community, in our nation and in our world – and for all those in need on our Church Prayer List at this time – and for parts of the world in turmoil at this time
For family and friends and neighbours affected by the coronavirus
For the situation in Ukraine and Russia at this time
For NHS and Care Home staff across the nation
For those who are feeling lonely at this time
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Jesus
Reading : LEVITICUS chapter 17
Meditation : take time and consider all that is said here
The Sacredness of Blood
What images or words stay with you?
What is God teaching/reminding you?
And then Pray with words of Praise to this God of ours in response
And so we bring our sacrifice of praise to you, our God Most High.
Amen – we pray together.
