Daily Devotions for Friday 22nd October, 2021

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Jesus

Reading : LUKE 15 verses 8-10

Meditation : As we pause with Jesus this morning
Take the time and consider this scene of rejoicing!
When did you last rejoice with the angels?

And then pray in response – as your day starts
including for someone ‘lost’
and for someone recently ‘found’

Pray your own honest words to the LORD our God.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Midday
We give thanks for the Bible in our own language
Father, Son and Holy Spirit – thank you, thank you!

Evening
Reading : read this short passage again from LUKE 15
Reflect on the words and events here and pray in response to Jesus

O LORD, hear our evening prayers
As we return our thanks to you
For those you have brought back home
And for those you are drawing nearer to at this time
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

A Call to Evening Prayer with Others

As your Friday closes you are invited to pause and pray with others in our Church Family as the weekend starts

You may want to revisit the Daily Devotions for today from PSALM 92

You are encouraged to follow the pattern of P-R-A-Y which we have found to be a blessing from Lectio365/24-7 Prayer

P ause in God’s presence – acknowledge He is with you where you are

R ejoice in the blessings of this day He has given

A sk for His help – for yourself and for a situation/person known to you at this time

Y ield to His Kingdom will for tomorrow – say yes!
