Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from the Living God

Reading : LUKE 9 verses 1-6
Meditation : take time and consider this chapter this particular Sunday morning.
Sent out.
The twelve.
What does this short passage mean for you today?
What is God teaching/reminding you about His ways?

And then pray in response
Naming others on the mission front line known to you

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Midday
Pray the Lord’s Prayer as your own midday prayer

Our Father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be Your Name.
Your kingdom come
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our sins
As we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory.
Now and for ever
Amen

Evening
Reading : read these particular verses again from LUKE 9 verses 1-6
Reflect on the words and images and then Pray in response to this God

I say to the LORD, “You are my God.”
Hear my cry for help, LORD!
My Sovereign LORD, my strong defender,
you have protected me in battle.

O LORD, hear our evening prayers we ask
As we thank you for the blessings of this Sunday
As we believe and trust in you
As we name others on the mission front line
As we pilgrimage on into this new week
In Jesus’ name
Amen!

Dear Jesus,

and the strangers in our midst.

Find out if there is any evil in me
and guide me in the everlasting way

Naming others in need known to you at this time

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
