Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Father God

Reading : ISAIAH 5 verses 1-7

Meditation : as we pause with God we consider this song at the start of the day.
What are the words of your song at this time?
Who are you concerned about?

And then Pray in response to what you have read
Taking time to thank God for His blessings in your life

Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
I have read these words
And now I pray for you to work them out
as a living reality in my life – even today
as I thank you that you are with me
on my journey through life.
O help and guide and bless those I name before you
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.

Evening
Reading : read the verses again from ISAIAH 5 verses 1-7
Reflect prayerfully on these words…. And then pray as your day closes

LORD God, our great God,
Thank you for being there with me
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.
