Upper Room day – time out with God
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Father God
Reading : PSALM 47
Meditation : consider all that is said here about God, the Most High.
What words stay with you? What is God saying to you from His Word?
And then Pray in response to what you have read
Taking time first to wait before God
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.
In Jesus’ name.
Amen.
Midday
Take time to listen for God to speak with you at this time of day
‘Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done’
Father God…thank you.
Evening
Reading : read the verses again from PSALM 47
Reflect prayerfully on these words…. And then pray to this God as your day closes
LORD God, our Father 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.
