Upper Room day – time out with God
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Father God
Reading : PSALM 95
Meditation : consider all that is said here… at the start of your day.
The LORD is a Great King.
Which words stay with you?
What is God saying to you from His Word about Himself?
And then Pray these words as your own this morning
Come, let us sing to the LORD!
Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation.
Let us come to him with thanksgiving.
Let us sing psalms of praise to him.
For the LORD is a great God,
a great King above all gods.
He holds in his hands the depths of the earth
and the mightiest mountains.
The sea belongs to him, for he made it.
His hands formed the dry land, too.
Come, let us worship and bow down.
Let us kneel before the LORD our maker,
for he is our God.
We are the people he watches over,
the flock under his care.
Amen!

As I wait for tomorrow.
As I look around at this world
In these days.

My King and my God.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
