Daily Devotions for DECEMBER 2024

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.
We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

John 1 verse 14

In 2024 we were considering BEFORE THE GOOD NEWS – GOD’S PLAN BEGINS – as we stepped back into the Old Testament and pausing at our times of Midday Devotion to pray for others in our church family, our city and our world.

In December we celebrate the birth of a Saviour! His name is JESUS.

We are all invited to listen for God’s voice and make our response
as we journey together in our closing ‘rhythm of devotion’ in 2024.

These Devotions are but one way to feed on God’s Word in the morning, at midday,
in the evening… to pray with Him continually through the day
and even to share with others the treasures or hurdles you discover.
The Church website and Facebook page (even on a handy mobile) provide a fuller daily devotional page. However it all follows the pattern below which the information provided
fits into, based on the Kirk’s origins of the Celtic and Northumbrian traditions
which we started as a church family in 2015.

Morning
Reading and Meditation on the content and Prayer of response
Midday
Prayer – mostly for others
Evening
Verse(s) from the morning reading
Reflection and Prayer at the end of the day

Prayer for the Month of DECEMBER

Jesus
Name above all names
We bow before You

Jesus
Word of Life
Come to us

Jesus
Son of God
Live with us

Jesus
Saviour and Lord
Save us

Amen and Amen!

The Lord’s 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
