Daily Devotions for Thursday 14th January, 2021

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

Reading : PSALM 62

Meditation : take time and consider what is said here – as your day starts.
What do these words mean to you?
What is God teaching you about Himself?

And then pray in response as your day starts

Pray your own words to the LORD God
In worship and thanks for what you have read,
In confession and need to be more like Jesus,
And for others known to you at this time in a hard place.

O LORD
Receive our morning praise and hear our prayers.
We ask in Jesus’ name.
Amen.

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on the work of Edinburgh City Mission in 2021
O LORD, hear our prayers and pour out a blessing we ask on each and all

As we thank You for Your help in our lives.
O have mercy we ask
On others
On our Church
On our world
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
