Daily Devotions for MARCH 2022

In this way the priest will make atonement for them for the sin they have committed, and they will be forgiven.
Leviticus 4 verse 35

During 2022 we are looking daily at the theme of GOOD NEWS as we journey with Paul through his letter to the ROMANS – and pausing at our times of Midday Devotion to pray for others in our church family, our city and our world.

In March, as we journey though Lent, we look into LEVITICUS as well as ROMANS.
Leviticus is not an easy book to chew over – but there are truths behind the words that will help us understand more about God’s Good News through the Sacrifice of Jesus.

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

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

A Prayer for the Month of MARCH

Thank you Jesus Christ
That you came
From heaven to earth
As God’s perfect sacrifice

Spirit of God
Prompt us
Enable us
To share this Good News

In our family circle
In Liberton
In Edinburgh
In our world

In Jesus’ name
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
