Daily Devotions for Saturday 8th August, 2020

Pray for Summer Buzz on TV!

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit

Reading : PSALM 101 verse 2

Meditation : take time to consider these words this morning.
What do they mean for you?
What is God asking of you at this time in your life?

And then Pray in response to what you read – to this God of ours.
Ask
Seek
Knock
Receive

In Jesus’ name
Amen

Midday
Pray the Prayer for the Month as your midday prayer

As we consider being “fearfully and wonderfully made” in Your image God, we think of what makes us special. Our five physical senses which enable us to experience joy, pleasure, and wonderment, at your creation Also, we, like you, have knowledge, understanding and wisdom.
Most of all our heavenly father you have imbued us with love, that deep sense of care and empathy which raises us above your creation.
We receive your love to dispense your love, may we continue to do so in Jesus name. Amen

Evening
Reading : read this part of PSALM 101 again

Reflect on your God, our God…and your life at this time…..
and then Pray to Him in response

LORD God, our God, my God,
Thank you
For who You are
For all you have done for us, for me.
O hear my evening prayer
Be near me
Help me
Purify me afresh
In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Call to Saturday Evening Prayer

I will sing of your love and justice, Lord.
I will praise you with songs.
I will be careful to live a blameless life—
when will you come to help me?
I will lead a life of integrity
in my own home.
I will refuse to look at
anything vile and vulgar.
I hate all who deal crookedly;
I will have nothing to do with them.
I will reject perverse ideas
and stay away from every evil.
I will not tolerate people who slander their neighbours.
I will not endure conceit and pride.

I will search for faithful people
to be my companions.
Only those who are above reproach
will be allowed to serve me.
I will not allow deceivers to serve in my house,
and liars will not stay in my presence.
My daily task will be to ferret out the wicked
and free the city of the Lord from their grip

We say Amen – as we journey into Sunday together.

Words from this morning’s Daily Devotions – Psalm 101

Thy Kingdom Come #celebrate

As a Church we took part in the global prayer venture of Thy Kingdom Come earlier this year.
This ran during the 11 days between Ascension and Pentecost.

Each Saturday at 12 noon we are continuing to ask and seek and knock on Heaven’s door…..’Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done’…..and to pray for up to 5 people we know to meet with Jesus and to experience God’s Kingdom reign in their lives.

This week we focus on the theme of CELEBRATE as we pause to pray in praise with others.
We are invited to spend time giving praise and celebration to the LORD our God.

Come on and celebrate!

Psalm 149
Praise the Lord!

Sing to the Lord a new song.
Sing his praises in the assembly of the faithful.

O Israel, rejoice in your Maker.
O people of Jerusalem, exult in your King.
Praise his name with dancing,
accompanied by tambourine and harp.
For the Lord delights in his people;
he crowns the humble with victory.
Let the faithful rejoice that he honours them.
Let them sing for joy as they lie on their beds.

Let the praises of God be in their mouths,
and a sharp sword in their hands—
to execute vengeance on the nations
and punishment on the peoples,
to bind their kings with shackles
and their leaders with iron chains,
to execute the judgment written against them.
This is the glorious privilege of his faithful ones.

Praise the Lord!

Amen!

Meditation : take time to consider these words this Saturday morning.
A king’s promise.
What is God saying to you today from His Word about Himself?

Pray in response to the God of Psalm 101
Looking again at verses 3-5 as you turn to prayer

O LORD
Our God
Mighty and Holy One,
Receive our praise
Hear our prayers
And keep us on the right path we ask
As you walk with us this day
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.

Midday

Reading : read this PSALM again as your day closes

Reflect prayerfully on the words and images ….. and then Pray in response
Especially for others in need of receiving forgiveness at this time

Spirit of the Living God, hear our evening prayers at the end of this day
And be with those we name before you.
In Jesus’ saving name, Amen.
