Find out if there is any evil in me
and guide me in the everlasting way

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Saturday Evening Prayer with Others

As we step into Palm Sunday….. with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from ROMANS 5 verses 1-11 – as we consider BEFORE THE GOOD NEWS – GOD’S PLAN BEGINS through 2024.

We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer as the day closes….

We REJOICE in the help and blessings He has given this particular Saturday – to us and to others

We ASK for His presence, peace and strength – for ourselves and for others in our church family and our nation and in our world at this time – especially prayerfully supporting the people of Ukraine, Israel, Gaza, Haiti, Yemen and other parts of our world in deep need at this time

We YIELD – say Yes – to His Kingdom ways for tomorrow

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from God, the Holy Spirit
Reading : ROMANS 5 verses 1-11

Meditation : take the time to consider these words and truths this Saturday morning.
Put right with God
Faith
Hope

Which words stay with you as your day starts?
What is God teaching you about Himself today?

Praise the LORD!
It is good to sing praise to our God;
it is pleasant and right to praise him.
The LORD is restoring Jerusalem;
he is bringing back the exiles.
He heals the broken-hearted
and bandages their wounds.
He has decided the number of the stars
and calls each one by name.
Great and mighty is our Lord;
his wisdom cannot be measured.
He raises the humble,
but crushes the wicked to the ground.

Amen we pray with praise together this new day!

Evening
Reading : read the verses again from ROMANS 5 verses 1-11
Reflect on the words…. and then Pray with Praise in response to what you have read
This is our God! The God who puts us right with Himself!

Sing hymns of praise to the LORD;
play music on the harp to our God.
He spreads clouds over the sky;
he provides rain for the earth
and makes grass grow on the hills.
He gives animals their food
and feeds the young ravens when they call.
His pleasure is not in strong horses,
nor his delight in brave soldiers;
but he takes pleasure in those who honour him,
in those who trust in his constant love

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
