For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9 verse 6

Here was the Day 6 post for us to ponder afresh…..God Walks with Us
First Sunday in Advent
Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from the Living God
Reading : ISAIAH chapter 9 verse 1-7
Meditation : take time and consider these words this Sunday morning
The future King
A child is born
Wonderful
What encourages and challenges you today?
What words stay with you?
And then pray in response to the LORD our God
Pray your own prayer as you step into today.
Looking again at verses 6 and 7
In Jesus’ Wonderful Name, Amen.
Midday
Pray the Lord’s Prayer as your midday 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
Evening
Reading : read these verses again from ISAIAH chapter 9 verses 1-7
Reflect on all that is said here in this short passage and then Pray in response to this God
O LORD, our Great God,
Wondeful Counsellor
Prince of Peace
Hear our evening prayers of praise we ask
As we thank you for what we read
As we look back over our day
As we look ahead to tomorrow
As we name before you those we are concerned about.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
As we step into a new week….. with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from JOHN 10 verses 1-21 – as we consider TELLING OTHERS THE GOOD NEWS about Jesus through 2023.
We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer as the day closes….and reflect on all that has happened
We REJOICE in the help and blessings He has given this particular Sunday – 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, Somalia and other parts of our world in deep need at this time
We YIELD – say Yes – to His Kingdom ways for tomorrow
Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written.
John 21 verse 25
