‘Meanwhile the word of God continued to spread and grow.’
Acts 12 verse 24
The Daily 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 your day and 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.
It was these traditions that gave birth to the Daily Devotions in early 2015.
Morning
Reading and Meditation on the content and a Prayer of response
Midday
Prayer – mostly for others
Evening
Verse(s) from the morning reading
Reflection and Prayer at the end of the day
———-
As the year moves on and the season of Looking OUTWARD together starts, so we are feeding on the New Testament book of ACTS during September and October – the Spirit is poured out!
the Church is born!
the Good News is spread further and further – and further!
Let me encourage you to listen for His voice as we continue in our ‘rhythm of devotion’ during 2017.
A Prayer for the Month
A Prayer for the Month of October
O Jesus the Christ
Name above all names
We confess you
Saviour and Lord
Jesus, Saviour for the world
We bow before the cross
And speak abroad
Your love in action
Lord Jesus, our Lord
We bow the knee
And surrender to the Spirit
To fill and use us
In our homes
In our street
In our city
In our world
O Jesus the Christ
Saviour for the world
Name above all names
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
