1st Prayer: January 25,2011


You are the Lord, you are compassionate, you are the doer of good.

You are patient and almighty.

In all things you are strong beyond comprehension

and words

to pardon, to save, to grant life,

to enlighten, to establish anew,

to snatch from the jaws of ferocious beasts,

or from the teeth of dragons and restore life,

to lead from the depths of the abyss to the light of bliss,

and from drowning in the waves of sin

to be seated among the righteous with the glory

of the blessed.

Every soul awaits you with hope and expectation,

longing for your grace,

whether heavenly or earthly,

whether fallen in sin or exalted with righteousness,

whether master or servant,

whether lady or maid.

And in your hand is the life breath of every creature.

To you with the Father and the Holy Spirit,

glory forever and ever.

Amen.

Scriptural Readings:

Proverbs 7:1-7.

Proverbs 7:1-7 (King James Version)




Proverbs 7

1My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.



2Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.



3Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.



4Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:



5That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.



6For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,



7And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,






Ezra 12:17-19.

Romans 8:12-27.

Romans 8:12-27 (King James Version)




12Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.



13For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.



14For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.



15For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.



16The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:



17And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.



18For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.



19For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.



20For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,



21Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.



22For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.



23And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.



24For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?



25But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.



26Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.



27And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.






Luke 9:23-27.


Luke 9:23-27 (King James Version)




23And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.



24For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.



25For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?



26For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.



27But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.
