Night Prayer
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
Inspiration
When God decided there should be light, He simply spoke the command and there was light! He has the power to move mountains with the wave of a gentle hand and part seas with a gentle whisper. It’s incredible to be so small and loved by a heavenly Father so mighty. In the face of danger, we have no fear. Our Father is always with us, making our footsteps sturdy as we walk upon the very ground He created.
Prayer
Dear God, we are humbled by Your great love. Thank you for protecting us in our daily walk with You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Night Prayer
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
Inspiration
We despise the thought of a pile of dirty dishes in the sink. The outside is easy to clean; it's the caked-up residue on the inside that's so difficult to remove. Jesus compares the scribes and Pharisees with dishes that have been wiped clean on the outside while dirty inside. The Pharisees took exceptional care of their outward appearance and neglected their inward spirits. We are guilty of allowing our hearts to be left filthy as well. We look and act as we should while our souls are full of darkness. We must continue to converse with the Holy Spirit daily and trust His guidance to cleanse our sinful nature.
Prayer
Dear God, Please forgive our sinful nature. We yearn for cleansing from within, so we are genuine witnesses to Your name. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
