Night Prayer
And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
Inspiration
Light and dark simply cannot be combined. Sin is the darkness that separates us from God and this did not please Him so He sent Jesus. Jesus’s death on the cross paid the price for all our sins. He was the ultimate sacrifice, our light in the darkness. The sin abounding in our lives will be abolished and we will be united in eternity once again.
Prayer
Dear God, we walk in the darkness of sin without You. Thank you for sending your Son to die on calvary and pay the ultimate price for our sin. 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.
