Night Prayer
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
Inspiration
It’s challenging to remain consistent in our daily routine as we rush to be somewhere on time with our affairs in order. Often, we show up late, lack preparation, or even forget about our commitments altogether. God is consistent in His commitment to us! His devotion has been continuous since the beginning of time and will continue until our ending days. We are beyond blessed to be loved by Him.
Prayer
Dear Lord, we have hope and faith in Your will for our lives because Your love is consistent. Please help us reflect Your love in the world around us. 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.
