Morning Prayer
Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt.
Inspiration
As Christians, we have a lot of work to do in the name of God. Often, He gives us tasks that seem impossible. We feel unequipped, inexperienced, and afraid. We must remember that we do not understand the wisdom of God. His thoughts are higher than our thoughts, His ways higher than ours. We trust His knowledge regarding the tasks He assigns us and will get to work right away.
Prayer
Dear God, The tasks You assign us feel overwhelming. We have faith in Your plan and call upon You for wisdom and instruction as we complete all works in Your name. 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.
