Morning Prayer
I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.
Inspiration
The story of salvation is precious, and we are eager to proclaim it to the world. We have personal stories and testimonies that help people relate to God and gain thorough knowledge regarding the path to righteousness. We will not keep the Gospel a secret! Instead, we will proclaim it from the mountain top; we will tell the world about the steadfast love of God and explain how faith in Jesus and repentance of our sin leads us to eternal life with our Heavenly Father.
Prayer
Dear Lord, Your love is precious, and we devote our lives to You. We will sing Your praises from the mountain tops with cheerful hearts. You are a loving Father, and we are thankful for Your faithful love. 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.
