Morning Prayer
Shew me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths.
Inspiration
We surrender our hearts to the Lord and seek to follow His ways by aligning our walk with His plan. There is nothing more important than the will of God, and we will make it a priority in our daily lives. We will wake each morning, thank Him for His blessings, and ask what we can do for Him. We will help those in need and continue to spread the Good News as directed because we are devoted to our loving Father.
Prayer
Dear Father, We find peace and comfort in Your arms, and we are devoted to You. We ask for Your direction today so we may live according to Your will. 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.
