Morning Prayer
Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Inspiration
God will have His full due from us. His glory he will not give to another. Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but to Thy name give glory! (Psalm 115:1) Your grace on us you bestow, but your glory you will not share. Great overflowing blessings you pour down on us, but the credit for it all you jealously guard. For that is right and fitting, that you should have indeed your full due.
Prayer
Our hearts desire is to exalt you, Father, and not ourselves. Nor will we exalt any idol that would wish to take away even the least particle of your glory. For ever and ever and ever, in the realms of eternal glory, we will sing praises to your glorious name. Let us begin that song now, even today. Amen.
Night Prayer
Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
Inspiration
From the ancient world to the present day, how many philosophers have come and gone? How many ideas became little more than passing trends or failed experiments? Only the wisdom that comes from God is durable and eternal. And His wisdom always proves itself superior to even the best human thinking.
Prayer
Lord, as I take in the voices and ideas around me, I am swept up in a whirlwind of information. Help me to hear Your voice over the clamor. Give me the wisdom to recognize hollow and vain philosophies that are not of You. Instead, teach me to rely on Your truth, even if the world around me sways in another direction. In Jesus’ name, amen.
