Morning Prayer
So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
Inspiration
Yes, we can take comfort in knowing that God will forever be with us, His children. God's promises to be with us through everything we face, will never run out; His promises will never expire. God has always proven His faithfulness and because of this we can be fully confident in and encouraged by Him. If you are going through any trials or tribulations, take heart, for God is with you.
Prayer
Dear God, I take courage in knowing that you are always with me and you are for me. Lord, in times where people may try to oppose me, may you help me to stay focused on you and nothing else. For as long as you are with me, I know that I can never be shaken. In Jesus' name, I pray. 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.
