Morning Prayer
My righteousness is near; my salvation is gone forth, and mine arms shall judge the people; the isles shall wait upon me, and on mine arm shall they trust.
Inspiration
God has proved his power throughout the ages, fulfilling his promises of punishing the wicked, flooding the world, and leading his children to the holy lands of Israel. Unlike our own word which so often has an expiration date stamped upon it, God does not commit false promises, his words cannot fail us.
Prayer
Lord God, creator of the Heaven and the Earth, glory to you who fulfills all prophesies, glory to you who has kept his holiest of promises. Give me faith Lord, that your word will be made truth, and that I will in turn give your truth my word, my alliance, my allegiance. To you I pray, Almighty Father, 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.
