Morning Prayer
God thundereth marvellously with his voice; great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend.
Inspiration
When we ponder all the things God has done and created, we are left standing in awe. We simply cannot comprehend his ways. This is because God's ways are not like our ways. Humans are not capable of speaking and making the storms cease, but God is capable and he has done so. It's amazing that with his voice he spoke darkness into light.
Prayer
Dear God, your works are marvelous. The power you have is unfathomable. You are amazing and we stand in awe. O Lord, we know one day every knee will bow before you for you are the creator of Heaven and Earth. Your voice alone has the power to speak life. When I begin to place my trust in anyone or anything before you, help me to remember who you are and what you can do. 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.
