DAILY PRAYER 51

Picture
Trieb, Germany
Opening Prayer
Let the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer
-Psalm 19:14

(silent reflection)

Prayer of the Bible
Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will depart.  Lord, You give and You take away; Blessed be Your name, O Lord
-Job 1:21

(Free expression of praise and thanksgiving to God)

Confession of Sin
To shame our sins He blushed in blood; He closed His eyes to show us God; let all the world fall down and know that none but God such love can show
-Bernard of Clairvaux (1090-1153)

(Time of silence for confession of sin)

The Words of Jesus
Andrew Simon said, “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are they for so many?”  Jesus said, “have the people sit down.” There were about five thousand in number.  Jesus then took the loaves and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seated.  So also the fish, as much as they wanted.  And when they had eaten their fill, he told his disciples, “Gather up the leftovers, so that nothing may be lost..”
-John 6: 9-12

(Think deeply on these life-giving words of Jesus)

Prayers for Ourselves and Others
May my prayer be set before you like incense; may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice.
-Psalm 141:2

(Time to bring before God our own needs and the needs of others)

Closing Prayer
I give thanks to my God always for you because of the grace of God that was given you in Christ Jesus, that in every way you were enriched in him in all speech and all knowledge—even as the testimony about Christ was confirmed among you—so that you are not lacking in any gift, as you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.  God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.  
-I Corinthians 1: 4-9
