Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
Today’s Reading: Psalm 83:1-8(NIV)*
Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:
LORD God,
we have a powerful opponent,
but we have victory through your Son,
the Lord Jesus Christ.
I call on your awesome name.
Give me victory over sin and the forces of evil
that are out to destroy my life. My strength is in you.
Amen.

Gospel Reading:
Gethsemane
Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane,
and he said to them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.”
He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him,
and he began to be sorrowful and troubled.
Then he said to them,
“My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death.
Stay here and keep watch with me.”
Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed,
“My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me.
Yet not as I will, but as you will.”
Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping.
“Couldn’t you men keep watch with me for one hour?” he asked Peter.
“Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.
The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
He went away a second time and prayed,
“My Father, if it is not possible for this cup
to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done.”
When he came back, he again found them sleeping,
because their eyes were heavy.
So he left them and went away once more and prayed the third time,
saying the same thing.
Then he returned to the disciples and said to them,
“Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour has come,
and the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners.
Rise! Let us go! Here comes my betrayer!”
(Matthew 26:36-46).

The one who keeps God’s commands lives in him, and he in them.
And this is how we know that he lives in us:
We know it by the Spirit he gave us.
(1 John 3:24 NIV)
