Today’s quote and prayer from

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:
https://davidkitz.blog/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/ps-4913-end-mix2final1.mp3

LORD God,
I thank you that Jesus,
my Redeemer, lives!
I put my trust in you,
now and for eternity.
I rest in the hope that a new day will dawn
when the dead in Christ will rise.
Amen.

Lent Reading:
Peter’s Denial

Meanwhile,
Simon Peter was still standing there warming himself.
So they asked him,
“You aren’t one of his disciples too, are you?”

“He denied it, saying, “I am not.”

One of the high priest’s servants,
a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off,
challenged him,
“Didn’t I see you with him in the garden?”
 
Again Peter denied it,
and at that moment a rooster began to crow.
(John 18:25-27).

This is love:
not that we loved God,
but that he loved us and sent his Son
as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
(1 John 4:10 NIV)

Pray for peace in Israel, Iran and the Middle East
and continue to pray for peace to return to Ukraine and Russia!

Volume I of Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer won the Best Book of the Year Award from The Word Guild and Volume II has won the Best Devotional of the Year Award. For those who love God’s word, this three-book series is an ideal way to daily meet with the Lord. To purchase or for a closer look click here.

Ideal for the Season of Lent


Watch the triumphal entry of the donkey-riding king through the eyes of Marcus Longinus, the centurion charged with keeping the streets from erupting into open rebellion.

Look behind the scenes at the political plotting of King Herod, known as the scheming Fox for his ruthless shrewdness.

Get a front-row seat to the confrontation between the Jewish high priest Caiaphas and the Roman governor Pontius Pilate.

Understand as never before the horror of the decision to save a brutal terrorist in order to condemn the peaceful Jew to death.

If you’ve heard the story of Passion Week so often it’s become stale, now is the time to rediscover the terrible events leading from Jesus’s humble ride into the city to his crucifixion. The Soldier Who Killed a King will stun you afresh with how completely Christ’s resurrection changed history, one life at a time.

By the Gift of God’s Grace

I became a servant of this gospel
by the gift of God’s grace
given me through the working of his power.
Although
I am less than the least of all the Lord’s people,
this grace was given me:
to preach to the Gentiles
the boundless riches of Christ,
 
and to make plain to everyone
the administration of this mystery,
which for ages past was kept hidden in God,
who created all things.

(
Ephesians 3:7-9 NIV)*


This is love:
not that we loved God,
but that he loved us and sent his Son
as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

Children of God

 See what great love
the Father has lavished on us,
that we should be called children of God!
And that is what we are!
The reason the world does not know us
is that it did not know him.
 
Dear friends,
now we are children of God,
and what we will be
has not yet been made known.
But we know that when Christ appears,
we shall be like him,
for we shall see him as he is.
 
All who have this hope in him purify themselves,
just as he is pure.

(
1 John 3:1-3 NIV)*

Three That Testify

This is the one who came by water and blood—
Jesus Christ.
He did not come by water only,
but by water and blood.
And it is the Spirit who testifies,
because the Spirit is the truth.
 
For there are three that testify:
 
the Spirit, the water and the blood;
and the three are in agreement.
 
We accept human testimony,
but God’s testimony is greater
because it is the testimony of God,
which he has given about his Son.

The Gift of God

And God raised us up with Christ
and seated us with him
in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,

in order that in the coming ages
he might show the incomparable riches of his grace,
expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus.

For it is by grace you have been saved,
through faith—
and this is not from yourselves,
it is the gift of God—

not by works, so that no one can boast.
(Ephesians 2:6-9 NIV)*

Minds Set on Things Above

Since, then,
you have been raised with Christ,
set your hearts on things above,
where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.

Set your minds on things above,
not on earthly things.

For you died,
and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.

When Christ,
who is your life, appears,
then you also will appear with him in glory.

(Colossians 3:1-7 NIV)*

Standing Firm in Faith

But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead,
the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
 
For since death came through a man,
the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man.
 
For as in Adam all die,
so in Christ all will be made alive.
 
But each in turn:
Christ, the firstfruits;
then, when he comes,
those who belong to him.
 
Then the end will come,
when he hands over the kingdom to God the Father
after he has destroyed all dominion,
authority and power.
 
For he must reign
until he has put all his enemies under his feet.
 
The last enemy to be destroyed is death.
(1 Corinthians 15:20-26 NIV)*

Standing Firm in Faith

Be alert and of sober mind.
Your enemy the devil prowls around
like a roaring lion
looking for someone to devour.

Resist him,
standing firm in the faith,
because you know that the family of believers
throughout the world is undergoing
the same kind of sufferings.

And the God of all grace,
who called you to his eternal glory in Christ,
after you have suffered a little while,
will himself restore you
and make you strong,
firm and steadfast.

To him be the power for ever and ever.
Amen.

Words of Wisdom

Trust in the LORD with all your heart
    and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him,
    and he will make your paths straight.

Do not be wise in your own eyes;
    fear the LORD and shun evil.
This will bring health to your body
    and nourishment to your bones.
(Proverbs 3:5-8 NIV)*
