“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer


Today’s Reading: Psalm 55:9-15 (NIV)*

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

LORD God
 I want you to find lodging in my heart
through Jesus Christ your Son.

a pure heart and mind,
so I can love and serve you
with joy.
Amen.

Post Resurrection Reading:
Jesus and Thomas

A week later his disciples were in the house again,
and Thomas was with them.
Though the doors were locked,
Jesus came and stood among them and said,
“Peace be with you!”

Then he said to Thomas,
“Put your finger here;
see my hands.
Reach out your hand
and put it into my side.
Stop doubting and believe.”


Thomas said to him,
“My Lord and my God!”

Then Jesus told him,
“Because you have seen me,
you have believed;
blessed are those who have not seen
and yet have believed.”
(John 20:26-29).

* * *

This is how we know what love is:
Jesus Christ laid down his life for us.
And we ought to lay down our lives
for our brothers and sisters.
(1 John 3:16 NIV)

Post Resurrection Reading:
Receive His Peace

On the evening of that first day of the week,
when the disciples were together,
with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders,
Jesus came and stood among them and said,
“Peace be with you!”

After he said this,
he showed them his hands and side.
The disciples were overjoyed
when they saw the Lord.

Again Jesus said,
“Peace be with you!
As the Father has sent me,
I am sending you.”

And with that he breathed on them and said,
“Receive the Holy Spirit.

If you forgive anyone’s sins,
their sins are forgiven;
if you do not forgive them,
they are not forgiven.”

(John 20:19-23).

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).

Lent Reading:
Jesus Arrested

Then Simon Peter,
who had a sword,
drew it and struck the high priest’s servant,
cutting off his right ear.
(The servant’s name was Malchus.)

Jesus commanded Peter,
“Put your sword away!
Shall I not drink the cup
the Father has given me?”

Then the detachment of soldiers with its commander
and the Jewish officials arrested Jesus.
They bound him
 
and brought him first to Annas,
who was the father-in-law of Caiaphas,
the high priest that year.
 
Caiaphas was the one
who had advised the Jewish leaders
that it would be good if one man died for the people.
(John 18:10-14).

Judas Comes to the Garden

When he had finished praying,
Jesus left with his disciples
and crossed the Kidron Valley.
On the other side there was a garden,
and he and his disciples went into it.

Now Judas, who betrayed him,
knew the place,
because Jesus had often met there with his disciples.

So Judas came to the garden,
guiding a detachment of soldiers and some officials
from the chief priests and the Pharisees.
They were carrying torches, lanterns and weapons.

(John 18:1-3).

Jesus went out as usual to the Mount of Olives,
and his disciples followed him.
 
On reaching the place,
he said to them,
“Pray that you will not fall into temptation.”
 
He withdrew about a stone’s throw beyond them,
knelt down and prayed,

“Father, if you are willing,
take this cup from me;
yet not my will, but yours be done.”
 
An angel from heaven appeared to him
and strengthened him.
 
And being in anguish,
he prayed more earnestly,
and his sweat was like drops of blood
falling to the ground.

(Luke 22:39-44).

Jesus Washes His Disciples Feet 

 Jesus knew that the Father
had put all things under his power,
and that he had come from God
and was returning to God;
 
so he got up from the meal,
took off his outer clothing,
and wrapped a towel around his waist.
 
After that,
he poured water into a basin
and began to wash his disciples’ feet,
drying them with the towel
that was wrapped around him.

He came to Simon Peter,
who said to him,
“Lord, are you going to wash my feet?”

Jesus replied,
“You do not realize now what I am doing,
but later you will understand.”

“No,” said Peter,
“you shall never wash my feet.”

Jesus answered,
“Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.”

“Then, Lord,” Simon Peter replied,
“not just my feet
but my hands and my head as well!”

Jesus answered,
“Those who have had a bath
need only to wash their feet;
their whole body is clean.
And you are clean,
though not every one of you.”
 
For he knew who was going to betray him,
and that was why he said not every one was clean.

(John 13:3-11).

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)

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.
