Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”


Today’s Reading: Psalm 93(NIV)*

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

LORD God,
I want your holiness to adorn my house and my heart.
Help me to conform to your will and your ways,
rather than the other way around.
You are my Lord.
Reign on sovereign LORD.
Reign in glorious majesty.
Amen.

Gospel Reading:
Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralyzed Man

One day Jesus was teaching,
and Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there.
They had come from every village of Galilee
and from Judea and Jerusalem.
And the power of the Lord was with Jesus to heal the sick. 
Some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat
and tried to take him into the house to lay him before Jesus. 
When they could not find a way to do this because of the crowd,
they went up on the roof
and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd,
right in front of Jesus.

When Jesus saw their faith, he said,
“Friend, your sins are forgiven.”

The Pharisees and the teachers of the law began thinking to themselves,
“Who is this fellow who speaks blasphemy?
Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

Jesus knew what they were thinking and asked,
“Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?
 Which is easier: to say,
‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say,
‘Get up and walk’?
But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.”
So he said to the paralyzed man,
“I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.”
Immediately he stood up in front of them,
took what he had been lying on and went home praising God.
 Everyone was amazed and gave praise to God.
They were filled with awe and said,
“We have seen remarkable things today.”
(Luke 5:17-26).

This is how we know that we live in him and he in us:
He has given us of his Spirit.

Today’s Reading: Psalm 92: 9-15(NIV)*

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

Gospel Reading:
Jesus Heals a Man With Leprosy

While Jesus was in one of the towns,
a man came along who was covered with leprosy.
When he saw Jesus,
he fell with his face to the ground and begged him,
“Lord, if you are willing,
you can make me clean.”

Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man.
“I am willing,” he said.
 “Be clean!”
And immediately the leprosy left him.

Then Jesus ordered him,
“Don’t tell anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest
and offer the sacrifices that Moses commanded for your cleansing,
as a testimony to them.”

Yet the news about him spread all the more,
so that crowds of people came to hear him
and to be healed of their sicknesses.
But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.
(Luke 5:12-16).

Gospel Reading:
Jesus Calls His First Disciples

One day as Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret,
 the people were crowding around him and listening to the word of God. 
He saw at the water’s edge two boats, left there by the fishermen,
who were washing their nets. 
He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon,
and asked him to put out a little from shore.
Then he sat down and taught the people from the boat.
When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon,
“Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.”

Simon answered, “Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything.
But because you say so, I will let down the nets.”

When they had done so,
they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. 
So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them,
and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

When Simon Peter saw this,
he fell at Jesus’ knees and said,
“Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!” 
For he and all his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,
 and so were James and John,
the sons of Zebedee, Simon’s partners.

Then Jesus said to Simon,
“Don’t be afraid; from now on you will fish for people.”
 So they pulled their boats up on shore,
left everything and followed him.
(Luke 5:1-11).

Today’s quote and prayer from

Today’s Reading: Psalm 91: 9-16(NIV)*

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

LORD,
you are such a good God.
I don’t deserve your goodness and love
and yet you continually pour out your blessings.
I love you, LORD.
I want to dwell in you now and always.
Amen.

Gospel Reading:
Jesus Heals Many

Jesus left the synagogue and went to the home of Simon.
Now Simon’s mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever,
and they asked Jesus to help her. 
So he bent over her and rebuked the fever,
and it left her. She got up at once and began to wait on them.

At sunset, the people brought to Jesus all who had various kinds of sickness,
and laying his hands on each one, he healed them.
 Moreover, demons came out of many people, shouting,
“You are the Son of God!”
 But he rebuked them and would not allow them to speak,
because they knew he was the Messiah.

At daybreak, Jesus went out to a solitary place.
The people were looking for him and when they came to where he was,
they tried to keep him from leaving them.
But he said,
“I must proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns also,
because that is why I was sent.”
 And he kept on preaching in the synagogues of Judea.
(Luke 4:38-44).

This is how we know that we live in him and he in us:
