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


Today’s Reading: Psalm 41:1-6

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

LORD God,
 forgive me
when I have looked down on others in need.
Open my eyes to someone
I may help today.
In Jesus name I pray.
Amen.

Jesus Shows Compassion 

Jesus went through all the towns and villages,
teaching in their synagogues,
proclaiming the good news of the kingdom
and healing every disease and sickness. 
When he saw the crowds,
he had compassion on them,
because they were harassed and helpless,
like sheep without a shepherd. 
Then he said to his disciples,
“The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.”
(Matthew 9:35-37 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.
(1 John 4:10 NIV)

Pray for enduring peace in Israel and Gaza,

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.

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:


LORD God,
I need you as I face the days ahead.

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.

Today’s Reading: Psalm 40:6-10

LORD God,
 help me to truly hear
and obey your voice.

Not My Will

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.”.
(Luke 22:39-42 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.

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

LORD God,
I thank you for Jesus.

Live a Life Worthy of the Lord

We continually ask God
to fill you with the knowledge of his will
through all the wisdom and understanding
that the Spirit gives,
so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord
and please him in every way:
bearing fruit in every good work,
growing in the knowledge of God,
being strengthened with all power
according to his glorious might
so that you may have great endurance
and patience,
and giving joyful thanks to the Father,
who has qualified you to share in the inheritance
of his holy people in the kingdom of light.
For he has rescued us
from the dominion of darkness
and brought us into the kingdom
of the Son he loves,
in whom we have redemption,
the forgiveness of sins.
(Psalm 90:10-12 NIV)*


This is love:
not that we loved God,
but that he loved us and sent his Son

Today’s Reading: Psalm 39:6-13

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

LORD God,
I need your saving help.
Through the redemptive blood of Jesus

I need your presence in my life

Seventy or Eighty Years

Our days may come to seventy years,
    or eighty, if our strength endures;
yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow,
    for they quickly pass, and we fly away.
If only we knew the power of your anger!
    Your wrath is as great as the fear that is your due.
Teach us to number our days,
    that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
(Psalm 90:10-12 NIV)*

not that we loved God,

Today’s Devotion from Psalms 365 by David Kitz

Reading: Psalm 39:6-13

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

“Surely everyone goes around like a mere phantom;
    in vain they rush about, heaping up wealth
    without knowing whose it will finally be.
“But now, LORD, what do I look for?
    My hope is in you.
Save me from all my transgressions;
    do not make me the scorn of fools.
I was silent; I would not open my mouth,
    for you are the one who has done this.
Remove your scourge from me;
    I am overcome by the blow of your hand.
When you rebuke and discipline anyone for their sin,
    you consume their wealth like a moth—surely everyone is but a breath.
“Hear my prayer, LORD, listen to my cry for help;
    do not be deaf to my weeping.
I dwell with you as a foreigner, a stranger, as all my ancestors were.
Look away from me, that I may enjoy life again
    before I depart and am no more”
(NIV)*

“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer


Today’s Reading: Psalm 39:1-5

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

LORD God,
show me your ways.
Show me how much I need you
day by day.
Help me to value every day you give me
on this earth.
Shine your light in me
and through me
by the power of Jesus.
Amen.

The Verdict

 This is the verdict:
Light has come into the world,
but people loved darkness instead of light
because their deeds were evil. 
Everyone who does evil hates the light,
and will not come into the light
for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 
But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light,
so that it may be seen plainly
that what they have done
has been done in the sight of God.
(John 3:19-21 NIV)*


Whoever does not love does not know God,
because God is love (1 John 4:8 NIV)

I will praise the LORD!


Reading: Psalm 25:8-15

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

Good and upright is the LORD;
    therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.
He guides the humble in what is right
    and teaches them his way.
All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful
    toward those who keep the demands of his covenant.
For the sake of your name, LORD,
    forgive my iniquity, though it is great.
Who, then, are those who fear the LORD?
    He will instruct them in the ways they should choose.
They will spend their days in prosperity,
    and their descendants will inherit the land.
The LORD confides in those who fear him;
    he makes his covenant known to them.
My eyes are ever on the LORD,
    for only he will release my feet from the snare. (NIV)*

Reading: Psalm 25:1-7

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

Of David.

In you, LORD my God,
    I put my trust.
I trust in you;
    do not let me be put to shame,
    nor let my enemies triumph over me.
No one who hopes in you
    will ever be put to shame,
but shame will come on those
    who are treacherous without cause.
Show me your ways, LORD,
    teach me your paths.
Guide me in your truth and teach me,
    for you are God my Savior,
    and my hope is in you all day long.
Remember, LORD, your great mercy and love,
    for they are from of old.
Do not remember the sins of my youth
    and my rebellious ways;
according to your love remember me,
    for you, LORD, are good. (NIV)*

We are witnesses of these things,
