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

 Today’s Reading: Psalm 35:1-6

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:


Heavenly Father,
give me a humble heart
that sees beyond my narrow interests.
Help me to stand for righteousness,
justice, and truth.
First,
I want to align my heart and my spirit
with you.
In Jesus’ name, I pray.
Amen.

Transcending All Understanding

Rejoice in the Lord always.
I will say it again: Rejoice!
Let your gentleness be evident to all.
The Lord is near.
Do not be anxious about anything,
but in every situation,
by prayer and petition,
with thanksgiving,
present your requests to God.
And the peace of God,
which transcends all understanding,
will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
(Philippians 4:4-7 NIV)*


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

Rejoicing in Hard Times

Though the fig tree does not bud
    and there are no grapes on the vines,
though the olive crop fails
    and the fields produce no food,
though there are no sheep in the pen
    and no cattle in the stalls,
yet I will rejoice in the LORD,
    I will be joyful in God my Savior.
(Habakkuk 3:17-18 NIV)*

I will praise the LORD!

Reading:  Psalm 33:16-22

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

No king is saved by the size of his army;
    no warrior escapes by his great strength.
A horse is a vain hope for deliverance;
    despite all its great strength it cannot save.
But the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him,
    on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,
 to deliver them from death
    and keep them alive in famine.
We wait in hope for the LORD;
    he is our help and our shield.
In him our hearts rejoice,
    for we trust in his holy name.
 May your unfailing love be with us, LORD,
    even as we put our hope in you.
(NIV)*

Paul Is Comforted

For when we came into Macedonia,
we had no rest,
but we were harassed at every turn—
conflicts on the outside,
fears within.
But God,
who comforts the downcast,
comforted us by the coming of Titus,
and not only by his coming
but also by the comfort you had given him.
He told us about your longing for me,
your deep sorrow,
your ardent concern for me,
so that my joy was greater than ever.
(2 Corinthians 7:5-7 NIV)*

The Last Supper

While they were eating,
Jesus took bread,
and when he had given thanks,
he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying,
“Take and eat; this is my body.”

Then he took a cup,
and when he had given thanks,
he gave it to them, saying,
“Drink from it, all of you.
This is my blood of the covenant,
which is poured out for many
for the forgiveness of sins.
I tell you,
I will not drink from this fruit of the vine
from now on until that day
when I drink it new with you
in my Father’s kingdom.”
(Matthew 26:26-29 NIV)*

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

 Today’s Reading: Psalm 34:1-7

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:


Those who look to him are radiant (Psalm 34:5a).
LORD God,
we look to you.
Today let me shine for you.
Help me to reflect
the love of Jesus
to others.
Amen.

     — — — —


The Son Is Superior

The Son is the radiance of God’s glory
and the exact representation of his being,
sustaining all things
by his powerful word.
After he had provided purification for sins,
he sat down at the right hand
of the Majesty in heaven.
So he became as much superior to the angels
as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.
(Hebrews 1:3-4 NIV)*

Jeremiah’s Confession

Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed,
    for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
    great is your faithfulness.
I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion;
    therefore I will wait for him.”
The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him,
    to the one who seeks him;
it is good to wait quietly
    for the salvation of the LORD.
It is good for a man to bear the yoke
    while he is young.
(Lamentations 3:22-27 NIV)*

Reading: Psalm 32:1-5

Of David. A maskil.

Blessed is the one
    whose transgressions are forgiven,
    whose sins are covered.
Blessed is the one
    whose sin the LORD does not count against them
    and in whose spirit is no deceit.
When I kept silent,
    my bones wasted away
    through my groaning all day long.
For day and night
    your hand was heavy on me;
my strength was sapped
    as in the heat of summer.
Then I acknowledged my sin to you
    and did not cover up my iniquity.
I said, “I will confess
    my transgressions to the Lord.”
And you forgave
    the guilt of my sin. (NIV) *

Taming the Tongue

When we put bits into the mouths of horses
to make them obey us,
we can turn the whole animal. 
Or take ships as an example.
Although they are so large
and are driven by strong winds,
they are steered by a very small rudder
wherever the pilot wants to go. 
Likewise,
the tongue is a small part of the body,
but it makes great boasts.
Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. 
The tongue also is a fire,
a world of evil among the parts of the body.
It corrupts the whole body,
sets the whole course of one’s life on fire,
and is itself set on fire by hell.
(James 3:3-6 NIV)*

Hearing the Good Shepherd

“I am the good shepherd; 
I know my sheep 
and my sheep know me—
just as the Father knows me
and I know the Father—
and I lay down my life for the sheep.
I have other sheep 
that are not of this sheep pen.
I must bring them also.
They too will listen to my voice,
and there shall be one flock 
and one shepherd.
The reason my Father loves me is
that I lay down my life—
only to take it up again.
No one takes it from me,
but I lay it down of my own accord. 
I have authority to lay it down
and authority to take it up again.
This command I received from my Father.”
(John 10:14-18 NIV)*
