Jesus’ Final Words to His Disciples

“A time is coming
and in fact has come
when you will be scattered,
each to your own home.
You will leave me all alone.
Yet I am not alone,
for my Father is with me.

“I have told you these things,
so that in me you may have peace.
In this world you will have trouble.
But take heart!
I have overcome the world.”
(John 16:32-33 NIV)*

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

 Today’s Reading: Psalm 31:6-8

LORD God,
thank you for your forgiveness.

Jesus Forgives His Executioners

Two other men,
both criminals,
were also led out with him to be executed.
When they came to the place called the Skull,
they crucified him there,
along with the criminals—
one on his right,
the other on his left.
Jesus said, 
“Father, forgive them,
for they do not know what they are doing.”
And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.
(Luke 23:32-34 NIV)*

I will praise the LORD!


Reading: Psalm 28:1-5

Of David.

To you, LORD, I call;
    you are my Rock,
    do not turn a deaf ear to me.
For if you remain silent,
    I will be like those who go down to the pit.
Hear my cry for mercy
    as I call to you for help,
as I lift up my hands
    toward your Most Holy Place.
Do not drag me away with the wicked,
with those who do evil,
who speak cordially with their neighbors
    but harbor malice in their hearts.
Repay them for their deeds
    and for their evil work;
repay them for what their hands have done
    and bring back on them what they deserve.
Because they have no regard for the deeds of the LORD
and what his hands have done,
he will tear them down
and never build them up again.

The Rock of Our Salvation

 Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD;
    let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.
Let us come before him with thanksgiving
    and extol him with music and song.
”For the LORD is the great God,
    the great King above all gods.
In his hand are the depths of the earth,
    and the mountain peaks belong to him.
The sea is his, for he made it,
    and his hands formed the dry land.

David Dances before the LORD

Now King David was told,
“The LORD has blessed the household of Obed-Edom
and everything he has,
because of the ark of God.”
So David went to bring up the ark of God
from the house of Obed-Edom
to the City of David with rejoicing.
When those who were carrying
the ark of the LORD had taken six steps,
he sacrificed a bull and a fattened calf. 
Wearing a linen ephod,
David was dancing before the LORD
 with all his might, 
while he and all Israel were bringing up the ark of the LORD
with shouts and the sound of trumpets.
(2 Samuel 6:12-15 NIV)*


May God bless you in 2026!

The LORD Who Heals You

There the LORD issued a ruling
and instruction for them
and put them to the test. 
He said,
“If you listen carefully to the LORD your God
and do what is right in his eyes,
if you pay attention to his commands
and keep all his decrees,
I will not bring on you any of the diseases
I brought on the Egyptians,
for I am the LORD, who heals you.”

The Peace of Christ

“All this I have spoken
while still with you.
But the Advocate,
the Holy Spirit,
whom the Father will send in my name,
will teach you all things

I have said to you.
Peace I leave with you;

Do not let your hearts be troubled

The promise of resurrection — photo by David Kitz


The Resurrection Body

Listen, I tell you a mystery:
We will not all sleep,
but we will all be changed— 
in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye,
at the last trumpet.
For the trumpet will sound,
the dead will be raised imperishable,
and we will be changed. 
For the perishable must clothe itself
with the imperishable,
and the mortal with immortality. 
When the perishable has been clothed
with the imperishable,
and the mortal with immortality,
then the saying that is written will come true:
“Death has been swallowed up in victory.”

“Where, O death, is your victory?
    Where, O death, is your sting?”

The sting of death is sin,
and the power of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God!
He gives us the victory
through our Lord Jesus Christ.
(1 Corinthians 15:51-57 NIV)*

May God bless you in 2026!

I will praise the LORD!


Reading: Psalm 27:7-14

Hear my voice when I call, LORD;
    be merciful to me and answer me.
My heart says of you, “Seek his face!”
    Your face, LORD, I will seek.
Do not hide your face from me,
    do not turn your servant away in anger;
    you have been my helper.
Do not reject me or forsake me,
    God my Savior.
Though my father and mother forsake me,
    the LORD will receive me.
Teach me your way, LORD;
    lead me in a straight path
    because of my oppressors.
Do not turn me over to the desire of my foes,
    for false witnesses rise up against me,
    spouting malicious accusations.
I remain confident of this:
    I will see the goodness of the LORD
    in the land of the living.
Wait for the LORD;
    be strong and take heart
    and wait for the LORD.

The New Jerusalem

I saw the Holy City,
the new Jerusalem,
coming down out of heaven from God,
prepared as a bride
beautifully dressed for her husband. 
And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying,
“Look!
God’s dwelling place is now among the people,
and he will dwell with them.
They will be his people,
and God himself will be with them
and be their God. 
‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes.
There will be no more death’
or mourning or crying or pain,
for the old order of things has passed away.”
(Revelation 21:2-4 NIV)*
