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

 Today’s Reading: Psalm 25:16-22

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

Lord Jesus,

help me to be open and transparent before you.
Take away all my sins.
My hope is in you.
Protect me from the attacks of the enemy.
Deliver me from all my troubles,
my gracious Savior.
Amen.

The Birth of Jesus

In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree
that a census should be taken
of the entire Roman world. 
(This was the first census that took place
while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) 
And everyone went to their own town to register.

So Joseph also went up
from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea,
to Bethlehem the town of David,
because he belonged to the house and line of David.
He went there to register with Mary,
who was pledged to be married to him
and was expecting a child.
While they were there,
the time came for the baby to be born,
and she gave birth to her firstborn,
a son.
She wrapped him in cloths
and placed him in a manger,
because there was no guest room available for them.
(Luke 2:1-7 NIV)*

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

 Today’s Reading: Psalm 25:8-15

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:


LORD God,
in humility I come before you.

Teach me your ways in every circumstance I face.
Lord Jesus,
you are my Good Shepherd.

Joseph Obeys the Angel’s Command

All this took place to fulfill
what the Lord had said through the prophet: 
“The virgin will conceive
and give birth to a son,
and they will call him Immanuel”
 (which means “God with us”).

When Joseph woke up,
he did what the angel of the Lord
had commanded him
and took Mary home as his wife. 
But he did not consummate their marriage
until she gave birth to a son.
And he gave him the name Jesus.
(Matthew 1:22-25 NIV)*
