Memory Verse
 
Pray without ceasing.  -1 Thessalonians 5:17

 

Today's Suggested  Bible Reading

 1And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a
certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him,
 Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.
 
2 And he said unto them, When ye pray, say,
 Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.
 
3 Give us day by day  our daily bread.
 
 4 And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one
 that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation;
but deliver us from evil.  -Luke 11:1-4 

 

Today's Devotional Poem

 
When We Bow To Pray

More precious than the air we breathe
Needed throughout all hours each day,
Words lifted up to the One who hears…
Our hearts plea when we bow to pray.

Calling out with courage and trust…
Bowing before His feet ,I must.
Nothing is hidden from The Vine,
He knows all, sweet Saviour of mine.

He taught us to solemnly pray
Our cries known in Heaven above
We cling to Him, eternal stay
Faith prayers answered, saving Love.

Thank you, Everlasting Father.

Heavenly Father , help us realize that we can come
to You  anytime of the day in prayer and that
 You are  always with us through  the hard times 
 and the good times
Thank you for teaching us
 how to pray through your
precious Son Jesus Christ 
and for how to live our lives in the true way
that gives glory to you, dear  Lord.
 
 Amen .
