1 Prayer: Thank You, Father, for establishing Your eternal rule and reign upon the foundation of perfect justice and righteousness.

Psalm 96

1 Passage: Psalm 96

1 Verse: Verse 13. Before the LORD, for He is coming, For He is coming to judge the earth He will judge the world in righteousness And the peoples in His faithfulness.

1 Prayer: Father, You alone in all the world are the righteous Judge of all peoples. You alone see all and know all. Please forgive me for trying to judge others for myself, without all the facts and without all the righteousness. You will faithfully administer justice when You come. For now, we do the best we can, but far from much that is good and lasting and meaningful. But, Father, despite all that, please help us to lovingly and courageously and wisely uphold Your truth without judging and condemning those who deny it.

Tomorrow's passage: Psalm 97

Psalm 95:7b-11

1 Passage: Psalm 95:7b-11

1 Verse: Verse 8. Do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah, as in the day of Massah in the wilderness

1 Prayer: Father, I would like to hear Your voice today. But if I would . . . I must not harden my heart. Please help me keep a tender heart before You today. Even if I go wandering in the wilderness, even when I find myself at a place of strife or in a time of temptation, I will keep a gentle, humble heart. Of course, that means my poor soft heart will hurt all the more. But if it also means I will get to hear Your voice, then it will all be worth it.

1 Passage: Psalm 95:3-5

1 Verse: Verse 6. Come, let us worship and bow down, let us kneel before the LORD our Maker.

1 Prayer: Thank You, Father, for making me. I'd rather be than not be, though sometimes I'd rather not be me. I fear I've made quite a mess of what You have made for Yourself. But I'm grateful You still want me to come to You to worship and bow down. Perhaps I haven't made so little of myself. Perhaps You would make more of me than I would. Please help me, Father. Make me over again. Make me more like You.
