Morning Prayer for Sunday November 22/20 with Jonathan Clarke, National Director of Threshold Ministries

This Your Greatest Gift O God, who has proven Your love for all humanity by sending us Jesus Christ our Lord, and has illuminated our human life by the radiance of His presence, I give You thanks for this Your greatest gift. For my Lord’s days upon the earth: For the record of His deeds of love:... For the words he spoke for my guidance and help: For His obedience unto death: For His triumph over death: For the presence of His Spirit within me now: I thank you, O God. Grant that the remembrance of the blessed Life that once was lived out on this common earth under these ordinary skies may remain with me in all the tasks and duties of this day. Let me remember His eagerness, not to be ministered unto, but to minister: His sympathy with suffering of every kind: His bravery in the face of His own suffering: His meekness of bearing, so that, when reviled, He reviled not again: His steadiness of purpose in keeping to His appointed task: His simplicity: His self-discipline: His serenity of spirit: His complete reliance upon You, His Father in Heaven. And in each of these ways give me grace to follow in His footsteps. Amen. A Diary of Private Prayer John Baillie 1936, Oxford University Press

God of my forefathers, I cry unto You. You have been the refuge of good and wise people in every generation. When history began, You were the first enlightener of minds, and Yours was the Spirit that first led them out of their brutish estate and made them human. Through all the ages You have been the Lord and giver of life, the source of all knowledge, the fountain of all goodness. The patriarchs trusted You and were not put to shame: The prophets sought You and You committe...d Your word to their lips: The psalmists rejoiced in You and You were present in their songs: The apostles waited upon You and they were filled with Your Holy Spirit: The martyrs called upon You and You were with them in the midst of the flame: Forbid it. Holy Lord, that I should fail to profit by these great memories of the ages that are gone by, or to enter into the glorious inheritance which You have prepared for me; through Jesus Christ my Lord. Amen. A Diary of Private Prayer John Baillie 1936, Oxford University Press

Evening Prayer for Wednesday September 16/20

I apologize I am unable to post a morning devotion this morning but I will post an evening prayer at 7:30 this evening. Your Waiting Presence Almighty and eternal God, You are hidden from my sight: You are beyond the understanding of my mind:... Your thoughts are not as my thoughts: Your ways are past finding out. Yet You have breathed Your Spirit into my life: Yet You have formed my mind to seek You: Yet You have inclined my heart to love You: Yet You have made me restless for the rest that is in You: Yet You have planted within me a hunger and thirst that make me dissatisfied with all the joys of earth. O You who alone know what lies before me this day, grant that in every hour of it I may stay close to You. Let me be in the world, yet not of it. Let me use this world without abusing it. If I buy, let me be as though I possessed not. If I have nothing, let me be as though possessing all things. Let me today embark on no undertaking that is not in line with Your will for my life, nor shrink from any sacrifice which Your will may demand. Suggest, direct, control every movement of my mind; for my Lord Christs sake. Amen. A Diary of Private Prayer John Baillie 1936, Oxford University Press See more
