June 14: Sunday Devotions

Sunday Morning – June 14

Good Morning Lord!

To remember your baptism, make the sign of the cross and say, “In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”

 

Psalm Verse for Worship

I was glad when they said to me, "Let us go to the house of the LORD!" (Ps. 122:1 ESV)

 

Prayer

The First Petition: “Hallowed be Thy name.”

O God, Your name is holy in and of itself, but we ask that it would be honored and kept holy by us. Help us, dear Father in heaven, to do this! Let your Word be taught in truth and purity, and help us, Your children, to live our lives according to it; through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord. Amen.

 

Luther’s Morning Prayer

I thank You, my heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, Your dear Son, that You have kept me this night from all harm and danger; and I pray that You would keep me this day also from sin and every evil, that all my doings and life may please You. For into Your hands I commend myself, my body and soul, and all things. Let Your holy angel be with me, that the evil foe may have no power over me. Amen.

 

You can watch Gloria Dei’s worship service here.

 

You can listen to today’s sermon here.

 

Taking some time off from writing and recording. Return July 1. Started doing this during the shut-down. I enjoy the writing and recording – and I like to think these are helpful. I want to finish the Ten Commandments in the evening devotions, after that I’m going to re-evaluate the whole morning & evening devotions.

 

Sunday Evening

Good Evening Lord!

Wondrously show Your steadfast love, O Savior of those who seek refuge from their adversaries at Your right hand. Keep me as the apple of Your eye; hide me in the shadow of Your wings, (Ps. 17:7-8 ESV)

 

Meditation on Worship

Use the I.T.C.P. formula to think about / discuss the worship service.

Instruction:      What did I learn? What were the lessons / sermon about?

Thanksgiving:             What am I thankful for?

Confession:     With what sin was I confronted? Was I comforted with God’s forgiveness? How?

Petition:          What did we pray about? Who did we pray for?

 

Prayer

Pray for the people on Sunday’s Prayer List in the bulletin.

Pray about your own thoughts and requests.

 

Luther’s Evening Prayer

I thank You, my heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, Your dear Son, that You have graciously kept me this day; and I pray that You would forgive my sins where I have done wrong, and graciously keep me this night. For into Your hands I commend myself, my body and soul, and all things. Let Your holy angel be with me, that the evil foe may have no power over me. Amen.
