Daily D – Matthew 5:3

by David Bowman | May 25, 2022 | Daily D | 0 comments

Matthew 5:3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”

—

Today is a good day to confess our spiritual poverty.

Today is a good day to grieve the death of innocents and wounds that will never go away.

Today is a day to pray, “your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven,” (Matthew 6:10).

Today is a day to pray, “And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil,” (Matthew 6:13).

Today is a good day to listen carefully to what God says to us in Isaiah 66:2 :

“These are the ones I look on with favor:
those who are humble and contrite in spirit,
and who tremble at my word.

Our world is a mess. Let us join God in cleaning it up.

—

I will confess my brokenness and poverty of spirit.

—

Our Father, I agree with you. I am broken and in need of repair. Only your grace is enough to fix me. I agree with you. This world is broken and in need of repair. Take me and use me in whatever manner you see fit to extend your kingdom rule and reign so that innocents are not murdered and survivors do not have to live with wounds that never heal. Deliver us from evil. Amen.

Daily D – 2 Kings 20:1-6

2 Kings 20:1-6 In those days Hezekiah became terminally ill. The prophet Isaiah son of Amoz came and said to him, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Set your house in order, for you are about to die; you will not recover.’”

Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the Lord, “Please, Lord, remember how I have walked before you faithfully and wholeheartedly and have done what pleases you.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.

Isaiah had not yet gone out of the inner courtyard when the word of the Lord came to him: “Go back and tell Hezekiah, the leader of my people, ‘This is what the Lord God of your ancestor David says: I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears. Look, I will heal you. On the third day from now you will go up to the Lord’s temple. I will add fifteen years to your life. I will rescue you and this city from the grasp of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for my sake and for the sake of my servant David.’”
