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 – Jonah 4:1-3

Jonah 4:1-3 Jonah was greatly displeased and became furious. He prayed to the Lord, “Please, Lord, isn’t this what I said while I was still in my own country? That’s why I fled toward Tarshish in the first place. I knew that you are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger, abounding in faithful love, and one who relents from sending disaster. And now, Lord, take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”

Daily D – Psalm 128:1-4

Psalm 128:1-4

How happy is everyone who fears the LORD,
who walks in his ways!
You will surely eat
what your hands have worked for.
You will be happy,
and it will go well for you.
Your wife will be like a fruitful vine
within your house,
your children, like young olive trees
around your table.
In this very way
the man who fears the LORD
will be blessed.
