30 July 2013 Tuesday Morning Prayer Opening Sentence The Lord is near; do not be anxious, but in everything make your requests known to God in prayer and petition with thanksgiving. Phil.4:5-6 Canticle The Time of God’s Favour Listen to me you islands: and hearken you peoples from afar. My servant, in the time of my favour I will answer you: and in the day of salvation I will help you to restore the land: and share out afresh its desolate fields; to say to the captives ‘Go free”: and to those in darkness, ‘Come forth into the light.’ They will feed beside the way: and find pasture on every barren hill. They will neither hunger nor thirst: nor will the desert heat nor the sun beat upon them, for the One who loves them will guide them: and lead them beside the springs of water. Shout for joy O heavens and exult O earth: break forth O mountains into song; for I the Lord will comfort my people: and will have compassion on my own in their distress. Isaiah 49:1,8-10,13 Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. AMEN Psalm 54 Save me, O God, by your name, and vindicate me by your might. Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth. For the insolent have risen against me, the ruthless seek my life; They do not set God before them. Selah But surely, God is my helper; The Lord is the upholder of my life. He will repay my enemies for their evil. In your faithfulness, put an end to them. With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you; I will give thanks to your name, O LORD, for it is good. For he has delivered me from every trouble, And my eye has looked in triumph on my enemies. Lesson James 3:17-4:8 But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without a trace of partiality or hypocrisy. And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace for those who make peace. Those conflicts and disputes among you, where do they come from? Do they not come from your cravings that are at war within you? You want something and do not have it; so you commit murder. And you covet something and cannot obtain it; so you engage in disputes and conflicts. You do not have, because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, in order to spend what you get on your pleasures. Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Prayer Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial, and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours, now and forever. AMEN Collect Remember, O Lord, what you have wrought in us and not what we deserve; and, as you have called us to your service, make us worthy of our calling; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. AMEN Grace The Lord bless us and preserve us both today and always. AMEN
