Morning Prayer for February 20
My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
God’s Word
He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied
Today’s takeaway: Jesus finished His work on the cross, and He is satisfied with the people He saved.
Jesus … said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
He hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, According to the eternal purpose which … purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord
That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
After that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
Ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light
Prayer
Lord Jesus, You saw the travail of Your soul and were satisfied. On the cross You said, It is finished. You were made sin for me so I could be made righteous in You. The Father formed a people for Himself to show His praise, and I am one of them. Let me live today as the fruit of Your finished work. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Pray as Jesus taught us
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
Amen.
Blessing
The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
