Day 287: Matthew 15-17; Psalm 116
by Jonathan Merki on October 13th, 2024
O Lord, our God and Father, thank You that You have chosen to reveal Yourself to us in Christ Jesus. Today, open our eyes to see Who You Are and who we are in You. As we gather for worship, may Your Word come alive to us, our understanding deepen, and our lives grow more to reflect You all because of Jesus. In His Name we ask this. Amen.... Read More

Day 286: Matthew 13-14; Psalm 115
by Jonathan Merki on October 12th, 2024
Today, Father, may our faith in You be strong. And, should we waiver, let us not be like the people of Your hometown, Lord Jesus. They saw no miracles because of their cynical unbelief. No, rather, let us be like the man with the son possessed who said, "Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief." For we know that You honor faith the size of a mustard seed, and without faith, it is impossible to please Yo... Read More

Day 285: Matthew 10-12; Psalm 114
by Jonathan Merki on October 11th, 2024
Father, we are tired. We have come at the invitation of Jesus to find rest. In our physical rest, may we find refreshment for body and soul. For, while we sleep, You do not. And, as You sing over us with joy as we rest in Your mighty arms, may we also rise with new strength in the morning to carry out Your mission, Your purpose through our lives. This we ask in Jesus' Name and for His sake. Amen!... Read More

by Jonathan Merki on October 10th, 2024
Sometimes our approach to You is like that of the leper: "Lord, if You are willing..." Your response to him almost catches us off guard: "I AM willing..." Why would we wonder about Your desire to meet us at our point of deepest need? Help us to see ourselves as Your image-bearers. Help us to understand Your perfect, loving care for us. Help us to see ourselves as You do. Help us to trust Your answ... Read More

Day 283: Matthew 5-7; Psalm 112
by Jonathan Merki on October 9th, 2024
You, Lord Jesus, have taught us to pray to our Abba Father that His Kingdom may come here and now (Matthew 6:9-13). Then You called us to seek that Kingdom first and always (Matthew 6:33). Today may we be all about Your Kingdom in every way and may Your Kingdom be evident in us, for You are our Lord, our Sovereign, our Savior.... Read More

Day 282: Matthew 1-4; Psalm 111
by Jonathan Merki on October 8th, 2024
Jesus, Your ancestry.com is right in front of everyone...it is there for the world to see. Truly, it is beyond comprehension that You, our Creator and our Lord should become one of us. And, look at Your family tree! Grace. Grace. Marvelous, matchless, infinite grace. Grace that pardons and cleanses, that redeems and restores, that raises up and gives significance, that invites into partnership and... Read More
