Day 216: Isaiah 42-44; Psalm 45
by Jonathan Merki on August 3rd, 2024
I sat by him on the airplane, one of Your chosen people so devoted to the rituals of his religion, so confident that he alone was right and everyone else wrong. I did not argue with him, that was futility, but did my best to be gracious and show Yeshua...and I prayed for him, for his soul to be set free from pharisaical rules and regulations so he could have a relationship with the God he said he ...  Read More

Because You have been our Comforter, tenderly caring for us; because You, our Shepherd, have tended us with loving kindness; because You, Great Creator, have reminded us of Your great love for us from the beginning; so it is that we wait upon You, we place our hope in You, we rest in Your great grace, for we know we shall rise up on eagle's wings.

And now, O Lord, the day is done. Yet once more You have brought us through the day. You have met our needs, guided our steps, given us grace-filled encounters and reminded us in our challenges that You were there. As through the day, now we ask that Your presence will keep us in our rest. May it bring us refreshment and by Your grace, may we awaken to a new day filled with the possibility of serv...  Read More

by Jonathan Merki on July 29th, 2024
O God, Your are our Help from ages past, for You have lifted us up from the pit of our own creation, of our sin and shame. You have set our feet on the Solid Rock, Who is Jesus, the Rock of our salvation. You have heard our cries and answered our prayers. Not only that, You are our Hope for years to come, for one day You will indeed swallow up death (in reality You have through Jesus' resurrection...  Read More
