Day 247: Ezekiel 11-13; Psalm 76
by Jonathan Merki on September 3rd, 2024
Wherever we go, O Lord, You are a sanctuary for us. Whatever the reason for our going, even Your discipline, You are a safe and holy place for our retreat and refreshment (Ezekiel 11:16). Teach us, O Lord, to dwell in the sanctuary that is You. Give us that undivided heart You promised by Your Spirit (Ezekiel 11:19-20). Remove any stony remains, any hardness of heart toward the things You love and...  Read More

Day 246: Ezekiel 7-10; Psalm 75
by Jonathan Merki on September 2nd, 2024
The world in which we live is in for a devastating shock, O Lord, for the standard they use against everyone else, while excusing themselves, is the measure by which they shall be judged. That will be their eternal end. Help us, O Lord, not to be smug. For, though we have been declared not guilty in Your judgment through the blood of Christ applied, this is only by grace. Instead, may our hearts b...  Read More

Day 245: Ezekiel 4-6; Psalm 74
by Jonathan Merki on September 1st, 2024
In Your Word for today, we witness the truth that You do what You say. What Ezekiel prophesies, the psalm of Asaph records as a lament...it has happened. The greatest loss according to the song writer is not the city, but the sense of the presence of God: where are You? We miss You! Remind us today that while You keep Your promises to Your children, You also keep Your Word and bring judgment to th...  Read More

by Jonathan Merki on August 30th, 2024
Lord God, even when it seems that You have shut out our prayers (Lamentations 3:8), may we remember Your great faithfulness and daily 'new' mercies (3:22-23), and may we hold on to the hope (3:21) that will never disappoint us (Romans 5:5), for Your loyal love, Your steadfast love (3:22) pursues us to the end (Psalm 23:6)! What an awesome God we serve!...  Read More

Apologies for technical difficulties
by Walt Martin on August 30th, 2024
If you’re following along with the reading plan in the MCN Connections app, you likely did not get a prompt for Lamentations 1 yesterday and today’s screen was blank. This is due to a typo in the coding for the plan. I will try to adjust the code file and get things fixed, but for now, the reading for today is Lamentations 2-4 (and 1 if you missed it yesterday) and Psalm 72. Apologies again!...  Read More
