Prayed…
We worship You, Jesus
Setting aside all of the thoughts and plans, and we worship who You are
Your ways are higher, You are lifting us up, and there is no one like You
Thank You for Your presence and the power of Your Holy Spirit
We give You all the glory, honor, and praise today, Lord
You are so good, and so great
Hallelujah, You are so faithful
Scripture Focus…
But the end and culmination of all things has now come near; keep sound minded and self-restrained and alert therefore for [the practice of] prayer. Above all things have intense and unfailing love for one another, for love covers a multitude of sins [forgives and disregards the offenses of others].
(1 Peter 4:7–8 AMPC)
Likewise, you who are younger and of lesser rank, be subject to the elders (the ministers and spiritual guides of the church) – [giving them due respect and yielding to their counsel]. Clothe (apron) yourselves, all of you, with humility [as the garb of a servant, so that its covering cannot possibly be stripped from you, with freedom from pride and arrogance] toward one another. For God sets Himself against the proud (the insolent, the overbearing, the disdainful, the presumptuous, the boastful)- [and He opposes, frustrates, and defeats them], but gives grace (favor, blessing) to the humble. (6) Therefore humble yourselves [demote, lower yourselves in your own estimation] under the mighty hand of God, that in due time He may exalt you, (7) Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, fore He cares for your affectionately and cares about you watchfully. (8) Be well balanced (tolerate, sober of mind), be vigilant and cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a lion roaring [in fierce hunger], seeking someone to seize upon and devour. (9) Withstand him; be firm in faith [against his onset – rooted established, strong, immovable, and determined], knowing that the same (identical) sufferings are appointed to your brotherhood (the whole body of Christians) throughout the world.
(1 Peter 5:5–9 AMPC)
