Lenten Prayer The God of the Covenant

-

Losenko, Anton Pavlovich, 1737-1773
Ten Commadments of Moses

God of the covenant,
in the glory of the cross
your Son embraced the power of death
and broke its hold over your people.
In this time of repentance,
draw all people to yourself,
that we who confess Jesus as Lord
may put aside the deeds of death
and accept the life of your kingdom. Amen.

Bless Those Who Curse Us

Here are five reasons why we should bless those who curse us. 1. This is the way of a Jesus revolutionary, emulating the example of our Father. The Sermon on the Mount is a counterculture, kingdom manifesto where Jesus calls us to live by different principles than the world and religious establishment) live by. And in the Sermon on the Mount, he gave this explicit command: “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you” ( When we do this, we are emulating God himself, who “causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous” (Matt 5:45). This is part of our calling to “be perfect” as our heavenly Father is perfect (Matt 5:48). 2. God demonstrates extraordinary longsuffering towards those who walk in ignorance and unbelief . A few years ago, there was an atheist-inspired internet sensation featuring thousands of people who recorde...

A prayer for our earth by Pope Francis  All-powerful God, you are present in the whole universe and in the smallest of your creatures. You embrace with your tenderness all that exists. Pour out upon us the power of your love, that we may protect life and beauty. Fill us with peace, that we may live as brothers and sisters, harming no one. O God of the poor, help us to rescue the abandoned and forgotten of this earth, so precious in your eyes. Bring healing to our lives, that we may protect the world and not prey on it, that we may sow beauty, not pollution and destruction. Touch the hearts of those who look only for gain at the expense of the poor and the earth. Teach us to discover the worth of each thing, to be filled with awe and contemplation, to recognize that we are profoundly united with every creature as we journey towards your infinite light. We thank you for being with us each day. Encourage us, we pray, in our struggle for justice, love and peac...

Colorado Fires 'Like Armageddon' By Trevor Freeze http://www.billygraham.org/articlepage.asp?articleid=8793 Chaplains Encourage Those Struggling With Fire Fallout July 10, 2012 - Unlike hurricanes and tornadoes, there is no finality to a wildfire. Billy Graham Rapid Response Team chaplains have been ministering in this highly unpredictable disaster aftermath, where the Lord has been bringing people back to Him.   "That's God's hand on His people because He's not willing for one to be lost." — Pat Geyer, RRT chaplain in Colorado Springs Natural disasters come in all shapes, sizes and impacts.

Thou shalt be visited of the LORD of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake , and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire. Isaiah 29:6   And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake:   And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice. 1 Kings 19:11-12 The words of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.   Amos 1:1-2 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before...

Blow the trumpet in Zion;  sound the alarm on my holy mountain!  Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble,  for the day of the Lord is coming, it is near,  a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and thick darkness!  Like blackness there is spread upon the mountains a great and powerful people;   their like has never been from of old,  nor will be again after them through the years of all generations. Fire devours before them,   and behind them a flame burns.  T he land is like the garden of Eden before them,  but after them a desolate wilderness,   and nothing escapes them. Their appearance is like the appearance of horses,   and like war horses they run.   As with the rumbling of chariots,   they leap on the tops of the mountains,  like the crackling of a flame of fire devouring the stubble,  l ike a powerful army ...
