30th Nisan Friday 24th April We come into the closing day of Nisan and give a double portion of thanks and praise. If, like me, this has been a real 'vale of tears' time, then I pray for God's blessings upon your day and way. Psalm 30 v5 says, "Tears may linger at nightfall, but joy comes in the morning.' May the veil of your vale of tears be parted, and may the light of the living Christ come shining through, in Jesus's name. Consuming Fire Jesus, I Need You 1 John 2 v18:25 Study here. Isaiah 3 v8:15 Heavenly Father, we thank you for this time of praise and worship. We thank You for all that You have done for us during this time, things both seen and unseen. We thank You for the opportunity to praise You, we thank You for the place, the lights, the laptops or devices, the connections, the life, the blessings. And we thank You, Lord, for the challenges too. You are making a way for us to travel that brings us ever closer to You, and even the Devil can only do Your bidding in the journeys of Your elect, as only with Job did you give permission otherwise. You have started a work, and You will see it through. Dear Lord, we lift hands to You today in hope and hunger for more of You. We lay down our very lives before You in hope and hunger for less of us. You hear our prayer, dear Lord, may no power of Hell hinder Your reply. In Jesus's mighty name we pray. Amen. Father's Heart Shabbat Ain't Gonna Wait On Me 29th Nisan Thursday 23rd April Lord, I Lift Your Name On High The Steadfast Love Of The Lord Never Ceases Acts 15 v28:32 O God Almighty, who lives forever, Adonai. You do not change. Your nature or intent, Your essential self is always the same. Give us grace and understanding, therefore, to navigate the truth as to where we are in relationship to You. How well do our ways align themselves with You? For Your Kingdom? Show us, Lord, through companionship and fellowship, through Your word, through the example of Your Son, Jesus, the Christ. We need You, Lord. You do not need us. Yet You have expressed a yearning, a desire a sacrifice that we may be in relationship with You, and it is in this, through Your death and resurrection on the Cross, that we ask this thing in prayer. In Jesus's name, amen. When I Look Into Your Holiness Let Us Adore 28th Nisan Wednesday 22nd April Here For You We Wait For You Zechariah 4 v11:14 Who are we that You are mindful of us, Lord God of Israel, Maker of the Heavens and the Earth? Lost in our anger, our pride, our vanity, our shame? Resentful and blasphemous towards You. Partakers in the murder of Your One and only Son. How our ambition has blinded us. How our inflated egos cause us to walk as if if Your life bears no matter. We are wretches, Lord! We are less than worms before You! We are not fit to tie Your bootlaces. O Lord! Help us! Help us humble ourselves before You. Help us see, feel and know the truth, that You are who You say You are and we are but dust before You. Take our cup, Lord, and fill us up again. We look to You and lift our hands and hearts toward You, King of Heaven, Maker of the Heavens and the Earth, Mighty God, amen. Fill Me Up And Overflow ?Be Thou My Vision 27th Nisan Tuesday 21st April Continuing on with a double portion of praise for the month of Nisan. All glory to God! Draw Me Close To You Float 2 Thessalonians 2 v1:12 Yes, Lord of Hosts, when the Dark One rises up we know we need to rely on everything that You have given us to overcome. It is by Your provision, it is by Your grace that we have been saved. Nothing that we have done could ever justify our salvation, our portion is with the eternal because You have made it so. Thank You, Lord, thank You for Your Son, Jesus, thank You for the power and authority of the Holy Spirit that confirms this. You have veiled our wicked sins, when the time is complete, You will place them as far away from us as east is from the west. Awesome God, Mighty God, we find and make our refuge in You, in Jesus's mighty name, amen. Peculiar People Comfort Ye 26th Nisan Monday 20th April As The Deer Holy Is The Lamb John 17 v1:8 How You prayed, Lord. How You laid down Your life, how You received from the Father, how You blessed the whole earth. Lord we lift up a prayer of thanks. For who You are, for what You have done, for the skills and dreams that You have given us. Help us commit all that we are to You, Jesus Messiah, as You committed everything You were to us. Thank You, Prince of Peace, thank You, whose name is Wonderful, thank You, whose name is Counsellor. Hosanna! Glory Hallelujah! Jesus is the Christ, amen! Trust And Obey The Steadfast Love Of The Lord Never Ceases 25th Nisan Sunday 19th April Jesus, I Believe In You I Surrender All Amos 7, 8, 9 Lord God of Israel, Your path is straight and true, Your line goes throughout the earth. Today, Lord, we beg of You to show us the right way, to guide us on the right path for Your name's sake. Rebuke us, correct us if necessary, do not let the Devil have dominion over us. Lord, reveal to us clearly all that hinders our correct walking with You, that we might tear down strongholds and break the chains that bind us. Make us ever vigilant to Your cause, teach us the words needed to overcome every obstacle. Your ultimate plan is for the gathering of Your children, a message of hope and salvation, an expression of Your amazing love. Lead us on, King of Heaven, we pray, in the name of Jesus, Your Son, who at once is You and of You, for Your glory, amen. Holy Are You Lord I've Found A Love 24th Nisan Saturday 18th April Consuming Fire Holy Spirit Romans 8 v37:39 Overcome us, consume us, Holy Spirit come and take us over, be our light and guide, less of us and more of You, please. You were sent by the Father, exactly as the Son said You would be. You, who hovered over prophets and kings in days of old, now multiplied and poured out over all of mankind. Welcome, Lord, please, make free in us to our uttermost parts. Search us, guide us, lift us. Show us the way we should go. Cast out the things of darkness and the Devil. Not for our glory, reward or profit, but for the Father's. Bless through us that He may be blessed. Thank You, Holy Spirit of God, great are Your works throughout all the world. Pour out Yourself by filling these redeemed vessels, by overflowing into the driest of deserts, in Jesus's name, forever, amen. Consuming Fire Welcome Holy Spirit 23rd Nisan Friday 17th April Continuing on with a double portion of praise for the month of Nisan. All glory to God! Where You Are Like Oil James 2 v14:22 Where You are, Lord. Doing the things that please You. Sharing with You and others who want to do the same. What a promise, what a hope, what a dream. To be lifted above the corruption and the discord. To be pain and curse free. O Lord God of Israel, Maker of the Heavens and the Earth, Your ways are higher, Your thoughts are deeper. Lift us to You, as we trust in who You are and what You have done, are doing and will do in our lives. Make our faces shine like Moses' that those around us will know it, that You are our heart's desire, that only in You do we find peace and satisfaction away from the troubles of this dark world. O God, who lives forever, You satisfy the calling of our soul. In Jesus's name we pray, amen. Yield My Heart Father's Heart 22nd Nisan Thursday 16th April Theme -> Passover / Resurrection As we close this week of remembrance and celebration we recognise and give thanks for the unique double portion of a double portion of Your blessing. For the first fruits of harvest. For the release of captivity from Egypt. For the Son risen from the grave. For the continued and ongoing outworking of Your matchless grace, in Your work of salvation. Who else gives so much for so little? Who else would consider so little as so much? Thank You, Father, thank You, Son, thank You, Holy Spirit. Amen. Wonderful Grace Of Jesus Jesucristo Basta Jeremiah 23 v1:6 Colossians 4 v16:18 O Lord, how we look forward to our continued journey, with You and to You. Your dwelling place is our destination, with all the places prior being places we are passing through. Thank You, Lord, for making a way, thank You for letting us and calling us to follow. Today, Lord, we also give thanks for those who have gone before, both named and unnamed, carrying the light of the gospel. A line unbroken over thousands of years. A line littered with suffering and overcoming, laughter and precious tears. You will see the persecutors punished and the mockers downcast, yet You, being You, will also relent if they turn from their wicked path. Help us, too, carry Your light and Your name into the distant future, with thanksgiving and praise, in Jesus's mighty name, amen. Muestrame Tu Gloria Waymaker 21st Nisan Wednesday 15th April We are lifting a double portion of praise throughout the month of Nisan and a double portion of worship during Passover. We even lifted a double portion of the double portion for the Resurrection celebration of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ! Two one one becomes eight four four! Theme -> Passover / Resurrection Thank You Lord for our continuing journey. As long as we remain faithful and true to You, the destination is set, the end is one of joyous overcoming and continuous declaration of Your goodness in all of creation. Amazing grace, mighty God, author and finisher of all our works. Amen. Glory hallelujah, amen. Fill My Cup, Lord ?My Redeemer Lives Joshua 8 v9:13 Revelation 21 v22:27 Jesus, You made a way for me. You made a way for the whole world. A way that satisfies. A way that connects us with a loving relationship with the Father. He never grows tired or weary. He is never elsewhere, because He is everywhere. He listens to our every cry, catches our every teardrop and has counted the very hairs of our head. What more compassion is there than this? That He would send His Son, to ransom me from certain death? Today I give my life to You. Today, or for the first time, it matters not to You. You are just happy to have us home. Thank You, Lord, thank You, dear Father. Who is like You in all of creation? Amen. Jesus, I Believe In You Hosanna 20th Nisan Tuesday 14th April Theme -> Passover / Resurrection Punishment / Crucifixion ? What better news can we receive of, Father? That You are risen, that You have overcome sin and the grave? Our hope is to hear those words, "Well done, my good and faithful servant." Keep us to it, lord, hard to it where necessary, help us follow the narrow path, in Jesus's name. Amen. O Happy Day Eagle's Wings Romans 7 v13:25 Romans 8 v1:11 O to be lifted, to be held, to be loved, to be saved. Who have we in this life, but You? Lord of Lords and King of Kings. Adonai. Yeshua. Messiah. Matchless Lord of Grace, Heaven's light. Whom the Son sets free is free indeed. Yet, Lord, we know that there are movements, cults, that speak words as if they are from You, when the evidence is that they are not. Lord we pray for the overwhelming of defences and the opening of eyes. Your grace is sufficient, only You alone have the power to save. Let the doctrines of demons be exposed in the lives of those we care about, not that we would gain authority but You, Jesus, and You alone. It is a cruel work of the Deceiver to treat people so, and we pray for the undoing of his works in the name of Christ Jesus, by the blood of Christ Jesus and by the power of His Holy Spirit, amen. Our God Reigns Here This Is How We Overcome 19th Nisan Monday 13th April Theme -> Passover / Resurrection Yes, Lord we continue the journey, now in celebration of Your risen self. The leaven has come. The King is alive. Hosanna! Glory hallelujah! We worship You, Lord, amen. Go Down, Moses Nothing Is Impossible 1 Corinthians 7 v17:24 Psalm 73 Yes Lord, today we join You on Your victory march. You have won authority over all the earth, You have wrestled it back from Satan. You have returned with it back to Your Father's house. Dear Lord, what a price You have paid. What a victory You have won. You have opened a way for all peoples, of every tribe, race and tongue, to come to You as You first intended, as sons and daughters, as priests, as disciples, as partakers, as princes and princesses, as children of the Most High. Let us not be jealous of other people, and the walk that they have away from You. Rather, let us set an example and a light for others in living and rejoicing in the goodness of our God. Not that we may be seen as better, but that You Lord may be seen as the right and righteous way. All this we pray in the wonderful and matchless name of Jesus, our risen Lord, amen. Holding Nothing Back Let My Life Be Like A Lovesong 18th Nisan Sunday 12th April Theme -> Passover / Resurrection The Resurrection of Jesus A double portion of the double portion! Today, Lord, we lift a joyous noise of celebration and praise. Sin was defeated at the Cross, death was defeated at the empty tomb. Shepherd of our hearts, welcome home, amen. Shepherd Faithful One Luke 19 v36:41 Psalm 107 v36:43 Blessed be Your name, O Lord. Yesu, Yeshua, Jesus, Isa. However we say it, it is still blessed. Wherever we declare it, Satan must flee. Name above all names, Prince of Peace we say and praise Your name today. Amen. Jesus! Amen. This Is Amazing Grace Amazing Grace Revelation 14 v13:16 Proverbs 30 v4:9 Heavenly Father we offer up sacrifices of praise and worship. We read the scriptures to learn and know more of You, we receive of Your glory, day by day, and, most amazing of all, You go with us. Walking, when we follow, talking when we would listen,and forgiving when we would forgive. Amazing grace, amazing Lord, what can we do but pray for Your love to be received so by others? Of those of other faiths and religions? Of those lost in the miry clay of this uncertain life? Your scripture says that there is a way that seems right to a man that leads to destruction. Today we pray for people, our friends, our relatives, our enemies, those we know and those we do not. If they are on the wider way, Lord, please pull them off it. Your Gospel of peace is really that good. In Jesus's name we pray this, for Your glory and the coming of Your Kingdom upon the earth. Amen. I Need Thee Every Hour He Is Risen O Lord, in closing prayer for this special day, we ask that You go before us, to the left of us, to the right of us, above and below. You are the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings, let Your way be our way, let us align ourselves with You, Yours is the cleansing flow, Yours is the blood spilled that we may have new life, You are the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, and we want to walk with You. Help us live the life that You intended, in Jesus's mighty name. Amen. At The Cross Take Me In To The Holy Of Holies 17th Nisan Saturday 11th April We are lifting a double portion of praise throughout the month of Nisan and a double portion of worship in the approach to Passover. We will then lift a double portion of the double portion for the Resurrection celebration of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ! Theme -> Passover / Resurrection A night and a day in the tomb. A Sabbath rest like no other. You, Jesus, paid it all. In this day, over two thousand years ago by our reckoning, You rested in death. No movement, both within and without, in the streets of Jerusalem, in the heavenlies, in the world. We owe it all to You, Lord of Lords and King of Kings. You fulfilled all hope and prophecy, You will come again. Glory hallelujah! Hosanna! Amen! O Holy Night El Shaddai John 14 v1:6 John 1 v1:5 We do not know, Lord. We cannot see. Even those close to You at the time of Your death had fallen away at this time. Was there a battle in the grave? Were the hosts of Hell being defeated? Or were You at rest, fulfilling the prophecy and content in Your victory? Did You know? Could You see? Whatever the truth of it, we press today into Your Sabbath rest. A time of peace. A time of reflection, a time of seeking You, our God. Through Your Word, written, spoken and breathed through Your Holy Spirit. You have gone to prepare a place. You made this sacrifice once and for all. You will neither leave us nor forsake us. King of Heaven be with Your people today, live in us us, teach us, guide us. Give us words to say, inspire us with insight and understanding, show Yourself in deed and wonder, to the overcoming of Satan and the doubts, dreams and fears that He has sewn into the world. Help us, Lord God, to represent You. Help us to point others to the truth alone. In Your name we pray, Jesus, for the glory of the Father You glorified, for the coming of the Kingdom that you are preparing, in the assured hope of the fulfilment of all things to come. Amen. Glory hallelujah! Amen! My Shepherd The Good Shepherd 16th Nisan Friday 9th April Theme -> Passover / Resurrection Punishment / Crucifixion ? O Lord, today we share a prayer for You. In Your suffering, in Your sacrifice, in Your steadfastness, in Your grace. Over two thousand years ago, You poured it out unto death for a world undeserving of such a gift of mercy. No other act in all of creation can compare to this. There is nothing that we can measure such love against. Thank You, dear Lord, thank You, beautiful Saviour, thank You, Jesus of Nazareth. Amen. How Great Thou Art In The Garden Isaiah 24 v1:12 1 Corinthians 15 v51:58 The truth and the promise. The blood of the Passover was painted with bitter herbs. Suffering must come, if but for a time. We cannot have new life without death, without dying to self. This is the promise of God, "That He sent His only begotten Son, that whosoever would believe on Him shall not perish, but receive from him eternal life." This is the path we tread upon, the life we call for, the hope, the way. When the path crumbles and our strength fails, You will uphold us. Not by strength, not by might but by Your Holy Spirit. We need You, Lord. Today we call to You and trust in Your promise, that tears may linger at nightfall, but joy comes in the morning. If all we have in this world is You, then that, we declare, is enough. Whilst we pray for others to come, we cannot call or bring if we are not through ourselves. In the precious name of Jesus we pray, commit and declare, for Your glory, God of Heaven, and for the coming of Your Kingdom upon the earth. Amen. Healer Be Thou My Vision 15th Nisan Thursday 9th April Theme -> Passover / Resurrection Passover O Lord, how You sat down and shared Your last meal with Your disciples, how You humbled Yourself to wash their feet, how You broke the bread and drank from the cup as an example to all of us. You knew where You were going, You knew what was to come, yet Your warmth and love burned as a holy fire towards those who had followed You. Blessed Lord, blessed Saviour, thank You for all that You have done. Amen. 10,000 Reasons Rock Of Ages John 3 v16 Psalm 27 v12:13 O my soul! O my life! What did ever do that could deserve such faith, such love, such sacrifice? Sin, only sin, a vile state I was born in and given wholly over to. Yet the Lord heard from Heaven. He knew from the beginning, all things that would come to pass, all that was necessary for redress and resolution. He alone could set the captives free, He alone could open a way that all could follow. The cost was dear, the ransom too high for mortal man to pay, a price so great that only the life of one so beloved of Heaven could pay it. What a God, what a Saviour! Emancipator, Blessed Lord. A sacrifice for once and for all, a road first travelled by feet pierced by nails of steel. Mighty God, Saviour Jesus, You opened a way with Your blood, You paid the debt in full with Your broken body. All Heaven would roar in indignation, yet You would bid them silence as You unfolded Your greatest work. Not in splendour, not in majesty, but in humility and silence, with regard for all, near and far. Blessed Lord, blessed Saviour, thank You for all that You do. Amen. O Come, O Come Emmanuel Praise, My Soul, The King Of Heaven 14th Nisan Wednesday 8th April Theme -> Passover / Resurrection Heaviness, Lord. A spiritual heaviness as we walk with You towards the day of Your death. The Israelites under the heavy burden of the plagues so far poured out on Egypt, the strain of the slaver's leash biting at its hardest. O Lord. You have carried the Cross and paid the price. Let us not hold on, but surrender all to You, Mighty God, Blessed Father, Spotless Son. Amen. Hallowed Be Thy Name/ I Stand In Awe Of You Psalm 23 1 Samuel 16 v1:13 Study here. O, Lord! Great are You among the nations, far and above all other powers and gods. You appoint kings and cast them down, You formed the Heavens and the Earth and hold our lives in the palm of Your hands. Who is like You, Mighty God? Today we are overwhelmed yet, through the sacrifice of Your Son, Jesus, we are not, and never can be, overcome. He who slept in the stern of a storm tossed boat. He who calmed the waters with a word. He who healed the sick and caused the dead to rise. He who made the blind see and the deaf hear. By His stripes we are healed. He will raise us up on the last day, He will renew our strength and refresh our youth. Life Giver, Truth Speaker, He committed His Holy Spirit to You that You may send it out over all of the earth. Now You dwell within each of us. Remind us of what You have done, awaken us to the purposes that You have called us for, and we will rise up again to stand, as children of the Most High, as a royal priesthood sent to declare the Word to the ends of the earth. For Your Kingdom, for Your glory alone, in Jesus's name, amen. Healer This Is Amazing Grace 13th Nisan Tuesday 7th April We are lifting a double portion of praise throughout the month of Nisan and a double portion of worship in the approach to Passover. We will then lift a double portion of the double portion for the Resurrection celebration of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ! Theme -> Passover / Resurrection A prayer for Your children across the globe. You know where each one of them is, you have numbered the hairs on their head, You have insured their right of passage into the eternal splendour. Yet, Lord, we petition You for providence and plenty, as You provide us with the same. May Your hand, may Your blessing be upon them, in Jesus's name. Amen. Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour I Need Thee Every Hour ?Daniel 7 v15:27 Revelation 22 v6:11 Lord of Lords and King of Kings, You are our Rock in times of trouble. In dark and heavy, heaving seas, You are the anchor to which we hold. Thank You for being our steadfast hope, that the unmerited favour that You have apportioned to those who would call upon and profess Your name, to those who accept Your Son, Jesus, as Lord and Saviour, is enough to hold us fast and certain, for all time. As we navigate these stormy seas, we know that You go with us, before us and behind, above and below, and to each and every side. If You are for us, what can stand against? This, too, is how You navigated the approach to Your certain punishment and death on the Cross. You sweat drops of blood for those You loved, You accepted the cup of Righteous Wrath that was set aside for us. Thank You, Lord, thank You. Words are not enough. Praises will fall short, our every deed is vanity before You. Yet, thanks be to You all the same. Mighty God, Awesome God, thank you, in Jesus's name, amen. Faithful One Days Of Elijah 12th Nisan Monday 6th April Theme -> Passover / Resurrection A prayer for the front line workers, both seen and unseen. In our hospitals, stores, essential services, may You be with them Lord. Strengthen them, refresh them, let them know that they are appreciated and loved. In Jesus's precious name, amen. ?This Is The Day As For Me And My House Hosea 2 v1:9 Numbers 17 v1:8 Praises to Your Name, Lord of Lords and King of Kings. Today we raise a prayer for our leaders. Our elders in the church, the captains of industry, the royalty, the politicians and elected officials. None can rule without Your authority, none can come to power without Your say so. We pray for them to align themselves with You. We pray against all that influences them which is not of You. To represent the people in faith and truth. To commend themselves to selfless toil, in sharing their table with those in need. And where they do not, O Lord, we trust You will also give them their end. It is not for us to condemn. Your ways are higher, and those in receipt of blessing must be mindful of its true source. Keep our ways and days and, as You lead us towards that great day of redemption, bless us with Your love. In Jesus's name, amen. ?Creation Is Awaiting Jesus Paid it All 11th Nisan Sunday 5th April Theme -> Passover / Resurrection A prayer for the poor, Lord. The sick, the lost, the lonely, the afraid, the betrayed. Your heart goes with them, Lord, may Your angels robe around, be their peace and their guide, in Jesus's name. Amen. Faithful One ?O The Deep, Deep Love Of Jesus 1 John 3 v1:11 Ezekiel 3 v10:17 O Lord, we are lifted, cleansed, forgiven, loved beyond measure. All are called, though few are chosen. Today, Lord, help us make the grade, help us reach the finish line, let us take hold of the prize. Guide us keep us, shape us, mould us, Lord, each one to the potential that You see in us, when You see Your Son in us. No caveats, no conditions, no rewards greater than that which You gave us at Calvary. In Jesus's name we pray, amen. He's The Saviour Of My Soul How Deep The Father's Love 10th Nisan Saturday 4th April Theme -> Passover / Resurrection Faith, Lord, give us faith. Faith to push further, faith to ask, faith to believe, faith to overcome. God Almighty, lend us strength for the day, as You have given us hope for a future. Amen, Lord of Hosts, amen and hallelujah forever. Amen. ?Face to Face with Christ, My Saviour Rise Up And Praise Him Psalm 19 Luke 14 v25:35 In between our waiting on You and our celebration of You is both great calm and fireworks of emotion. You, Lord of Lords and King of Kings, are like no other. To know You is a privilege, to serve You is an honour, yet, to be forgiven by You is something we cannot ever deserve. Help us Lord, remain faithful and true during this inequality. Help us receive humbly of the bread at Your table. You are the Waymaker, the Alpha and Omega, You created the Heavens and the Earth and all the things therein. You have made a Way in the desert that all can follow, if they should but choose. It was Your choice to do this. I choose today to follow Jesus, called Yeshua and Isa. Keep me on this precious way, I pray in Jesus's name. Amen. Who You Say I Am ?The Waiting 9th Nisan Friday 3rd April We are lifting a double portion of praise throughout the month of Nisan and a double portion of worship in the approach to Passover. We will then lift a double portion of the double portion for the Resurrection celebration of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ! Theme -> Passover / Resurrection O Lord, we approach Your throne ever mindful of the privilege, so richly undeserved. Thank You for the honour, thank You for the sacrifice. lead us and guide us in the way we should go, in Jesus's name we pray. Amen. Praise To The Lord, The Almighty Moment By Moment ?Amos 5 v10:14 Ecclesiastes 4 v8:11 O Lord God of Heaven, maker of the earth and all the things therein, we seek Your face. We look to You for guidance and solace. We search for You for wisdom and truth. In our searching, let us also look for people of You. Your peculiar people are spread out across the whole earth, a crop of grain among a field of weeds, a flock of sheep among the goats. Yet, where two or more are gathered together in Your name, there You are in the midst of them. That is the warmth we seek. Fellowship. Companionship, in Christ alone. All else follows from there. Give us strength to overcome the physical yearning for partners in favour of discernment for spiritual yearning to assemble with fellow believers. There lies the strength of Your church, there lies the overcoming of our enemy, Satan. By the stripes of Jesus we are healed, we overcome Satan by the blood of the Lamb and the words of our testimony. Help us to come together in this, we pray today, for Your glory, amen. Worthy Of It All As For Me And My House 8th Nisan Thursday 2nd April Theme -> Passover / Resurrection Lord Jesus, it is our prayer to know more and to see more. There is none like You. There is noone else who has paid the price that You have. You are the Rock of every believer's salvation, You are the hope that we cling to, You are the truth that sets us free. Populate our minds, hearts and communities. For the Father's glory, amen. ?'Tis So Sweet To Trust In Jesus Dove's Eyes Zechariah 2 v1:5 Study here. John 18 v20:23 Lord God, Maker of the Heavens and the Earth, matchless King of Mercy and Grace, who can stand against You? And yet, even the guards that witnessed every miracle and word You spoke in the temple think it right to attack You without reason. Such derision You stir in the people of this world. Yet this spirit is not of You, is is a spirit of the Enemy. Condemnation arising from the simple fact that we are fallen and You are perfect, that the responsibility is ours. Heavenly King, perfect Father, help us to share the simple truth, that You knew this from the beginning, that You knew exactly what was needed to remedy this, that You sent Your Son, Jesus, so that all men could be forgiven. Not put on probation, not bought into bondage for a price, but truly, wholly and totally set free, forgiven, for once and for all. It is brilliant. Only You could do it, only You have done it. Help us share this, Lord, that You may do the rest, in Jesus's name, amen. Alpha And Omega Trust And Obey 7th Nisan Wednesday 1st April Theme -> Passover / Resurrection Approaching this special time, in such a time of global crisis, we at twooneone.org are pressing in to His word and truth, doubling our praise and efforts in a request for greater and deeper understanding. May His light be our lead and guide, in Jesus's name, amen. Standing On The Promises Of God Power In The Blood Isaiah 40 v27:31 Matthew 13 v24:30 Yes Lord, this world is fraught with danger and the Enemy has sewn a crop of tares amongst the wheat of Your field. Yet You, Lord, are mighty to save and, in time, You will gather the good crop into Your barns. Today, Lord, we seek discernment, to surrender all and every thing that hinders our walk with You, to make us fast upon the Rock of Our Salvation, Jesus, who is the Christ. By His stripes we are healed, by His blood are we washed clean. We could never be made worthy by anything else, not works or deeds. You made it this way so that no man could boast of His own way. Rather, we would boast of the wonderful, amazing way that Jesus has made in our lives, the transformation in thought, speech and understanding, the new heart of flesh given instead of a heart of stone. In all our prayers, above all, it is Your truth we would want to share in our hearts and in the hearts of others, that Your Holy Spirit can bring forth good fruit, in Jesus's mighty name, Amen. Holy, Holy, Holy Are You Lord Old Rugged Cross 6th Nisan Tuesday 31st March Jesus I Need You See His Love Ecclesiates 6 v6:12, 7 v1:5 What are we without You, Jesus of Nazareth? Dust? Foolish dust? From before time began You knew the Way that would have to be walked, the pain that would have to be endured, yet You, in Your unfathomable greatness and love, walked it all the same. Help us be more like You, Son of God, let Your Holy Spirit be our comfort, rest and guide. Rebuke us, correct us, prune us where necessary, there are no loving hands like Yours. Blessed, Holy One of Israel, pour out Your Spirit on us, fill us, that we may pour out Your Spirit on others. In that knowledge from the beginning was also the certain knowledge of Your overcoming, the unfolding of Your awesome, magic plan for our Salvation. Who is like You, God Almighty? At once Father, Spirit and Son? Who could have ever of thought of such things as You do? Awesome God, Mighty God. Jehovah Nissi, Jehovah Tsidkenu, all blessings, glory and honour to You, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, amen. God, You're So Good Blessed Be Your Name 5th Nisan Monday 30th March Yes, it seems that we are doubling up on our worship for the month of Nisan whilst the lockdown endures here in New Zealand. We will also be doubling up on the prayer and the scripture on the approach to Passover / Resurrection Day. You are all upheld in prayer for safety and security, may His grace and goodness go with you, may you be blessed as you press ever closer towards His throne, for His glory, hallelujah, amen. What A Beautiful Name He Touched Me Genesis 7 v1:7 O God, how we call out to You in times of uncertainty and need. Help us, dear Lord, to remember You when this time is over, in Jesus's name. Amen. On The Wings Of A Snow White Dove He Hideth My Soul 4th Nisan Sunday 29th March Praises Amazing Grace Revelation 4 Yes, Lord, You are on the throne. You are holy, You are mighty, You are able, You made the Heavens and the Earth. Lord, as we come before You today, humbled by the awesome privilege that this represents, we lay down our crowns before you. All our achievements have come from You, all our hopes and dreams we place in Your loving hands. Lord, we pray to You as children, for strength and courage to face the day, for patience, insight and understanding to love and forgive others, as You have loved and forgiven us. Above all, we seek to be Your servants, not in bondage, but of freely surrendered will. Help us, Lord, lift Your name, the name of Your Son, Jesus, higher than ever before, for Your glory and the coming of Your Kingdom we pray, amen. https://youtube.com/watch?v=HBcP1ICgUIM https://youtube.com/watch?v=yWSATpx7uzk 3rd Nisan Saturday 28th March Blessed Be The Name Of The Lord ? Thank You Lord Joshua 8 v1:8 O Lord, we come and celebrate Your Sabbath day. Your wisdom has been to give us a day to set aside our toils and troubles. You know all that goes on in the world, our rising up and setting down, and You have decreed that after six days of labour, we should have a day of rest. It is not an accident. It has not changed, as You do not change. So today Lord, we thank You and praise You and we bless Your name. You are God. You are our God. We are Your people. You will uphold us, in Jesus's mighty name, by the power of Your Spirit, for the glory of Your Kingdom forever. Amen. Glory hallelujah, amen. https://youtube.com/watch?v=PnWKehsOXu8 https://youtube.com/watch?v=LOkPq0tEilU 2nd Nisan Friday 27th March Be Still For The Presence Of The Lord ?God Of Wonders John 13 v31:35 Lord, be our lead, our guide, our love in the days to come. We need Your bright light, the true light of the gospel, to see by and to steer by. There will be challenges but, as long as You are with us, they will be overcome. We will not be fearful. We will rejoice in You, for You have set us free, by Your stripes we are healed. Lord God of Israel, God of Isaac, God of Paul, we stand for You and with You, in Jesus's mighty name, amen. ?https://youtube.com/watch?v=i7lv9oMjv_0 https://youtube.com/watch?v=g6_BLuhr0HQ 1st Nisan Thursday 26th March Mighty Man Of War Light The Fire Again John 1 v19:23 Wretched and blind we come to You Lord, as worms before You. You humbled Yourself on the Cross to this point, as an example for all of us. We need to crucify spiritually what You were crucified for physically. Lord, light the fire in us again. The consuming fire, that cleanses and eventually heals, that burns away sin and indignation, hopelessness and fear. In this new month You have given the people of this world unprecedented opportunity to break from their current, busy lives. In that time of reflection and isolation, may You walk and work amongst us, use us, lift us, guide us. You will one day separate the wheat from the tares, the goats from the sheep. Prepare us for battle, O Mighty Lord. Amen.
