10th Tevet Friday 25th December Merry and blessed Christmas to all who seek and search for the glory of the Lord, from all at twooneone.org. A double portion of praise and worship on this global celebration of the Christ's birth. His Love See His Love O The Deep, Deep Love Of Jesus How He Loves Us Isaiah 9 v6:7 Matthew 1 v22:25 What love is this? With what shall we compare it to? You are the King of All Creation. You are the Maker, the Creator. You are the Author and Finisher of All Works. You were before the world was made. You will be after it has passed away. Mighty God, Jehovah, Yahweh, Adonai, El, we are humbled and amazed. We will never earn Your love, yet You have poured it out for us. You purposed Yourself to do this. You knew the price, and were prepared to pay it. Thank You, Lord, for Your grace and splendour. Thank You, Jesus, for Your love that is beyond what we could ever know. Thank You, Holy Spirit, for running through and in all things, giving us the victory today that was won on that cross over two thousand years ago. You are the Lord of Lords and King of Kings! You have made a way in the desert, You will make a way for Your children. Hosanna, to the Most High God. Hosanna, to the humble Son, born in a stable, Hosanna, to the only One who is able to present us, spotless, before the throne. Hosanna and amen! Hosanna and glory hallelujah! Hosanna and amen again. Amen. Holy Lord and Heavenly Father, today we raise a prayer for all those women who are pregnant or have gone through childbirth. We know that there will be no raising of children in the life hereafter, and we know and You know the trial and suffering of delivery, spiritually and physically. Lord Jehovah, Mighty God, we pray a blessing of peace upon the heads and shoulders of Your daughters, and pray that we raise an acknowledgement, as Your children, towards them for their strength and courage in time of trial. Give them strength and courage to face the day, this one and the one to come, when the fruit of their labours may be brought out before them. Thank You, Lord for hearing our prayer, thank You, Lord for the miracle of birth. In Jesus's name we pray, amen. https://youtube.com/watch?v=PGTZq3uCPm0 9th Tevet Thursday 24th December Continuing the journey to the manger with extra praise and progression through the Book of Micah. Simple Gospel Word Of God Speak Micah 7 Even after all the warnings and all of the betrayal, yet You have a heart and mind that is for us and not against us, God of Israel. Though we cannot continue in them, You have offered to put our sins far away from us, that they be remembered no more. The God of Isaac and Jacob is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow, and He has purposed Himself to redeem His people. In the promise of Your coming is the victory over sin and death, delivery to eternal life and a reconciliation and boundless walk with Jesus, God's own Son. On the eve of the global celebration of His birth, we ask, Lord, that You remind all people of Your will and purpose, and continue to open the hearts and minds of those who would receive You, through the ministry of Your saints and the power of Your Holy Spirit. We celebrate the coming of the Risen King, as we celebrate His first coming to earth as a humble carpenter's son, born in a stable and laid in a manger before Shepherds and Kings. All glory and honour to You, wise King of Heaven, all praise and supplication to You, Son of God, who is God. Hosanna! Hosanna! Amen! Good Good Father 8th Tevet Wednesday 23rd December Approaching Christmas, a journey through the Book of Micah Closer ​Your Presence is Heaven Micah 6 What a word against Your people, Lord, what a word that could be spoken against all of the people of the earth this day. As a world we have heard Your word, the name of Jesus, Your son, yet, as a world, we reject Your truth and way. Would we reject Your life also. to keep that which we believe to be ours? In truth, no good thing can come from ourselves, our hearts are corrupt, deceitful and wicked beyond measure. Lord of Lords and King of Kings, the only chance for life that we have is in repentance, in requesting of You the forgiveness of our sins. We cannot deserve or earn such a high honour, yet You are merciful and kind enough to have sent Your Son that we may have that second chance. Lord, let us honour and receive You this day and every day, as the earth received its true King around 2000 years ago. For Your name and glory, amen. ​Joy To The World 7th Tevet Tuesday 22nd December The Approach To Christmas an extra song each day and a journey through the Book of Micah My Lighthouse I Can Only Imagine Micah 5 More than just a message from the prophets, Mighty One of Israel, a declaration of Your intent for Your people and Your city. The coming of Your Son, the rising up and the tearing down. You have brought peace to the captives, yet on the outside there are still stormy seas. Holy and heavenly Father, You have sent us a bright light to steer by, we do not need any other. Your Son, Jesus, called Yeshua, has come to earth, lived a perfect life in humility and grace, then has borne the burden of our sins, that we might have the opportunity to come to You, to approach Your throne, to live in You and serve You as was Your plan from the beginning. Perfect relationship. Perfect peace. Today, Lord, as we come ever closer to the celebration of Your birthday, help us experience some of that peace, to seek and find the joy that is in our hearts, to know You more, You who is beyond our imagination. Amen. Hark! The Herald Angels Sing 6th Tevet Monday 21st December Praise the Lord! Another step closer to the celebration of the Coming of the King! In Christ Alone Glorious Day​ Micah 4 You have a plan, Lord. You have had one since before time began. You are not late or slow in its execution or completion, You will follow a straight path in the desert until it is done, You will achieve Your purpose, You will redeem Your children from this world. Heavenly Father, there is none before You, there is none like You. We thank You today for Your grace, Your excellence and purposefulness of movement. We cannot move like You, Lord, unless we are totally surrendered to You. Lift us, guide us, keep us, according to Your perfect will today, in Jesus's mighty, powerful and precious name, amen. Thy Will Be Done 5th Tevet Sunday 19th December Continuing the journey to the manger with extra praise and progression through the Book of Micah. Hosanna You Are Worthy of My Praise Micah 3 Thank You Lord for Your Bible. Your word and wisdom, inspired of thousands of years, now translated and available in the plainest of languages, that even the simplest of understanding can see and hear Your word clearly. Thank You for those who have carried this torch. What a day and age You have fashioned to do this. Yet, Lord, as our understanding grows and our ability to access Your word is made easier, we need to pray for wisdom to grow from this opportunity. For, as faith without works is dead, so there is no wisdom without understanding. Your written word is a light unto our path and a lamp unto our feet, more accessible to more people than ever before. Help us not miss out on this treasure, rather to embrace it, to speak from it and get lost in it, to be found in it, when You return, for Your glory and Your name's sake, the name of Jesus, our Messiah, in whose name we pray. Amen. ​Ancient Words 4th Tevet Saturday 19th December Approaching Christmas, a journey through the Book of Micah Showers Of Blessing O Holy Night Micah 2 O what words Your prophets left for Your people, Mighty God! The warnings are clear, and the promise almost too much to bear, a King to lead Your people, a triumph to go before them as a lamp and a flame of old. Let us heed Your words today, Lord, as the whole world reflects the uncertainty and captivity of Jerusalem in the days of Your coming to the earth. These words had been laid down centuries before, and told of the coming of the Romans as punishment for Israel's wickedness. Now the earth groans under the weight and burden of its curse, as people everywhere are called to repentance, offered the chance of salvation. Help us point to the One and Only Saviour, who is able to deliver us, spotless, to Your feet. Jesus, Yeshua, the Messiah, in whose name we pray, amen. Forever 3rd Tevet ​Friday 18th December The Approach To Christmas an extra song each day and a journey through the Book of Micah Victory Belongs To Jesus Great Are You Lord Micah 1 Great are You Lord. Great and Mighty. You are without equal in the heavens or the earth, there is none like You. Holy and heavenly Father, it is a terrible thing to fall into the hands of the Living God, and we tremble at the thought of Your coming and finding us wanting, like a thief in the night. You see truly and clearly, Lord of Hosts, there is no place that You cannot see, no thought You cannot discern and weigh in the balance rightly. You have set Yourself to redeem Your people, and You will see it done. In the reading we see the consequence of ignorance yet take hope that the Lord who is a consuming fire is also the Lord who humbled Himself to a manger and the Cross for His name's sake. King of Heaven, today we bow down in reverence and fear, and acknowledge You for who You are, what You are doing and what You will do, in Jesus's mighty name. Amen.
