Exodus 11

One last time God sent Moses to Pharaoh, with this message:

"Tonight at midnight, God's angel will pass through Egypt .
All the first-born in the land of Egypt will die,
all the first-born of humans and animals,
except the first-born of the Israelites.
"

Dear God, please bless everyone in Egypt !


Psalm 85

I will hear what the Lord God has to say,
a voice that speaks of peace.

Peace for his people and his friends
and those who turn to him in their hearts.

His help is near for those who fear him
and his glory will dwell in our land.

Mercy and faithfulness have met.
Justice and peace have embraced.

Faithfulness shall spring from the earth
and justice shall look down from heaven.

The Lord will make us prosper
and our earth shall yield its fruit.

Justice shall march before him
and peace shall follow his steps

Lord, please give more peace to our world


Acts 17

Paul continued speaking to the intellectuals:
"We have no excuse for thinking that the Creator
looks like something carved in gold, silver or stone

God overlooked that sort of thing when we were ignorant. 
But now he is telling everyone to repent and believe in Jesus raised from the dead"

Some intellectuals laughed at Paul. A few became believers

Jesus, please give intellectuals the humility to believe in you


Matthew 18

One day Jesus heard his disciples arguing 
about which one of them was the most important.

Jesus got a little child to sit in front of them, and said 
"If you want to be great in God's eyes, become child-like.
In fact, unless you become child-like, you won't get to heaven.

And make sure you never cause harm to children like this one.
Remember, the protecting angels of children
are in the presence of my Father in heaven."

Jesus, please help me to be more child-like,
and please don't let me ever cause harm to children
