Exodus 15

The Israelites used this prayer to thank and praise God:

"The Lord has covered himself in glory,
horse and rider he has thrown into the sea.

The Lord is my strength and my song,
he is my salvation.

This is my God, I praise him
The Lord is his name.

Lord, when you blew over the waters,
they piled high on two sides.

Lord, only you are God,
there is no other.

Lord, you are our king for ever."

Dear God, you are my strength and my salvation


Psalm 88

Lord my God, day and night I call to you for help.
Please turn your ear to my cry.

For my soul is filled with evils.
My life is on the brink of the grave.

I am reckoned as one in the tomb.
I have reached the end of my strength.

Will your love be told in the grave?
Will your wonders be known in the dark?

Fear surrounds me like a flood.
They keep on assailing me.

All my friends have deserted me.
My only companion is darkness.

Lord, please help people who are in despair


Acts 19

Paul left Corinth and went to the city of Ephesus
where he found a dozen men who had been baptized by John the Baptist

He asked them "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you became believers?"

They replied "We have not been taught about the Holy Spirit"

When Paul explained Jesus to them, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Paul then prayed with them using the laying on of hands, 
and the Holy Spirit came down on them.
They began to speak in tongues and to prophesy

Holy Spirit, please fall afresh on me and  increase your influence in my life


Matthew 19

Some people brought their little children to Jesus.
They hoped Jesus would  put his hands on the children and bless them.

Jesus' disciples told the people to go away and not bother Jesus.
But Jesus' said "Don't prevent the little children from coming to me".

Then he put his hands on them and blessed them.

Jesus, please help all children to know you from their earliest days.
Please don't let parents prevent children from coming to you.
