Numbers 7, 8

When Moses went into the Tent of Meeting to speak with God,
Moses heard God's voice.

Specially dedicated to God were the Levites.
They were responsible for the worship ministry in the Tent.

They served this ministry from when they were
twenty five years old until they were fifty years old

Dear God, please bless all pastors and ministers


Psalm 125

Those who put their trust in the Lord 
are like Mount Zion, that cannot be shaken.

Jerusalem, the mountains surround her,
so the Lord surrounds his people, now and forever.

Lord,  please help us be more aware  of your protecting presence


Romans 8

You are on God's team. 
God the Father is the manager. Jesus is the captain. The Holy Spirit is the coach, a coach living in your heart

If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you,
then he who raised Jesus from the dead will help you live a risen life

By the grace of the Holy Spirit you can stop doing bad things

Holy Spirit of Jesus, Holy Spirit of the Father, fall afresh on me!


Mark 2

After some time Jesus returned to Capernaum.
Crowds quickly gathered at the house where he was staying.

While he was preaching inside the house,
four men carried a paralytic on a stretcher to the front door.

They couldn't get in, because of the crowd, so they went up on the roof,
took off some of the roof covering, and lowered the stretcher in front of Jesus.

Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralytic "Your sins are forgiven".
Some religious leaders present in the crowd  thought to themselves
"Who does this man think he is? Only God can forgive sins".

Jesus knew what they were thinking, so he asked them
"Which is easier? To say 'Your sins are forgiven' or 'Get up and walk'?

But to show you that I have authority to forgive sins I now say
get up, pick up your stretcher and go home."

The man got up, picked up his stretcher and walked out in front of everyone.
The crowd said "We have never seen anything like this".

Jesus, please heal my friend (..name..) who is a paralytic
