Opening Sentance

Then the LORD God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper as his partner.” . . . .Genesis 2:18

Alleluia! Christ is risen indeed.
O come, let us worship. Alleluia!

Psalm 22:25-31

  1. From you comes my praise in the great congregation;
    my vows I will pay before those who fear him.
  2. The poor shall eat and be satisfied;
    those who seek him shall praise the Lord.
    May your hearts live forever!
  3. All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the LORD;
    and all the families of the nations,
    shall worship before him.
  4. For dominion belongs to the Lord,
    and he rules over the nations.
  5. To him, indeed, shall all who sleep in the earth bow down;
    before him shall bow all who go down to the dust,
    and I shall live for him.
  6. Posterity will serve him;
    future generations will be told about the Lord,
  7. and proclaim his deliverance to a people yet unborn,
    saying that he has done it.

The Armour of God

Almighty God,
grant us your wisdom and favour,
give us the grace to cast off the works of darkness
and put on the full armour of God,
now in the time of this mortal life,
Place on us the belt of truth, because you are the way,
    and the truth and the life,
the breastplate of righteousness,
    because we have no righteousness of our own,
    but you became our righteousness on the cross.
Place on us shoes of the Gospel of peace
    that we miss no opportunity to share your love with others.
Put on us the shield of faith,
    that the fiery darts of the enemy do not harm us in any way.
Put on us the helmet of salvation,
    that our minds be protected and renewed daily in You.
Put on us the sword of the Spirit,
    which is the word of God;
    and may the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ,
    the Love of God
    and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit
be with us all for ever more.
Amen.
