Prayer
Bless the Lord, whose name is to be praised,
Our Father who art in heaven,
who has given us his laws,
to show us the error of our ways,
Blessed is his son, Christ the Messiah,
who redeemed us from having broken them.
Blessed are you, O Holy Spirit,
who assists us in sinning no more,
and sustains us in the way of the Lord,
grant us wisdom and understanding this day.
Amen.
Old Testament Reading - God wants Justice
14Be good, flee evil—and live! Then the Lord, the Lord Almighty, will truly be your Helper, as you have claimed he is. 15Hate evil and love the good; remodel your courts into true halls of justice. Perhaps even yet the Lord God of Hosts will have mercy on his people who remain.
21“I hate your show and pretense — your hypocrisy of ‘honoring’ me with your religious feasts and solemn assemblies. 22I will not accept your burnt offerings and thank offerings. I will not look at your offerings of peace. 23Away with your hymns of praise — they are mere noise to my ears. I will not listen to your music, no matter how lovely it is.
24“I want to see a mighty flood of justice — a torrent of doing good.
. . . . . Amos 5:21-24Intercession
Please remember our Prayer Requests
We pray for all people in their daily life and work;
For our families, friends, and neighbours
and for those who are alone.
For this community,
the nation,
and the world;
For all who work for justice, freedom, and peace.
Hear us, Lord;
For your mercy is great.
Amen.
