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 - Help for a leader
17“It’s not right!” his father-in-law exclaimed. 18“You’re going to wear yourself out — and if you do, what will happen to the people? Moses, this job is too heavy a burden for you to try to handle all by yourself. 19-20Now listen, and let me give you a word of advice, and God will bless you: Be these people’s lawyer — their representative before God — bringing him their questions to decide; you will tell them his decisions, teaching them God’s laws, and showing them the principles of godly living.
24Moses listened to his father-in-law’s advice and followed this suggestion. 25He chose able men from all over Israel and made them judges over the people — thousands, hundreds, fifties, and tens. 26They were constantly available to administer justice. They brought the hard cases to Moses but judged the smaller matters themselves.
