"...But Jesus held his peace." -
Matthew 26:63.
"...power belongeth to God.
Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy"- Psalm 62:11-12.
"This is the Lord's doing; it is marvellous in our eyes."- Psalm 118: 23.
Merciful Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we sing HALLELUJAH!
We rejoice and give you praise;
Thank you God for being Wonderful!
As humbly as we know to be, we are in your presence thanking you for all things.
Abba Father, we thank you for teaching us the discipline of staying still, of being quiet, and of listening to the voice of the Holy Ghost;
We thank you for helping us to trust in YOU completely:
allowing you to handle the heart of man.
In today's reading we are reminded that when accused, betrayed, and left alone,
"Jesus held his peace."
Lord God Almighty, help us and hear our cry;
Help us not to let anyone or thing beguile us to give up the peace that you have given us: the peace that is bought with your precious blood and life.
We, too, stand with the confidence of Jesus Christ and "realize that I could ask my Father for thousands of angels to protect us"- Matthew 26:53.
We thank you, Immanuel, for never leaving us.
We repent of our sin.
We forgive and receive forgiveness.
We love and receive your unconditional love.
We receive all of the blessings that you have for us.
Jesus is the Lord.
Amen.
"... when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I."-Psalm 61:2.
My soul,
wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from Him."- Psalm 62: 5.
