God’s Word Guides Life & Worship                                             Psalm 119:121-128

“I have done what is righteous and just; do not leave me to my oppressors.  Ensure your servant's well-being; let not the arrogant oppress me.  My eyes fail, looking for your salvation, looking for your righteous promise.  Deal with your servant according to your love and teach me your decrees.  I am your servant; give me discernment that I may understand your statutes.  It is time for you to act, O LORD; your law is being broken.  Because I love your commands more than gold, more than pure gold, and because I consider all your precepts right, I hate every wrong path.”

“But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify.  This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.”

MORNING PRAYER AND THE LORD'S PRAYER     Matthew 6:9b-13 (KJV) (alt.)

“Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.”
