2 Peter 3:9-13


9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise,
as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward,
not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night;
in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise,
and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and
the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved,
what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God,
wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved,
and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise,
look for new heavens and a new earth,
wherein dwelleth righteousness.



Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

Open our ears and our hearts so that we hear you speaking and
can follow the voice that cries out to us. May we be a people who
prepare the way for you. Grant each of us strength to give up
everything at the right moment and to realize, "The way to my
heart should be leveled too. It should be straight and level all
around me and in the whole world." The light is now shining for
us in Jesus Christ, and through him we want to find strength and
help, to the glory of your name. Through hearing his voice we
will find help. Help will be very near to us, and the mighty hand
of the Lord Jesus will be over us in every need. For this he came.
We can believe in his help, and we long for it. Hear the inmost
longing of each one of us, and make us part of your people so that
we may keep hope in our hearts and serve you on earth.
Praise to your name, O Father in heaven,
that you have put us on earth and that we can draw
strength from the One who fights and is victorious, Jesus Christ.


In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
