Deuteronomy 8 : 1-9

   
1 All the commandments which I command thee this day shall ye observe to do,
that ye may live, and multiply,
and go in and possess the land which the Lord sware unto your fathers.
2 And thou shalt remember all the way which the Lord thy God led thee
these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee,
and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart,
whether thou wouldest keep his commandments,
or no.
3 And he humbled thee,
and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna,
which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know;
that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only,
but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live.
4 Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee,
neither did thy foot swell,
these forty years.
5 Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that,
as a man chasteneth his son,
so the Lord thy God chasteneth thee.
6 Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments
of the Lord thy God,
to walk in his ways,
and to fear him.
7 For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land,
a land of brooks of water,
of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills;
8 A land of wheat, and barley,
and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates;
a land of oil olive,
and honey;
9 A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness,
thou shalt not lack any thing in it;
a land whose stones are iron,
and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass.



Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

We thank you that you have revealed to us the name Jesus Christ,
the name of your Son,
who leads us to you as your children.
May your hand be plainly seen over all the suffering
and dying people of our time.
May your hand soon bring in a new age,
a time truly of God and of the Savior,
fulfilling what has long been promised.
Watch over us this night. Bless us.
In suffering, continue to uphold us with your mighty hand.
In grief, may your name still be honored.
May your kingdom come,
breaking into all the evil of the world,
and may your will be done on earth as in heaven.



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

Amen
