Isaiah 1 : 12-20
KJV


12 When ye come to appear before me,
who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?
13 Bring no more vain oblations;
incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths,
the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with;
it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.
14 Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth:
they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.
15 And when ye spread forth your hands,
I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers,
I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
16 Wash you, make you clean;
put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes;
cease to do evil;
17 Learn to do well; seek judgment,
relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless,
plead for the widow.
18 Come now, and let us reason together,
saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson,
they shall be as wool.
19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
20 But if ye refuse and rebel,
ye shall be devoured with the sword:
for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
   


Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

Grant Your Spirit to us, Your children.
May something from You be revealed on earth
so that divine strength and divine truth,
not what is only human, are with us in all we do.
Keep courage alive in our hearts even when things look dark.
May powers of peace and healing be revealed through us
because You are near and Your kingdom is all around us.
You can do all things, also things beyond our understanding.
With Your help we do what we are able,
but we cannot do what You do.
We trust in You,
and we believe that through Your power and Your Spirit
You will take possession of our whole lives and the lives
of the many who sigh in their hearts for absolute truth.


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

Amen
