Leviticus 20 : 12-19
KJV


12 And if a man lie with his daughter in law,
both of them shall surely be put to death:
they have wrought confusion; their blood shall be upon them.
13 If a man also lie with mankind,
as he lieth with a woman,
both of them have committed an abomination:
they shall surely be put to death;
their blood shall be upon them.
14 And if a man take a wife and her mother,
it is wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire,
both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.
15 And if a man lie with a beast,
he shall surely be put to death: and ye shall slay the beast.
16 And if a woman approach unto any beast,
and lie down thereto, thou shalt kill the woman,
and the beast: they shall surely be put to death;
their blood shall be upon them.
17 And if a man shall take his sister,
his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter,
and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness;
it is a wicked thing;
and they shall be cut off in the sight of their people:
he hath uncovered his sister's nakedness;
he shall bear his iniquity.
18 And if a man shall lie with a woman
having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness;
he hath discovered her fountain,
and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood:
and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
19 And thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy
mother's sister, nor of thy father's sister:
for he uncovereth his near kin: they shall bear their iniquity.
20 And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife,
he hath uncovered his uncle's nakedness:
they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
21 And if a man shall take his brother's wife,
it is an unclean thing: he hath uncovered his brother's nakedness;
they shall be childless.
22 Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes,
and all my judgments, and do them: that the land,
whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out.



Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

You fill heaven and earth with Your Spirit
and allow us to share in Your gifts.
We thank You for all You have given us,
for all You are giving and will give.
We are poor and needy;
all people are poor and needy in spite of their
striving, longing, and seeking.
Only You, through Your Spirit,
can awaken something in us to help us go
toward Your goal. Keep us from being caught
up in what men do.
The greatest help for our hearts is what You do,
and each of us can tell something about it.
Each of us has received help beyond anything
we had hoped or thought of. How much You
have done for us!
How much You are doing for the nations!
Yes, we thank You for this present time.
Although our lives often seem hopeless
and full of sorrow, Your powers are
still living among men, working for their good
and awaking them to new life.
The time will surely come when our hearts will
be released from their hunger and we can be
filled with the life from above,
which You give us in Jesus Christ."


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

Amen
