daily reading 6.4 (Romans 3:27–28)

5-days-a-week through Romans and the letters Paul wrote from Rome in 2024 Our opening prayer for this week: Speak, O Lord, as we come to You To receive the food of your holy word. Take Your truth, plant it deep in us; Shape and fashion us in Your likeness, That the light of Christ might be seen today In our acts of love and our deeds of faith. Speak, O Lord, and fulfil in us All Your purposes, for Your glory. Teach us Lord full obedience, Holy reverence, true humility. Test our thoughts and our attitudes In the radiance of Your purity. Cause our faith to rise Cause our eyes to see, Your majestic love and authority. Words of power that can never fail; Let their truth prevail over unbelief. Speak, O Lord, and renew our minds; Help us grasp the heights of Your plans for us. Truths unchanged from the dawn of time, That will echo down through eternity. And by grace we’ll stand on Your promises; And by faith we’ll walk as You walk with us. Speak, O Lord, ’til your church is built And the ear...

daily reading 5.5 (Romans 3:21–22)

5-days-a-week through Romans and the letters Paul wrote from Rome in 2024 Our opening prayer for this week: Christ, the Lord of hosts, unshaken By the devil’s seething rage, Thwarts the plan of Satan’s minions; Wins the strife from age to age; Conquers sin and death forever; Slams them in their steely cage. John saw Michael waging battle, Soaring angels by his side; Michael fought the ancient serpent, Foiled the dragon, full of pride, Cast him earthbound with his demons. Now he prowls, unsatisfied. Long on earth the battle rages, Since the serpent’s first deceit Twisted God’s command to Adam, Made forbidden fruit look sweet. Then the curse of God was spoken: “You’ll lie crushed beneath his feet!” Jesus came, this word fulfilling, Trampled Satan, death defied; Bore the brunt of our temptation, On the wretched tree he died. Yet to life was raised victorious; By his life our life supplied. Swift as lightning falls the tyrant From his heavenly perch on high, As the word of Jesus’ victory F...
