Lord,
You want to “establish Your Word” among us (1 Kings 6:120. Do we
“rejoice greatly” when we hear Your Word (1 Kings 5:7)? Help us to
welcome Jesus Christ, “the Word made flesh”, the living Word who “dwells
among us, full of grace and truth” (John 1:14). Help us to welcome Him
as “Emmanuel – God with us” (Matthew 1:23). May we rejoice greatly when
Jesus stands among us as our loving Saviour, when He comes to us as the
risen Lord, when He speaks to us as Your living Word.
By Your grace, Lord, You call us to be Your soldiers and servants. Help us not to be "fearful and fainthearted" (Deuteronomy 19:19). Help us to be "good soldiers of Jesus Christ" (2 Timothy 2:3). When we hear your challenging question: "Who is on the Lord's side?", may we give our committed answer: "By Thy call of mercy, by Thy grace divine, we are on the Lord's side; Saviour, we are Thine."
