"I thank you, my heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, Your dear Son, that You have kept me this night from all harm and danger; and I pray that You would keep me this day also from sin and every evil, that all my doings and life may please You. For into Your hands I commend myself, my body and soul, and all things. Let Your holy angel be with me, that the evil foe may have no power over me. Amen." (Luther's Morning Prayer)
Day 116 - (Today’s Bible readings: Proverbs 8:22-36; Psalm 107; Hebrews 11:1-12)
TELL EVERYONE WHAT GOD HAS DONE
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so. (Psalm 107:2 ESV)
Why are you alive? What does the Lord expect of you? He has called those He has redeemed from sin, death and the devil to say so, to be His witnesses. May we joyfully tell everyone what He has done so they too may know the joy and peace that come from sins forgiven and heaven guaranteed.
Thank the Lord and sing His praise; tell ev'ryone what He has done.
Let all who seek the Lord rejoice and proudly bear His name.
He recalls His promises and leads His people forth in joy with shouts of thanksgiving.
Alleluia, alleluia.
(Divine Service One, The Lutheran Service Book, CPH 2006)
Lord Jesus, thank You for my salvation. May my life be filled with daily thanksgiving as I tell others of all that You have done. Please lead us forth in Your joy. Amen.
