Day 83 - (Today’s Bible readings: Exodus 12:31-51; Psalm 78:36-72; Romans 9:27–10:4)
For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” (Romans 10:13 ESV)
What good news for sinners caught in an evil world! God invites us to call on Him for forgiveness and salvation. In fact, this is what we get to do this morning as we gather around God’s Word and Sacraments tomorrow morning.
In peace let us pray to the Lord.
Lord, have mercy.
For the peace from above and for our salvation, let us pray to the Lord.
Lord, have mercy.
For the peace of the whole world, for the well-being of the Church of God, and for the unity of all, let us pray to the Lord.
Lord, have mercy.
For this holy house and for all who offer here their worship and praise, let us pray to the Lord.
Lord, have mercy.
Help, save, comfort, and defend us, gracious Lord.
Amen. (The Kyrie, The Lutheran Service Book, CPH 2006, Divine Service One)
Lord, thank You for promising forgiveness and salvation to me when I call on You. Lord, have mercy on me, a poor, miserable sinner. Amen.
“See” you in church tomorrow!
