Truth Sets Free Assembly

Morning Prayer
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

Inspiration
Peace, sadly, seems almost remote in our modern times. Whilst some may have done abhorrent things in the name of our Lord, it serves us well to be reminded that the Christian faith, as quoted above, is one of peace and goodwill. The body is one in which the Lord our Father sits at the head, but is also comprised of many members, including his only begotten son, the Holy Spirit, the Angels, Apostles and Saints. For the body to function, it requires harmony between all parts, as a peace emanating from God and culminating within us.

Prayer
God almighty, in your peace, I worship you and adore you. In your goodness, I pray for your forgiveness. Grant peace upon fellow men, and show mercy towards your followers. For we are all messengers of your serenity amidst the darkness in the world, or a flame of good will still, amidst the errors of our ways. May your body of peace reign once again Lord, as we strive to do your will. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Morning Prayer
Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.

Inspiration
God is our refuge; He is our place of rest and security. As children of God, we have total assurance of our security because God is our Father and the promises He has made to us are eternal. God has promised to keep us from the wiles of the enemy and see us through the challenges and temptations of life. His Word, the Bible, is filled with these assurances so that we never forget about how faithful He is.

Prayer
Dear God, I am grateful that I can find my rest in you. There is no one else and nothing else that can give me peace and protect me, the way you do, Father. Thank you for always being faithful in your promises, Lord. I have every reason to put my trust in you and I will never forget that. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

Morning Prayer
What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

Inspiration
The Bible is filled with numerous moments of assurance for our lives. God loved us so much, and desired our salvation so much, that he gave up his Son so that we could be saved. This one act is enough to convince us that nothing can ever stand against us. We can do all things through Christ – so long as it is to the glory of God. We can face all kinds of rulers of darkness and principalities, boldly, because God is always with us and that will never change.

Prayer
Dear God, I thank you that I find my confidence in you. Lord, time and time again you have given us every reason to trust in you and never doubt you. No dark power or force can ever prosper against us because we are backed you, the Almighty God. Father, I pray that if there is ever a time when challenges try to overwhelm me, may I be reminded of this truth: that you are always with me and that will never change. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

Morning Prayer
For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.

Inspiration
Jesus lived his life for humanity. He was completely selfless. He gave up his life for sinners. Yet, we are selfish. When we are envious and want what someone else has for ourselves, we are coveting. This is a sin – do not be fooled! Envy and selfishness are evil – they are opposite to the heart of Jesus. When we are tempted by our selfish desires and envious heart, may we repent and ask God to change our spirit.

Prayer
Dear God, forgive me for the times I have been filled with envy and acted out of my own selfish desires. Forgive me for coveting what does not belong to me. O Lord, change my attitude! Give me a heart like yours. I want to live for you and not for myself – I know this means caring for others more than myself. Help me to follow your example. In Jesus' name, amen.

Morning Prayer
Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.

Inspiration
It is hard to imagine how our Jesus, holy and perfect in every way, came to live on earth amongst men. In our world full of sin and everything that opposes the light, he was birthed as a baby and lived his life among men. He became man so that he may take on man's sin on the cross. Without living as man, Jesus would not have been able to reconcile mankind to our Lord. And, Jesus did it all knowing he would have to suffer for us. It is amazing love.

Prayer
Dear God, thank you for sending your son, Jesus Christ, to live as a man on earth so that he may die for our sins. We know we do not deserve this atonement and it is only because of your mercy and grace that we have been liberated from sin and reconciled to you, O Lord. You are holy and precious to us. Help us to tell others about your good news. In Jesus' name, amen.
