1 Samuel 17: The Philistine and Israelite armies prepared
for battle.
The Philistines were on one hill, the Israelites on an opposite hill,
with a valley between them. The Philistines produced a giant warrior,
Goliath,
who challenged the Israelites to find one man to fight him.
Goliath said: "If I win, you become our slaves;
if I am killed, we will become your slaves." For many weeks Goliath issued his
challenge,
but no Israelite soldier was brave enough to fight Goliath. Then David visited the army
camp and heard
Goliath's words.
He offered to fight Goliath. Some people made fun of David,
but David knew he would be helped by the
Lord. David took 5 smooth stones from the river bed
and with his sling in his hand he went to fight Goliath. When Goliath saw the young boy David,
Goliath insulted and ridiculed him. But David took out one of his stones
and slung it at Goliath. The stone hit Goliath on the forehead
and he dropped to the ground. David then used Goliath's sword to kill him and cut off his head.
When the Philistines saw that their champion
was dead,
they fled in fear, chased by the Israelites who defeated them. Saul put David in charge of his army
and David had many victories. David and Saul's son Jonathan became good
friends.
Dear God, please help me
just as you helped David
My
recording of this reading
Psalm
92: It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
to make music to your name, O Most High, to proclaim your love in the morning,
and your truth right through the night. Your deeds, O Lord, have made me glad.
For the work of your hands, I shout with joy. To me you give the wild ox's strength.
You anoint me with the purest oil. May we love and praise you right through our
lives,
right till the end of our days. May we keep on proclaiming your goodness,
proclaiming that in you, our rock, there is only goodness.
Lord, it is right and fitting
to love and praise you
Listen
Acts 21.1-14: Our sea voyage took us to the city of
Caesarea. A prophet there took Paul's belt and used it to tie up his own
feet and hands,
as a sign of what would happen to Paul in Jerusalem. Everyone implored Paul not to go to
Jerusalem.
Paul replied "I am ready not only to be tied up,
but even to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus". And so we packed up and headed for Jerusalem
Jesus, please give me a bit of Paul's courage
Listen
Luke
24.1-11: On Sunday morning, at daybreak, the women
went to the tomb with the spices they had prepared. They found that the
large stone which had been put at the tomb's entrance had been rolled away.
They entered the tomb and found that the body
of Jesus was not there. Suddenly two men in brilliant clothes appeared at
their side. The men said to them "Why look among the
dead for someone who is alive? He is not here. He has risen, just as he
said he would". The women told all this to the eleven
apostles. But the apostles did not believe them
Jesus, increase my faith in your
resurrection

Isaiah 7: A foreign king and
his army attacked Jerusalem. The king of Judah and his
people were full of fear. God told Isaiah to say to the king of Judah:
"Keep calm, have no fear. You will not be defeated. The Lord himself gives
you a sign of his protection: a
maiden is with child and will give birth to a son whom
she will call God-with-us."
Lord, please help me understand how you are God-with-me every day
My recording of this reading
Psalm
40: You do not ask for
sacrifice and offerings, but an open ear. You do not ask for holocaust and
victim. Instead, here am I. In the scroll of the book it
stands written that I should do your will. My God, I delight in your law
in the depth of my heart. Your justice I have proclaimed in the great assembly.
My lips I have not sealed, you know it, O Lord. I have not hidden your justice
in my heart, but declared your faithful help. I have not hidden your love and
your truth from the great assembly.
Here I am, Lord. I come to do your will

Luke
1.26-38 (a) In the sixth
month of Elizabeth's pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to the town of
Nazareth in Galilee, to a virgin named Mary who was betrothed to a man named
Joseph. The angel said to her "Mary, Rejoice! You have been greatly blessed
by God. You
are to conceive and have a son whom you must name Jesus. He will be great
and will be called the Son of God". Mary said to the angel, "How can
this happen since I am a virgin?"
Recording
Luke
1.26-38 (b) The angel
replied "The Holy Spirit will come upon you and the power of the Most High
will specially bless you. Know this too: your cousin Elizabeth has, in her old
age, conceived a son, and is now in her sixth month". "I am the
handmaid of the Lord", said Mary, "let
what you have said, be done for me". And the angel left her.
God the Son, thank you for becoming a baby in Mary's womb

had not agreed to the killing of Jesus. Late Friday afternoon, he went to Governor
Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. He took it down from the cross,
wrapped it in a burial cloth, and put it in a rock tomb that had not yet
been used. The women from Galilee who had come to
Jerusalem with Jesus went with Joseph to the tomb. Then they left to
prepare burial spices and ointments. They planned to put these on Jesus'
body after the Saturday Sabbath day of rest
Jesus in the tomb, please give eternal life to

103: My soul, give thanks to the
Lord. All my being, bless his holy name. My soul, give thanks to the Lord and
never forget all his blessings. It is he who forgives all your guilt, who heals
every one of your ills. It is he who fills your life with good things, renewing
your youth like an eagle's life. The
Lord is compassion and love, slow to anger and rich in mercy. As the
heavens are high above the earth so strong is his love for those who love him.
As far as the East is from the West, so far does he remove our sins. As a father
has compassion on his children, the Lord has pity on all who love and honor him.
Give thanks to the Lord, all his angels, who heed the voice of his word. Give
thanks to the Lord, everyone and everything. My soul, give thanks to the Lord!
Thank you, Lord, for your love and compassion

Samuel 13-15: Not long after he became king, Saul began
doing things
that caused Samuel to stop supporting him. Samuel clearly told Saul what the Lord wanted
Saul to do,
but Saul insisted on doing things his own way. Saul seemed more concerned about his own
popularity
than about being obedient to the Lord. This displeased the Lord, and he rejected Saul.
Dear God, please help us
not to disobey you.
"Your will be done"
My
recording of this reading
Psalm
90: O Lord you have been our refuge from one generation to the next.
Before the earth or the world
existed,
you are God, without beginning or end. For you, a thousand years are
like yesterday, come and gone so quickly. We humans have a short life,
our life is over like a sigh. Our span is 70 years,
or 80 for those who are strong. Make us know the shortness of our
life,
that we may gain wisdom of heart. In the morning, fill us with your
love.
Give success to the work of our hands.
Lord,
help us realize the shortness of our life, that we may live our lives more wisely

20.22-24: Paul continued "Now you see me a prisoner

happen to me there.
The Holy Spirit has made it clear that imprisonment and persecution await
me there. But life to me is not a thing to waste words
on. What matters is that when I finish my race, I have carried out the
mission the Lord Jesus gave me - to bear witness to the Good News of God's
grace"
Jesus, please help me live a worthwhile life

Luke
23.44-49: At about midday, there was an eclipse of the
sun.
The whole land was in darkness until about 3pm. The veil of the Temple was torn right down the
middle. Jesus cried out in a loud voice "Father,
into your hands I entrust my life". Then he died. When the Roman army leader saw what had
happened,
he said "This was a great and good man". The people who had been present went home
asking God for mercy. Jesus' friends
stood at a distance and saw all that had happened
Jesus,
thank you for dying on the cross for

Thu March 20
Since last Saturday night, when I first heard about the situation, I have been
asking everyone to pray for a Kenyan woman due to be executed in Vietnam. The
execution date has passed and there is no news. Please God this means the
execution has at least been postponed for the time being.
Two days ago at Lo Wu women's prison, when I asked people to pray for the woman
in Vietnam, a Kenyan woman said she knew the woman in Vietnam (Margaret Nduta)
... and that the two of them had been in prison in Ghana after being forced to
take drugs there by Nigerians who threatened their families. The HK woman's case
was dropped because the police managing her arrest misappropriated the drugs and
the police themselves were arrested. But Margaret served about 4 years in the
Ghana prison.
When the Lo Wu Kenyan got back to Kenya from Ghana, she was immediately
contacted by the Nigerians who again threatened her family, even kidnapping her
son. So she came to HK with drugs, but on arrival immediately notified Customs
that she had drugs .... and is now serving a shortened sentence.
She feels that on release from Ghana that Margaret faced the same situation ...
threats to family...forcing her to go to Vietnam.
So the woman in Lo Wu wrote a simple note in Swahili to try to help stop the
execution. That night I sent the note to a media friend in Kenya ... which led
to this
FB report, which in 24 hours had 635,000 views ... and hopefully has
given the Kenyan government useful information to share with the government in
Vietnam to stop the execution. The interview with me is at 1.23. JESUS,
PLEASE HELP MARGARET!

night. As Paul went on and on, a young man who was sitting on the
window-sill, went to sleep and fell to the ground three floors below. He was dead when they picked him up. Paul went
down to the boy and prayed over him. The boy came back to life.
Paul kept on talking till

do not know what they are doing". The leaders made fun of him "He saved
others, let him save himself if he is the Christ of God". The soldiers mocked him too "If you are
the king of the Jews, save yourself"
Jesus, you forgave those who mocked you and
crucified you. I forgive anyone who has been unkind to me
