Ezra 5 & 6

The prophets Haggai and Zechariah encouraged the people 
in the rebuilding of the temple.

Despite opposition, the Jews kept on rebuilding the temple

Dear God, please help me be
 a person of encouragement for others


Psalm 4

At the end of this day I praise you, Lord, for all your love and help.

O people of the world, how long will you close your hearts God?
How long you will keep on chasing false goals?

Lord, you have put into my heart a joy that cannot be obtained by big meals and plenty of wine.

I will lie day in peace and sleep comes at once,
for you, Lord, make me dwell in safety and peace

Thank you, Lord, for your love and help right through today


2 Timothy 3

Anyone who tries to live a sincere Christian life will be persecuted

Stay faithful to what you have been taught and know to be true.
Remember who your teachers were, and how, ever since you were a child, 
you have known the Scriptures

From the Scriptures you can learn the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith in Christ Jesus

All Scripture is inspired by God and can be used for teaching, for refuting error, 
for guiding people's lives and teaching them to be holy

Jesus, please give all Christians, especially pastors, 
a passion for the Scriptures


Luke 20

After some  leaders had asked him some trick questions,
Jesus said to his disciples

"Beware of the religious leaders who like to walk about in special clothes
and love to be greeted obsequiously in the market places

They like the front seats in prayer halls and the places of honor at banquets.
They like making a show of lengthy prayers.

But at the same time they steal the property of widows.
They will receive a severe sentence from God at the end of their lives

Jesus, please help religious leaders be good people
