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
126: When the Lord delivered Zion from bondage,
it seemed like a dream.
Then was our mouth filled with laughter,
on our lips there were songs. What marvels the Lord worked for
us.
Indeed we were glad. Those who are sowing in tears
will sing when they reap. They go out, full of tears, carrying seed for
the sowing.
They come back, full of song, carrying their sheaves.
Dear God, please bless all
people who are sorrowful as they work
Listen
Ephesians
1.9-13:
God the Father has let us know his sacred
plan:
the whole show, everything in heaven and everything in earth,
is one big orchestra with Christ as the conductor. We Jews are special instruments in the
orchestra.
We were chosen to put our hope in Christ before he came. And you non-Jews are also on the stage,
now that you have believed the truth of the Good News. All of us have been stamped with the Holy
Spirit.
He's the composer whose music we are playing
Father, Son and Holy Spirit, thank you for the
gift of life
and the gift of faith. Help me play well!
Listen
Matthew
4.1-11:
After he was baptized, Jesus spent about 40 days praying and fasting in the
desert.
During this time, he was tempted by Satan. "If you are the Son of God,
change some stones into bread" said Satan. Jesus replied "Human life needs more than
bread.
Life needs God's message". Satan then took Jesus to a high place
and said
"Throw yourself down, since the angels will protect you". Jesus replied
"Presumption is a sin". Then Satan took Jesus to a high mountain
and showed him all the nations of the world. "Worship me and I will give you all these
nations" said Satan. Jesus replied
"Go away, Satan! Only God is to be worshipped". The devil then went away.
Jesus, please protect us from
Satan and from evil

Samuel 12: As the elderly Samuel handed over leadership
to Saul,
he said to all the people:
"In future it is the king who will lead you. The Lord is my witness that I have never
treated you unjustly. You must follow the Lord with all your
heart.
Do not turn your back on the Lord's way.
Do not follow false ways."
Dear God, thank you for the

Please help all people to follow your way, not follow false ways

Psalm

Zion, that cannot be shaken. Jerusalem, the mountains surround her,
so the Lord surrounds his people, now and forever.
Lord, please help us be

Ephesians
1.1-7: From Paul, appointed to be an apostle of
Christ Jesus. Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord
Jesus Christ. Blessed be God the Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ.
Before the world was made, he chose us in Christ,
to live through love in his presence. He chose us, in Christ, to be his adopted
children,
to make us praise the glory of his grace. This grace is his free gift to us in his
Beloved Son,
through whose blood we gain our freedom
and the forgiveness of our sins
Father, thank you for upgrading me from human child to Divine Child!
Listen
Matthew
3.1-17: About 30 years after
Jesus was born,
a man began preaching repentance,
and baptizing people in the river Jordan. This man was John the
Baptist.
His message was
"Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is close at hand". John fulfilled the
prophecy:
"A voice cries in the wilderness: prepare a way for the Lord". John said "I
baptize you with water,
but one is coming who will baptize you with the Holy Spirit".
Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John.
After Jesus was baptized, the heavens opened,
and Jesus saw the Spirit of God coming down on him like a dove. And a voice from heaven
said
"This is my Son, the Beloved.
My favor rests on him"
Jesus,
please help me to prepare your way, like John the Baptist

c.f. readings for Feast of the Epiphany
Isaiah
59-60: Arise, shine
out, for your light has come. The glory of the Lord is rising on you, though the
rest of the world is still in darkness. The nations come to your light and kings
to your dawning brightness. People
from other lands are coming to you, bringing gold and incense and singing the
praise of the Lord. No more will the sun give you daylight, nor moonlight
shine on you, for the Lord himself will be your everlasting light. Then your
days of mourning will be ended.
Lord Jesus, you are the light of the world. Please give more light to my
life.
My
recording of this reading
Psalm
72: O Lord, please
bless the king, that he might serve your people with justice. May
the mountains bring forth peace for the people and the hills, justice. The
kings of Sheba and Seba bring him gifts. All nations will serve him. He
will save the poor when they cry for help and the needy who are helpless. He
will have pity on the weak and save the lives of the poor. May every tribe be
blessed in him. May every nation bless his name.
May all the nations know and love you, Lord
Recording
Ephesians
3.2-6: You have probably heard how I
have been entrusted by God with the grace he meant for you, and that it was by a
revelation that I was given the knowledge of the mystery. This mystery that
has now been revealed through the Spirit to his holy apostles and prophets was
unknown to any men in past generations; it means that pagans
now share the same inheritance, that they are parts of the same body, and
that the same promise has been made to them, in Jesus Christ, through the gospel
Recording
Matthew
2.1-12: Jesus was
born in the town of Bethlehem, during the reign of King Herod. Some months after
Jesus' birth, several wise men from the East came to Jerusalem. They said
"Where is the infant king of the Jews? We saw his star as it rose and
we have come to offer him honor." King Herod felt threatened by this news.
He knew from the Scriptures that the promised Saviour would be born in
Bethlehem. So Herod sent the wise men to Bethlehem, pretending that he too would
like to offer honor to the child. The wise men headed for Bethlehem, guided by
the star. The star filled them with joy. The star stopped over the place where
the child was. The wise men fell to their knees and honored the child. They
offered him gifts of gold, incense and myrrh. Then they returned to their
own country by a different way, having been warned in a dream not to go back to
Herod.
Jesus, help me to honor you like the wise men

1 Samuel 11:
The people of Jabesh-gilead told Saul
that the Ammonites were threatening them. The spirit of the Lord stirred up Saul
and he led the Israelites to a great victory over the Ammonites. Samuel and all the people then went to Gilgal
where Saul was again proclaimed king.
Dear Lord, may your Spirit stir
us up to do good things

Psalm
124:
"If the Lord had not been on our
side",
this is Israel's song. If the Lord had not been on our side
when people rose against us, then would they have swallowed us alive
when they were angry with us. Blessed be the Lord who did not let us become
a prey for their teeth. Our life, like a bird, has escaped
from the snare of the hunter. Indeed the snare has been broken
and we have escaped. Our help is in the name of the Lord
who made heaven and earth.

As for me, the only thing I boast about is the
Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world is crucified to me,

or not.
What matters is that we become a new creature. From now on, I want no more trouble from you.
The scars on my body were suffered for the sake of Jesus. May his grace be with you
Jesus, may I look at everything in the world
from up on your Cross

1.1-14: From

Word became a man, and lived among us. We saw his glory, full of grace
and truth. Many people did not recognize and did not accept the Word. But to
everyone who did accept him, he gave power to become children of God

1 Samuel 9-10:
Among the men of the tribe of Benjamin
there was a very tall and very handsome man named Saul. Once when he went in search of his father's
stray donkeys,
he met up with Samuel. The Lord had told Samuel that he would meet
Saul,
and that he should be anointed as king. And so Samuel took some oil and poured it on
Saul's head.
He told Saul that the Lord had chosen him to be king. Samuel presented Saul to the people.
The people acclaimed Saul saying "Long live the king!"

123: To you have I lifted up my eyes,

bring you news of great joy, a joy to be shared by everyone. Today in the town of David, a savior has been
born to you. He is Christ the Lord. Look for a baby wrapped in swaddling
clothes and lying in a manger". Suddenly with the angel there were many other angels, praising God and singing "Glory to God in
heaven, and peace to people on earth".
"O come let us adore him, O come let us
adore him, O come let us adore him,

Samuel 8:
When Samuel grew old, the people asked him to
find someone
to be their king. Samuel was not happy that the people asked for
a king.
Samuel also warned the people that a king would impose taxes
and have many rights over them. But the people insisted on having a king.
The Lord then told Samuel to give the people a king.
Dear God, you are our only true
King

Psalm
122: I rejoiced when I heard them say
"Let us go to God's house."

I will ask for your good.

Galatians
5.19-26: When self-indulgence is at work, the results
are obvious: sexual irresponsibility, sorcery, feuds and wrangling,
jealousy and drunkenness. What the Spirit brings is very different:
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, truthfulness, gentleness
and self-control. You cannot belong to Christ Jesus unless you
crucify all self-indulgent desires. Let us be directed by the Spirit.
We must stop
being conceited, provocative and envious
Holy Spirit, increase your influence in
my life

Luke
2.1-8: The Emperor of Rome ordered that a census be
taken of the whole
Empire. Every man had to go to his home town to be registered. So Joseph set out from Nazareth in Galilee and
traveled to Judea,
to the town of David called Bethlehem, with his pregnant wife Mary. While they were in Bethlehem, the time came
for Mary to have her child. She gave birth to a son. She wrapped him in
swaddling clothes
and laid him in a feeding box for animals, because there was no room for
them at the local inn
Baby Jesus, born in Bethlehem,
please bless all babies born in the world today
