Scriptural Ground

Likewise, the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark (James 3:5 NIV).

Prayer of Approach

Sovereign Lord, your presence is eternal, your strength is beyond compare, your wisdom guides all of life. Surely you are the God who is to be praised for you have done great and mighty things to bring people to yourself that they may know you as the Saviour for whom they have been searching. Your Name is glorified in the lives of those who tell of your wondrous love, your deep compassion, your boundless mercy, your everlasting grace, your enduring faithfulness. Through the gift of speech you are able to unveil the pathway to life that is eternal. Cause the truth of your presence among us to be shared with those who are in need of true encounter with you.

Through the living Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, hear this prayer. Amen.

A Moment With God

When words leave the mouth of the one who uttered them there is no way to retrieve them and prevent them from being heard. Great care, then, must be taken in selecting the words to be spoken, lest it be discovered that they do not serve to advance the purposes of God. What a privilege it is to speak for Him who is the Saviour, to communicate an awareness of His will to those who are willing to discover it. It is appropriate, then, to choose paths of thought that have arisen out of repeated encounters with the presence of God that will produce words that reflect His intervention as we communicate with those around us.

About the Lord


The Bible teaches that "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23 NIV). It is also written that "the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 6:23 NIV). Do you know that "God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" John 3:16 NIV)? It is also written: "He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed." (1 Peter 2:24 NIV). Jesus said: "I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in" (Revelation 3:20 NIV). Dear friend, what is happening in your life? Are you experiencing the effects of sin, the evidence of death? Jesus died on the cross, bearing your sins so that you would not perish in death. Do hear His invitation to open your being and your life to Him that you may not continue to perish. Say this prayer that you may receive God's gift of eternal life right now: Lord Jesus, there is the presence of sin and the evidence of death in my life. Thank you for bearing my sins on the Cross. I need the gift of eternal life. In your Name, Lord Jesus, I do now open every door of my being and of my life to you. Come in and let me experience all that eternal life is meant to be for me. Thank you for hearing my prayer. Amen.
