37 Jesus said to him, "'You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.' 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' Matthew 22:37-39 (NKJV)
     Holy Spirit, please help us get the order straight: God first and neighbor second. The church has gone off the rails by reversing the order and putting neighbor before God.

1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To the pilgrims of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, 2 elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, for obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied. 1 Peter 1:1-2 (NKJV)
     Holy Trinity, One God, help us receive the fullness of this blessing.

10 "And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will look on Me whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him as one mourns for his only son, and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn. Zechariah 12:10 (NKJV)
     Jesus, please give us the Spirit of grace and supplication. Thank you for being pierced for us.

1 Sing aloud to God our strength; Make a joyful shout to the God of Jacob. 2 Raise a song and strike the timbrel, The pleasant harp with the lute. Psalm 81:1-2 (NKJV)
     God, help us join in this song of praise and adoration of you.

7 And also the word of the LORD came by the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasha and his house, because of all the evil that he did in the sight of the LORD in provoking Him to anger with the work of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam, and because he killed them. 1 Kings 16:7 (NKJV)
     LORD, help our rulers cease provoking you to anger by their evil deeds and words.

A Word Received: When I Am ready, I will strike down all those who lead my people astray and defy my word to them.
