Verse of the day
Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful, as you pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains.

Today’s Bible reading
Proverbs 9:12–18 · Colossians 4 · Jeremiah 12–13
Righteous are You, O LORD (Jeremiah 12:1), and we come to You together today. You made Your people to cling to You the way a loincloth clings to a man's waist, so that we might be Your people for Your renown and praise and glory (Jeremiah 13:11). Forgive us for the times we have not listened. We confess that we cannot change our own hearts any more than a leopard can change his spots (Jeremiah 13:23). Thank You for the grace of Jesus that makes us new.
Teach us to devote ourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful (Colossians 4:2). Keep us alert to the loud voice of Folly that calls, "Stolen water is sweet, and bread eaten in secret is tasty!" (Proverbs 9:17). Help us turn away from every hidden sin and walk in Your wisdom and life.
Lord, open to us a door for the word. Help us proclaim the mystery of Christ and declare it clearly, as we should (Colossians 4:3–4). At school, at work and around our tables, let our speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt. Help us act wisely toward outsiders, redeeming the time (Colossians 4:5–6).
Make us like Epaphras, wrestling in prayer for one another, so that we may stand mature and fully assured in the full will of God (Colossians 4:12). We remember those who are in chains for the gospel today. Let Your grace be with them, and with us. In Jesus' name we pray.
Amen.
