Daily D – Luke 11:5-8

by David Bowman | Sep 1, 2023 | Daily D | 0 comments

Luke 11:5-8 “Then, teaching them more about prayer, he used this story: “Suppose you went to a friend’s house at midnight, wanting to borrow three loaves of bread. You say to him, ‘A friend of mine has just arrived for a visit, and I have nothing for him to eat.’ And suppose he calls out from his bedroom, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is locked for the night, and my family and I are all in bed. I can’t help you.’ But I tell you this—though he won’t do it for friendship’s sake, if you keep knocking long enough, he will get up and give you whatever you need because of your shameless persistence.” (NLT)

One quick thought: God is not a sleeping neighbor who must be rousted out of bed at midnight to attend to your lack. He is our Father in Heaven who invites us to ask, seek, and knock knowing he will answer and provide. (See verses 9 and 10.)

What does this make possible?

What do you need, really need?

What is required to honor God and serve others?

Ask God. Trust God. Give thanks to God.

—

I will go to God with all of my needs trusting him to provide what I need when I need it.

Our Father, thank you for teaching us to depend on you in prayer. Thank you for your dependability. Thank you that you are good and your love endures forever. Amen.

Daily D – Isaiah 6:1-7

Isaiah 6:1-7 “In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying.

And they were calling to one another:

“Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty;
the whole earth is full of his glory.”

At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.

“Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the LORD Almighty.”

Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.”
