Knowledge Comes By Hearing Instructions
BIBLE TEXT
Proverbs 12:1-5
[1] Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge, But he who hates correction is stupid.
[2]A good man obtains favour from the Lord, But a man of wicked intentions He will condemn.
[3]A man is not established by wickedness, But the root of the righteous cannot be moved.
[4]An excellent wife is the crown of her husband, But she who causes shame is like rottenness in his bones.
[5]The thoughts of the righteous are right, But the counsels of the wicked are deceitful.
🎼🎵We are grateful O Lord, (We are grateful Lord)
We are grateful O Lord; (Hallelujah)
For all you have done for us, (our Father)
We are grateful O Lord.🎼🎵
PRAYER
Our dear Father and God, we praise Thee for Your goodness.
We are thankful unto Thee for the peaceful night rest and the sweet new day.
Thank You Lord for our daily bread and good health.
Thank You O Father for giving us blessings far beyond what we deserve.
We acknowledge that all is not right with our nation.
We deeply need a moral and spiritual renewal to help us meet the many problems and challenges we are facing.
Convict our nation of sins and help us to turn to You in repentance and faith.
Set our feet on the path of Your own righteousness and peace.
We pray today for our nation and leaders.
Give them the wisdom to know what is right, and the courage to do same.
You have said, “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.
Be our Lord, O God!
May this moment be a new era for our people, as we humble ourselves and acknowledge You alone as our Saviour and Lord.
May these and the meditations of our hearts make Thee to attend to our supplications. We pray in the holy name of our Lord and Redeemer Jesus Christ. Amen.
