God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, (Hebrews 1:1)
Holy Father, please us heed your word to us by your prophets; write the words of David, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Micah, and all your prophets on our hearts.
has in these last days spoken to us by his son, whom he has appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the worlds; (Hebrews 1:2)
Dear Jesus, continue to speak to us and to your church; help us hear what you are saying.
who being the brightness of his glory and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, (Hebrews 1:3)
Jesus, let the brightness of your light shine forth through the Diocese of Albany and throughout the Episcopal Church.
having become so much better than the angels, as he has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. (Hebrews 1:4)
Holy Spirit, help us bring honor to the name of Jesus today. Thank you.
Then Moses called Joshua and said to him in the sight of all Israel, “Be strong and of good courage, for you must go with this people to the land which the Lord has sworn to their fathers to give them, and you shall cause them to inherit it. And the Lord, he is the one who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed.” (Deuteronomy 31:7-8 )
Father, as you enabled Moses and Joshua to go forth at your word, help us in our generation to go forth into all that you have prepared for us to do. Thank you.
