Psalm 66 | Individual Psalm of Thanksgiving | Background
Have joy and rejoice in the Lord;
Sing to the Lord;
See God’s wonderful deeds;
Bless our God you people;
You tested us but you brought of into a place of refreshment;
God has heard my prayer ...
Galatians 4 & 5 | Paul writes ...
Are you a child of the law or the gospel - slavery or free?
We are children of the promise - we are free and don’t submit to slavery.
Mark 8 |
Jesus gathered the crowd and he instructed his disciples to feed them; he gave thanks and took seven loaves and two fish and made more than enough food for the entire crowd; even with leftovers.
Canticle 16 The Song of Zechariah
Luke 1:68-79
Benedictus Dominus Deus
Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel;*
he has come to his people and set them free.
He has raised up for us a mighty savior,*
born of the house of his servant David.
Through his holy prophets he promised of old,
that he would save us from our enemies,*
from the hands of all who hate us.
he promised to show mercy to our fathers*
and to remember his holy covenant.
This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham,*
to set us free from the hands of our enemies,
Free to worship him without fear,*
holy and righteous in his sight
all the days of our life.
You, my child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High,*
for you will go before the Lord to prepare his way,
To give his people knowledge of salvation*
by the forgiveness of their sins.
In the tender compassion of our God*
the dawn from on high shall break upon us,
To shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death,*
and to guide our feet into the way of peace.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
