Tuesday

Psalm 97, 99, [100] & 94, [95]

Hosea 4:1-10

Acts 21:1-14

Luke 5:12-26

Psalm 97 | A hymn celebrating God who rules over the universe |
The Lord is King - righteousness and justice is the foundation of
God’s rule. The people rejoice. God preserves the saints. Rejoice!

Acts 21 | Paul continues to travel to Jerusalem where it is prophesied
that he will be arrested by the Jews |
They greeted the believers at all places; they heard the prophecy but
wanted Paul not to go; God’s will be done.

Luke 5 | Jesus heals and teaches |
Jesus healed a man with leprosy; the word spread about his healings;
He went off to pray; four friends tore a roof apart to lower a friend
And Jesus said your sins are forgiven; leaders thought he said blasphemy
But Jesus said what is easier to forgive and tell him to walk- he told the
guy to get up and walk and the man walked and praised God.
