Morning Prayer for Tuesday. 2

Posted on by
  1. Lord Jesus Christ, Who alone art the Redeemer of the world, unto Thee do I lift up my heart, my will, and all my senses, to thank Thee that of Thine inexhaustible love and mercy Thou hast this night again preserved me against the craft and power of the evil one. Lord Jesus Christ, Thou art my treasure and my heritage, my salvation is all in Thy hand. I know of none other helper in heaven or earth than Thee alone. Therefore, of Thine unspeakable suffering and anguish, and the inexpressible bitterness of Thy death which Thou, Dear Lord, hast suffered in so great love for so miserable a sinner as I am, I beseech Thee to be gracious and merciful to me; and, do Thou, this day and throughout the days Thou grantest me, bless, prosper, defend, and preserve me from all evil; from this weary, miserable moment henceforth, until the day when Thou wilt graciously call me into eternal joy and blessedness. Grant this for the sake of Thy most Holy Name. Amen. (Pages 234-235)

#25 Part 6 Patient Godliness As We Abstain From Worldly Lusts.

(For when, through a godly prayer, we acquire such heavenly blessings from God, we, out of indebted gratitude, will be motivated to love Him for this and show our thanks. But since we are unable to give or extend anything to Him—since He already owns everything—we consequently turn our love to those whom God loves and has commanded us to love; that is, to our brethren and fellow-believers, to the true believers and godly, and, out of love, bestow upon them all good things to the best of our ability) And with brotherly love, love in general (for even if we especially love the brethren and fellow-believers and show them all kinds of good, love, nevertheless, is not to be boxed in and narrowly confined; instead, it is to be extended to all mankind in general; yes, also towards our enemies (Mat. 5:44, Gal. 6:10)—just as God’s love is granted to all mankind). (Schola Pietatus-Volume 1 by Johann Gerhard, Repristination Press, p. 13)
