Psalm 121
I will lift up
mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
2 My help
cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
3 He will not
suffer thy foot to be moved he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Behold, he that
keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD is
thy keeper the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6 The sun
shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD
shall preserve thee from all evil he shall preserve thy soul.
8 The LORD
shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even
for evermore.
ALMIGHTY GOD, who has given us THY only-begotten
SON to take our nature upon HIM, n as at this time to be born of a pure virgin:
Grant that we being regenerate n made THY children by adoption n grace, may
daily be renewed by The HOLY SPIRIT: through the same our LORD JESUS CHRISR,
who Liveth n Reigneth with thee n the same SPIRIT, ever ONE GOD, world without
end..
Amen
Galatians
4:1-7
Now I say,
That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant,
though he be lord of all;
2 But is under
tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
3 Even so we,
when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world
4 But when the
fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made
under the law,
5 To redeem
them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
6 And because
ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts,
crying, Abba, Father.
7 Wherefore
thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God
through Christ.
Matthew
1:18-21
Now the birth
of Jesus Christ was on this wise When as his mother Mary was espoused to
Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
19 Then Joseph
her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example,
was minded to put her away privily.
20 But while
he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in
a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy
wife for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
21 And she
shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS for he shall save
his people from their sins.
Romans 4:8-14
Blessed is the
man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
9 Cometh this
blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also?
for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.
10 How was it
then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in
circumcision, but in uncircumcision.
11 And he
received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith
which he had yet being uncircumcised that he might be the father of all them
that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be
imputed unto them also
12 And the
father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who
also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being
yet uncircumcised.
13 For the
promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his
seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
14 For if they
which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none
effect
Luke 2:15-21
And it came to
pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said
one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come
to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
16 And they
came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.
17 And when
they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them
concerning this child.
18 And all
they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the
shepherds.
19 But Mary
kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
20 And the
shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they
had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.
21 And when
eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was
called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the
womb.
The Epiphany
EPHESIANS
3:1-12
For this cause
I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,
2 If ye have
heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward
3 How that by
revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,
4 Whereby,
when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)
5 Which in
other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto
his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;
6 That the
Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his
promise in Christ by the gospel
7 Whereof I
was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by
the effectual working of his power.
8 Unto me, who
am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach
among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;
9 And to make
all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of
the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ
10 To the
intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be
known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,
11 According
to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord
12 In whom we
have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.
Matthew 2:1-12
Now when Jesus
was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there
came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,
2 Saying,
Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the
east, and are come to worship him.
3 When Herod
the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
4 And when he
had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he
demanded of them where Christ should be born.
5 And they
said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea for thus it is written by the prophet,
6 And thou
Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda for
out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.
7 Then Herod,
when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time
the star appeared.
8 And he sent
them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and
when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him
also.
9 When they
had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the
east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.
10 When they
saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
11 And when
they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother,
and fell down, and worshipped him and when they had opened their treasures,
they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.
12 And being
warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed
into their own country another way.

our days that we may gain a wise heart.. Amen
Psalm 90
LORD, thou
hast been our dwelling place in all generations.
2 Before the
mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the
world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
3 Thou turnest
man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.
4 For a
thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a
watch in the night.
5 Thou
carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep in the morning they are
like grass which groweth up.
6 In the
morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and
withereth.
7 For we are
consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.
8 Thou hast
set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy
countenance.
9 For all our
days are passed away in thy wrath we spend our years as a tale that is told.
10 The days of
our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be
fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut
off, and we fly away.
11 Who knoweth
the power of thine anger? even according
to thy fear, so is thy wrath.
12 So teach us
to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
13 Return, O
LORD, how long? and let it repent thee
concerning thy servants.
14 O satisfy
us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15 Make us
glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us, and the years
wherein we have seen evil.
16 Let thy
work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children.
17 And let the
beauty of the LORD our God be upon us and establish thou the work of our hands
upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.
Revelation
21:1-6
And I saw a
new heaven and a new earth for the first heaven and the first earth were passed
away; and there was no more sea.
2 And I John
saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared
as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard
a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men,
and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself
shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God
shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death,
neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain for the former
things are passed away.
5 And he that
sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me,
Write for these words are true and faithful.
6 And he said
unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will
give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
Luke 12:22-31
And he said
unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life,
what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on.
23 The life is
more than meat, and the body is more than raiment.
24 Consider
the ravens for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor
barn; and God feedeth them how much more are ye better than the fowls?
25 And which
of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit?
26 If ye then
be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest?
27 Consider
the lilies how they grow they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you,
that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
28 If then God
so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into
the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith?
29 And seek
not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful
mind.
30 For all
these things do the nations of the world seek after and your Father knoweth
that ye have need of these things.
31 But rather
seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.
LORD, all that is good comes from you!
THANKS to be you the whole year through.. Amen
Psalm 8
O LORD our
Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.
2 Out of the
mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine
enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.
3 When I
consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which
thou hast ordained;
4 What is man,
that thou art mindful of him? and the
son of man, that thou visitest him?
5 For thou
hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory
and honour.
6 Thou madest
him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things
under his feet
7 All sheep
and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
8 The fowl of
the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of
the seas.
9 O LORD our
Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
Ecclesiastes
3:1-14
To every thing
there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven
2 A time to be
born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is
planted;
3 A time to
kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 A time to
weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5 A time to
cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and
a time to refrain from embracing;
6 A time to
get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 A time to
rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8 A time to
love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
9 What profit
hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?
10 I have seen
the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.
11 He hath made
every thing beautiful in his time also he hath set the world in their heart, so
that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the
end.
12 I know that
there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life.
13 And also
that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it
is the gift of God.
14 I know
that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever nothing can be put to it, nor
any thing taken from it and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
Luke 9:57-62
And it came to
pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will
follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
58 And Jesus
said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son
of man hath not where to lay his head.
59 And he said
unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my
father.
60 Jesus said
unto him, Let the dead bury their dead but go thou and preach the kingdom of
God.
61 And another
also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell,
which are at home at my house.
62 And Jesus
said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is
fit for the kingdom of God.
May GOD watch over you this coming year n
BLESS you with wise heart..

In The name of our LORD JESUS CHRIST.. Amen
