+ MORNING +

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

In the morning, O Lord, You hear my voice;

in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for You and watch.

My mouth is filled with Your praise,

and with Your glory all the day.

O Lord, open my lips,

and my mouth will declare Your praise.

Psalm 38:

      O Lord, rebuke me not in your anger,

nor discipline me in your wrath!

          For your arrows have sunk into me,

and your hand has come down on me.

          There is no soundness in my flesh

because of your indignation;

            there is no health in my bones

because of my sin.        

          O Lord, all my longing is before you;

my sighing is not hidden from you.

    10      My heart throbs; my strength fails me,

and the light of my eyes—it also has gone from me.

    11      My friends and companions stand aloof from my plague,

and my nearest kin stand far off.

    21      Do not forsake me, O Lord!

O my God, be not far from me!

    22      Make haste to help me,

O Lord, my salvation!

Luke 4:31-44

Jesus Heals a Man with an Unclean Demon

31 And he went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee. And he was teaching them on the Sabbath, 32 and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word possessed authority. 33 And in the synagogue there was a man who had the spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice, 34 “Ha! What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God.” 35 But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent and come out of him!” And when the demon had thrown him down in their midst, he came out of him, having done him no harm. 36 And they were all amazed and said to one another, “What is this word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!” 37 And reports about him went out into every place in the surrounding region.

Jesus Heals Many

38 And he arose and left the synagogue and entered Simon’s house. Now Simon’s mother-in-law was ill with a high fever, and they appealed to him on her behalf. 39 And he stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her, and immediately she rose and began to serve them.

40 Now when the sun was setting, all those who had any who were sick with various diseases brought them to him, and he laid his hands on every one of them and healed them. 41 And demons also came out of many, crying, “You are the Son of God!” But he rebuked them and would not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.

Jesus Preaches in Synagogues

42 And when it was day, he departed and went into a desolate place. And the people sought him and came to him, and would have kept him from leaving them, 43 but he said to them, “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well; for I was sent for this purpose.” 44 And he was preaching in the synagogues of Judea.

Lord’s Prayer

Daily Prayer

O Lord, rebuke us not in your anger, nor discipline us in your wrath! For You are the God of our salvation and we pray that You would protect us by Your Holy Spirit. Bless our families such that husbands and wives would reflect the love for each other that they have received through Christ and would be models of faithfulness for their children. Strengthen and comfort those in broken homes and those who grieve the loss of loved ones that they may know Your peace that passes all understanding and the love of their heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, amen.

Luther’s Morning prayer

I thank You, my heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, Your dear Son, that You have kept me this night from all harm and danger; and I pray that You would keep me this day also from sin and every evil, that all my doings and life may please You. For into Your hands I commend myself, my body and soul, and all things. Let Your holy angel be with me, that the evil foe may have no power over me. Amen.
