READINGS FOR TODAY
Jeremiah 23: 1-6 Colossians 1: 11-20
Luke 1: 68-79 Luke 23: 33-43
Most High God, majestic and mighty,
our beginning and our end:
rule in our hearts and guide us to be faithful, worshipping the One
who comes as Saviour and Sovereign;
and who lives and reigns with you
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.
Luke 1: 68 – 79
68 “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel,
for he has looked favourably
on his people and redeemed them.
69 He has raised up a mighty saviour for us
in the house of his child David,
70 as he spoke through the mouth
of his holy prophets from of old,
71that we would be saved from our enemies
and from the hand of all who hate us.
72 Thus he has shown the mercy promised
to our ancestors
and has remembered his holy covenant,
73 the oath that he swore to our ancestor Abraham,
to grant us
74 that we, being rescued from the hands
of our enemies, might serve him without fear,
75 in holiness and righteousness
in his presence all our days.
76 And you, child, will be called the prophet
of the Most High,
for you will go before the Lord to prepare his ways,
77 to give his people knowledge of salvation
by the forgiveness of their sins.
78 Because of the tender mercy of our God,
the dawn from on high will break upon us,
79 to shine upon those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the way of peace.”
