MORNING/MIDDAY OFFICE
- Silence and Stillness before God (2 minutes)
- Scripture Reading: Mark 11:15 – 17 (NIV)
On reaching Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves, and would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts. And as he taught them, he said, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations’? But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’”
MIDDAY/EVENING OFFICE
- Silence, Stillness, and Centering before God (2 minutes)
- Scripture Reading: 1 Samuel 15:22 – 23 (NIV)
But Samuel replied: “Does the LORD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the LORD? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams. For rebellion is like the sin of divination, and arrogance like the evil of idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the LORD, he has rejected you as king.”
