Ps. 50 & [59, 60] or 19, 46 Gen. 39:1-23 1 Cor. 2:14––3:15
Mark 2:1-12

Psalm 50
God reveals God in glory; I am your God; offer to God a
sacrifice of thanksgiving; Don’t forget God;

Keep the way of God and experience salvation.

1 Corinthians 2 | Background
Paul - those that are spiritual have the mind of Christ;

I fed you milk and not solid food spiritual: we are only God’s;

God gives the growth; we are God’s servants; Jesus Christ
is the foundation to build faith.

Mark 2 | Background

Jesus was at Capernaum; he healed; a paralytic was healed - your

sins are forgiven - some questioned - Jesus knowing their doubt

told the man to get up and walk and the man did. What is Jesus’
authority? from God alone.

Prayers and Intercessions | Mission St Clare | Book of Common Prayer

Lent - Year B (Mark)

Collect for the Day:

Almighty God, whose blessed Son was led by the Spirit to be tempted
by Satan: Come quickly to help us who are assaulted by many temptations;
and, as you know the weaknesses of each of us, let each one find you
mighty to save; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and
reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

For Mission

O God and Father of all, whom the whole heavens adore:

Let the whole earth also worship you, all nations obey you, all tongues
confess and bless you, and men and women everywhere love you and
serve you in peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

A Collect for Guidance

Heavenly Father, in you we live and move and have our being:

We humbly pray you so to guide and govern us by your Holy Spirit,

that in all the cares and occupations of our life we may not forget you,

but may remember that we are ever walking in your sight;

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
