Romans 1

1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God—

2 the gospel he promised beforehand through his prophets in the Holy Scriptures

3 regarding his Son, who as to his earthly life was a descendant of David,

4 and who through the Spirit of holiness was appointed the Son of God in power by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.

5 Through him we received grace and apostleship to call all the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith for his name’s sake.

6 And you also are among those Gentiles who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.

7 To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be his holy people: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

Prayer:

Lord God we thank you for your Word which is truth and life. Thank you that just like you had called Paul as a bond-servant to broadcast your Good News to the nations, you have called us as your saints to proclaim your Gospel through our words and to live out your truths in our lives. Help us to do that Lord Jesus. Bless each one here listening today. Be with them as they go through their day. Allow them to hear your still, small voice and follow you Lord Jesus. Give them ears to hear what the Spirit of the Lord is saying to them and help them be obedient to your Word. In Jesus name, Amen.
