An imprecatory prayer: showing the mindset of those who are suffering under persecution and diuress.

The family of Jesus did not believe Him (till the cross and the Resurrection). Don't blaspheme the Holy Spirit and commit the unpardonable sin against the Holy Spirit by refusing to listen to the Spirit's pleas inside of you to repent and turn your life around for God. God is calling you: don't refuse Him or one day, you won't be able to hear Him anymore.

Give justice to the poor and the orphan.

Jesus heals a paralyzed man. Jesus calls Matthew Levi. How did Jesus call you? Jesus talks about casting. Jesus is Lord of - and Higher than - a Sabbath day. He is alive; the Sabbath day is an important symbol in space and time (but it is not alive).

God says: Listen to me, O my people

John the Baptist paves the Way for the coming of the Messiah, Jesus the Christ.

Turn us again to yourself O God.

Honor your mother and Father. We fight against spiritual powers. Whatever your role is in life, remember that we are slaves of Christ first and foremost.

Help us O God of our Salvation!

Living by the Spirit's power
