Good evening everyone,
Here’s today’s Daily Prayer:
Father, thank you for your Son, Jesus, incarnate on earth. We celebrate His birth. It’s the end of the year, and we celebrate His birth at the end of every year. Even though it isn’t His actual birth date at the end of the year, it is the celebration period—end of the year, closing business, starting a new year. And here we are, starting a new charter.
Because of You, because of the smart people wanting to murder our work—murder the classes below them—the Establishment is ruthless in its need to control, to have power and position, economically, politically, socially, systemically.
At the end of the day, Father, we are just beyond belief grateful, and we have no words. We thank You for everything You’ve done this year, leading up to this day, the 25th of December—this 24th of December, Christmas Eve. We thank You. You know tomorrow we will sit and think and pray and think of Your Son—think of Him now as King and Redeemer.
King of the Kingdom. All authority has been given to Him by the Father, by You, God. And we thank You, because we, every day, with Your grace or with Your Spirit, are closer and closer every day. Please, Father, thinking of those who are struggling—in pain, suffering—we ask You for Your grace, Your mercy, in Your will.
You know why You allow some things and why others You don’t allow. You know why. We don’t always understand it. You always understand it. You know exactly what You’re doing. So, Father, with bowed head and bended knee, we repent. We repent for our sinful state, and we repent for our sinful actions—both primary and secondary.
We ask this through Your Son, Jesus Christ’s name.
Amen.
God’s grace to you,
Paul S. Waugh

2025 was a year I do not think we will ever forget! Our Lord have been refining us in ways that we did know we needed and it makes me wonder what He is preparing us for in 2026! God bless us and every brother and sister across this globe, may we bring in this new year in praise, worship, thanksgiving and deep faith. 🙏
Thank you for the very fitting prayer at year’s end. I feel grateful for this year and how God is guiding us. God bless…Amen
Amen. Appreciating what Christ has done, is doing and will do for us all. I really valued the text description from a video short that was shared with me.
Jesus didn’t come
to fix the system—
He exposed it
by letting it crucify Him.
Rome had laws.
Religion had rituals.
Power had order.
And all of it agreed
on one thing—
Jesus had to go.
That’s when it hit me:
The cross wasn’t proof
the system failed.
It was proof
the system worked exactly as designed.
“Injustice was legal.
Violence was authorized.
Truth was inconvenient.”
So they dressed murder
as justice.
“He was handed over
by the predetermined plan
and foreknowledge of God.”
→ (Acts 2:23)
Jesus didn’t come
to tweak broken structures—
He came to reveal
what they do to truth.
If He had compromised,
they would’ve applauded Him.
If He had conformed,
they would’ve promoted Him.
But He refused.
Because systems don’t kill rebels—
they kill truth-tellers
who won’t bow.
“He was rejected by the elders,
the chief priests,
and the teachers of the law.”
→ (Mark 8:31)
Not criminals.
Leaders.
The cross exposes
how easily morality
can coexist with cruelty.
And that’s the part
we avoid today.
Because if the system
crucified Jesus—
Then anything built on power
instead of truth
will always resist Him.
So when we ask
why Jesus didn’t reform the system—
Remember this:
He exposed it so clearly
that it had no choice
but to kill Him.
Amen! 🙏 Father thank you for the last year and everything it’s brought us and taught us, for being with us and we journey together towards your Kingdom. This is only possible because of the perfect sacrifice of your Son on the cross and I pray this next year we can honour that sacrifice in how we choose to live and serve by your grace. Forgive us our sins and failings as we repent and seek your Kingdom through 2026 .. In Jesus’ name 🙏
