Holy Spirit, please lead my hand.

Genesis 7

You led Noah to collect clean beasts and fouls by pairs of 7. You gave him 7 days, in warning, to complete the task. You commanded this of him in the 7th chapter of genesis. You wrote to 7 churches in Revelation. Jesus holds 7 stars ( angels of the churches) in His hand; in the midst of the 7 candlesticks (the 7 churches). 7 seals; 7 trumpets; 7 vials of wrath. The Lamb with 7 eyes, 7 horns, which are the 7 spirits of God; indeed the 7 torches burning before the throne. Isaiah 11 and Revelation 3, 4, and 5.

This isn't even all of what mystery of 7 that is engulfed by You.

This same Jesus is the Son of God. The Messiah.

You indeed are a sevenfold mystery, LORD.

You died for our sins on the cross and rose on the 3rd day to justify us before God in the day of judgement.

Forgive us our sins and sanctify us by Your Holy Spirit to be more holy today than yesterday, Father.

Please bless this bread as we break it. The body of Jesus Christ, given for us. Let us eat it all.

Please bless this wine, the blood of the new covenant shed for many (us) for the remission of sins. The blood of Jesus Christ poured out for us. May we drink it all.

In Jesus name amen.
