A Prayer for the day from Edward Dering

O Lord God, Who hast left unto us Thy holy Word  to be a lantern unto our feet, and a light unto our steps: give unto us all Thy Holy Spirit, that out of the same Word we may learn what is Thy eternal will, and frame our lives in all holy obedience to the same, to Thy honour and glory and increase of our faith; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
