This morning’s anthem is a prayer, a prayer that asks to see, to love and to follow the Lord Jesus. In the Scripture related to this morning’s message, we see Jesus not only as a teacher in the synagogue, but also as an authority figure who has power to force an evil spirit to flee. This is an attribute of the Savior not so often reflected upon, something akin to forcing the moneychangers to flee from the temple.

This is an attribute of the Savior not so often reflected upon, something akin to forcing the moneychangers to flee from the temple. Christ was authority incarnate—the Word of God made flesh. When he spoke, God spoke. When he commanded, even the demons obeyed. God’s word has power to set people free and to transform lives. As we live each day, we encounter multiple voices calling us in all directions and we must constantly discern which is the voice we listen to, the Jesus casts out demons voice which leads us in faith. God can accomplish great things through us if we forget our weaknesses and follow him day by day. Christ was authority incarnate—the Word of God made flesh. When he spoke, God spoke.

Day by Day is a musical setting of The Prayer of St. Richard of Chichester (1197-1253). Richard, who was Bishop of Chichester for eight years in the mid-13th century, was well acquainted with hard work and suffering. Though a gifted scholar and lawyer, he did not flinch from physical labor; and as Bishop he found himself a homeless outcast in his own diocese, until King Henry III finally accepted his appointment by the Pope. His prayer reflects the commitment needed by those who follow Jesus. St. Richard of Chichester Anthem Notes for January 25, 2015 Page 2 About the anthem.

St. Richard of Chichester The opening words were his prayer as he lay dying: “Thanks be to thee, my Lord Jesus Christ, for all the benefits which thou hast won for me, for all the pains and insults which thou hast borne for me.” According to one biographer, the rest of the prayer, with its well-known rhyming triplet about knowing Jesus more clearly and loving him more dearly and following him more nearly, comes from a later time and shows a profound insight into Richard’s character and spirituality. “For Richard was not about Richard at all; Richard was about Jesus; and the people of Sussex claimed him as their Saint, not because they had seen Richard, but that in Richard they had seen Jesus, his Redeemer, his Friend and his Brother.” The opening words were his prayer as he lay dying: “Thanks be to thee, my Lord Jesus Christ, for all the benefits which thou hast won for me, for all the pains and insults which thou hast borne for me.” According to one biographer, the rest of the prayer, with its well-known rhyming triplet about knowing Jesus more clearly and loving him more dearly and following him more nearly, comes from a later time and shows a profound insight into Richard’s character and spirituality. “For Richard was not about Richard at all; Richard was about Jesus; and the people of Sussex claimed him as their Saint, not because they had seen Richard, but that in Richard they had seen Jesus, his Redeemer, his Friend and his Brother.” The opening words were his prayer as he lay dying: “Thanks be to thee, my Lord Jesus Christ, for all the benefits which thou hast won for me, for all the pains and insults which thou hast borne for me.” According to one biographer, the rest of the prayer, with its well-known rhyming triplet about knowing Jesus more clearly and loving him more dearly and following him more nearly, comes from a later time and shows a profound insight into Richard’s character and spirituality. “For Richard was not about Richard at all; Richard was about Jesus; and the people of Sussex claimed him as their Saint, not because they had seen Richard, but that in Richard they had seen Jesus, his Redeemer, his Friend and his Brother.” Would that our daily prayer would be to “see thee more clearly, love thee more dearly and follow thee more nearly.” Would that our daily prayer would be to “see thee more clearly, love thee more dearly and follow thee more nearly.” Would that our daily prayer would be to “see thee more clearly, love thee more dearly and follow thee more nearly.” K.
