Monday 14 September 2026 - Lifted up
Monday 14 September 2026
Today is Monday the 14th of September, the Exaltation of the Holy Cross, in the 24th week of Ordinary Time. Today, we will pray with the cross of Christ. Checko Ankrah and Nicky Lathbridge sing, ‘High and Lifted’. As you listen, reflect on all the ways in which Christ is “high and lifted up”. You are worthy to be praised You are worthy to be praised You are high and lifted up You are high and lifted up You are high and lifted up Oh Lord You are high and lifted up We're surrounded by Your presence, oh God You are high and lifted up Your glory fills Your glory fills the space, oh God You are high and lifted up I hear the sound of angels I hear the sound of Heaven I see Your glory fill this place, oh God You are high, You are high and lifted up Today’s reading is from the Gospel of John. John 3:13-17 No one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven, the Son of Man. And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in him may have eternal life. For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life. Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Today, we remember and give thanks for all that Jesus has done for the world through his suffering and death on the cross. What place does the cross hold in your life and faith today? Jesus speaks of being ‘lifted up.’ What does it mean for you today that Jesus is lifted up? As you listen again, imagine Jesus on the cross, arms outstretched, drawing the whole world to himself. John 3:13-17 No one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven, the Son of Man. And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in him may have eternal life. For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life. Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. As you conclude this time of prayer, give thanks for the grace and mercy of God, who chooses not to condemn but to save. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be World without end Amen
