Scripture informs our prayers. Preach it to yourself.

Without god, my father, and Jesus, my Lord, as the way to the father, where would I be? What would I have of any lasting significance?  But with him, by his grace, I have everything pertaining to life and godliness.  Thank you, Lord, for once I was dead, but now I am alive; once I was blind but now I see. I see what I was without you, and I see what I am with you.

I belong to Jesus now. He bought me; lifted me off of the scrapheap of foolish pride  and selfishness, and delivered me into the kingdom of God. Enabled by the Holy Spirit, I am a vessel filled with the Spirit of God; a channel of the living water of God’s gospel to those around me. I am an ambassador of reconciliation between god, the creator, and his creation; a child of the King; saved,  healed, delivered and set free from the bonds of this world.
