Psalms 119; Hebrews 12; Romans 8; 1 Peter 3; Hebrews 4; 1 Peter 1; John 10

Father, I trust in your word and in your steadfast love for me. I keep my eyes on Jesus the author and finisher of my life story. For the joy of seeing me saved he endured the cross, looking beyond the shame to your glory, father.

Now my Lord Jesus is seated at your right hand making intercession for me and waiting for your kingdom to come on this earth.

Therefore, I sanctify the Lord Jesus in my heart. I ponder his life and meditate on his word, so that I am always ready to give an answer for the hope that lives within me with gentleness and respect to any who ask.

I have your word, father, and it lives and acts within me. By your word I have been born again, and I know that you, Lord Jesus, are the good shepherd. You know me and I know you. I listen to your voice and I follow you. You give me eternal life, and I will never perish, and no one will snatch me out of your hand. You, Lord Jesus, and the father are one.
