2 Timothy 4; Colossians 3

Thank you, father, for your perfect faithfulness. You stand with me and you strengthen me. You deliver me from every evil work, and you preserve me for your heavenly kingdom.

I am watchful in all things. I endure afflictions. I do the ministry work that you use me for, father. By your grace and communion, father, I fight a good fight. I run a good race, and I keep strong in the faith.

You are the righteous judge and you hold in heaven a crown of righteousness for me. You will give it to me on that day, your day, and not to me only but to all who love your appearing.

Whatever I do today, in word or in deed, I do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to you, father, through him. Whatever I do, I do it heartily, as to you, Lord Jesus, and not to men. I know that from you, lord, I received the reward of the inheritance for I serve you, the Lord Jesus Christ.
