Luke 1

Blessed are you, Almighty God, my father. You are with me, and you have redeemed me. You have raised Jesus, my savior, up clearly in front of my eyes. You promised through your prophets from the very beginning of the world that Jesus would be my salvation.

Through Christ Jesus I am saved from guilt, condemnation, and death. The devils cannot touch me because I belong to you, father, through Christ, and I am guarded by you, Holy Spirit.

You fill me with your presence and mercy. I remember your covenant. You have granted me redemption and delivered me from bondage so that I can serve you without fear. I am in communion with you, father, in holiness and righteousness all the days of my life.

I am now an instrument in your hands, father. I walk with you. Through me you give knowledge of your salvation to others. You speak through my life to others of the remission of sin and of your tender mercy.

You make my life a light to those who sit in darkness and who are under the shadow of death. You guide our feet into the way of peace.
