Peace, Sure Hope, and Joy

Philippians 3

Father, today I rejoice in Christ Jesus and in the salvation I have because of his finished work. My salvation is a gift from you, through faith in Christ as your Messiah. I did not “earn” my salvation. I put no confidence in my fleshy actions to earn your love and your gift of salvation.

I do not rely on any righteousness I might have, instead I hold to the righteousness which is from you, Father, through faith in Christ. I know him and the power of his resurrection, and I have fellowship with my Lord Jesus in the tribulation and suffering that comes in this life in the flesh.

I am conformed to you, Lord Jesus, by dying each day to the carnal lusts and being raised with you each day in spirit and in truth.

Today, I forget those things that are behind, and I reach forward to those things which are ahead. Today, I live in your call on my life, Lord, in perfect harmony and communion with you. I am led by your Holy Spirit and filled with peace, sure hope, and joy.
