1 John 4&5

Lord Jesus, I believe you are the Messiah. You came and lived and died and rose again to birth many people into your kingdom, to make us brethren. I love the brethren, and I believe you are the Father’s deliverer, so I know I am born of God, our father.

I love your word, Lord Jesus, and I keep my eyes on your word, and your words order my thoughts. I am filled with faith by your word, Lord, and that gives me victory over the temptations and tests of the world.

I am of you, Father, because I have been born a second time, this time by your Holy, eternal, Spirit, who has birthed a new, spiritual man in me. This new man is perfect, with your person and your nature, Father.

Now I am able to overcome the world, the flesh, and the demonic, because he who is alive in me is greater than all that is in the world; greater than the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and greater than the pride and vanity of life in the flesh.

I know I abide in you, Father, and I know you abide in me, because you have given me your spirit. Your spirit communes with me and witnesses to me every day and all day.
