Romans 5&6

Father, your word has come to me, and it is clear that sin abounds, but where sin abounds, grace abounds much more. Sin reigned in death, but now, hallelujah, grace reigns, through righteousness, to eternal life through Jesus Christ, my Lord.

By Jesus’s obedience, I, along with many others, am made righteous. I have received the abundance of your grace, Father, and I have received of your gift of righteousness through faith in Christ Jesus, my Lord. Now I reign over death with your everlasting life.

I am raised from the dead by your glory, Father, so that now I walk in the newness of life.

My old man is crucified with Christ so that sin in my body is rendered powerless, and I am no longer a slave to sin.

Therefore, sin no longer reigns in my mortal body, nor do I obey it in its lusts. Now, by the abundance of your grace, Father, and by the gift of your righteousness, Lord Jesus, I am free from sin, and I have become your bond servant.

I belong to you forever. I live now in the fruit of your holiness, Father, and in the end, everlasting life.
