1 John 1&2

Lord Jesus, by John’s declaration and eye witness testimony, I know I have fellowship with you and with our Heavenly Father. My joy is full.

I walk in the light, Lord Jesus, for you are the light. You commune with me, and your blood cleanses me from all sin. I am humbled by my human weakness, so I am sober and watchful and quick to see my tendency to sin.

I confess when I fall short, and you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, are faithful and just to forgive me and to cleanse me from all unrighteousness.

I keep my eyes and faith on your word, and you guide me like markers in a channel. You continually perfect the new man who is born in me, and I begin to walk just as you walked, Lord Jesus!

I do not love the foul world system that tries to stand against you, Father. All the foolishness and perversion, all the lies and greed that are in the lost world’s system are not of you.

This world is passing away, and the lust of it. But I gaze upon Jesus as my Lord and Savior, and I have eternal life with you, Father, forever and ever!
