My Rock, My Deliverer

Ps 18&16; John 14&13

I love you, oh Lord, my strength. You, Lord, are my rock and my fortress and my deliver. You are my God; my rock, in whom I take refuge.  You are my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I call upon you, Lord; you who are worthy to be praised. You have made known to me the path of life.

My heart is glad and my whole being rejoices; my flesh dwells secure. I am in Christ Jesus and he is the way, the truth and the life, and I come to God, my heavenly father, through him.  I am in Christ and in his presence is fullness of joy; at his right hand are pleasures forever more. I set you, Lord Jesus, always before me. I am near you and I shall not be shaken.  I trust in your steadfast love. My heart rejoices in my salvation. I sing to you, father, and to you, Holy Spirit, and to you, Lord Jesus, because you all have dealt bountifully with me.

Living In The Light

John 1&3

Thank you, Lord Jesus, that you have made the father known to me. I believe that you are the word of God, the son of God, the Messiah. I receive you and believe on your name. I believe that you, Lord Jesus, are God and that you took on flesh and dwelt among men.  I see your glory alive in those that are yours; the glory of the only son, from the father, full of grace and truth. From your fullness I have received grace upon grace.  Grace and truth come to me through you, Lord Jesus.

You are the Christ. Behold, you are the lamb who takes away the sin of the world.  You are the son of God! I have been born again! I have been born once of the flesh and again born of the Spirit of God.  Jesus is the light of God and the light has come into the world. Now by god’s grace I live in the light so that it may be clearly seen that my works are carried out in God.

Keep Me

John 17&16

Thank you, Lord Jesus, that you made known to me my heavenly father and that now you continue to make him known to me, so that the love with which he loves you will be in me and you will dwell in me.

You have given me the word of my heavenly father and I have received it and come to know that you, Lord Jesus, came from the father and were sent to save those people that are god’s.  Father, keep me, in the name of Jesus, that I may be one with you, as you and the Lord Jesus are one!  You have told me these things that in Christ I have peace. In this world there is tribulation but I take heart because Jesus, the Christ, has overcome the world, and I am in Christ and Christ is in me!

At All Times In Every Way

2 Thess. 2&3

Good morning, father, direct my heart today to the love you have for me and to the steadfastness of Jesus, my Lord! You, oh Lord, are faithful. You establish me and guard me against the evil one.  Lord, thank you for eternal comfort and good hope through your grace. Thank you that you comfort my heart and establish me in every good work.

I give thanks to you, father, because you chose me as first fruits to be saved through sanctification by your Holy Spirit, and belief in your word; your truth.  You called me to you through the gospel so that I obtain the glory of my Lord Jesus. So I stand firm and hold onto all I have been taught.  Make me worthy of your calling and fulfill every resolve for good and every work of faith that you have for me by your power.  Today, oh Lord, give me your peace at all times and in every way. Be with me, Lord! Thank you.

Tomorrow

Good morning, heavenly father. Fill me, Holy Spirit, and take charge of my thoughts, will and emotions. I thank you that today I am led by the Spirit of God. I am Christ’s and Christ is God’s.  Therefore, I am not anxious about my life; about what I shall eat or wear. My life in Christ is much more than the “things” of this world. The birds of the air neither sow nor reap and yet my heavenly father feeds them. You assure me, father, that I am of great value to you; more than the birds of the air.

Being anxious does not add a single hour to my life. If God clothes the grass of the field will He not much more clothe me. My Heavenly Father knows everything I need. I seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things are added to me. I do not worry about tomorrow. My father takes care of tomorrow and today .

Holy

1 Cor. 3:26; 4:7; 2:14

I am God’s temple and God’s spirit lives in me. Because of your presence, father, the temple is holy and I am the temple.

I am not deceived by this age. I have become a fool for Christ that I may be wise. “My God, you know the craftiness and thoughts of the wise and they are futile”. So I do not boast about me; where I came from or what I accomplished; for it is all about you, father, God.  In Christ, “all is His, and I am in Christ, and Christ is god’s. ”

Everything I have I received from God, my father, so why would I boast as if I had not received it as a gift. God gives the growth. Sometimes I water and sometimes I plant, but it is God who gives life and growth.  The things of God are from the Spirit of God. The flesh cannot understand them because they are spiritually discerned.

Chosen

I Chron 28:9; 22:19; Jere 29:14; Ps 105:3; 106:13

Lord, you have chosen me to build, by your grace I am strong and will do the things you have for me to do. I know you, Lord, and serve you with my whole heart and with a willing mind. I seek you and I find you!  You search my heart and you understand my every plan and thought.

I set my mind and heart to seek you, oh Lord, my God. I call upon you, Lord, and I come to you and I pray to you and you hear me. I seek you with all my heart and I find you!  You, oh Lord, let me find you. You restore my fortunes and gather me to you. You bring me back to you, my great God!

I glory in your holy name and my heart rejoices as I seek you. I seek you, Lord, and your strength; I seek your presence continually.  I remember your works in my life, and I wait on your counsel. Thank you, Jesus, these things are mine!

Draw Near

Heb 11:6; 2 Chron 16:9; I Chron 16:8

Heavenly father, I draw near to you. I believe you are God; God of earth below and heaven above, and I know you are a rewarder of those who seek you.  Thank you for the gift of faith. I understand that the universe was created by your word, father. Your name, father, is a strong tower and I run to it and I am kept safe

Help my heart stay fixed on you, father, and help me be pleasing to you, Lord, for I know that your eyes run to and fro throughout the whole earth to give strong support to the person whose heart is blameless toward you!  By your grace I am one of those persons! I seek you, Lord, and your strength. I seek your presence continuously.  You are always with me and you never leave me. I give thanks to you, Lord, and call on your name. I sing to you and tell of your wondrous works. I glorify your holy name.

Forever Firmly Fixed

Ps 119:110-143; Ps 32

Forever, oh Lord, your words are firmly fixed in the heavens. Your faithfulness endures to all generations.  Your word tastes sweet to me; sweeter than honey! Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. I do not stray from your precepts.  Your testimonies are a joy to my heart. I love your law. You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in your word.

Thank you that you deal with me according to your steadfast love. Teach me your statutes. I am your servant and you give me understanding.  You are righteous, oh Lord, your commandments are my delight!

You, Lord Jesus, are a hiding place for me; your preserve me from trouble and you surround me with shouts of deliverance. You instruct me and teach me in the way I must go.  You counsel me and keep your eye on me. Your steadfast love surrounds me. I am glad and I rejoice. I shout with joy.

He Is Holy

In faith I prepare my mind for action. I am sober minded and I set my hope fully on the grace that is brought to me at the revelation of Jesus, the Christ.  As your obedient child, father, I am no longer conformed to the passion of my former ignorance.  You have called me to be holy in all my conduct as you are holy. You have written to me, father, your command that I, ” be holy as you are holy”.

I call on you, father. I pray to conduct myself with reverent fear throughout the rest of my life in this flesh since you are my impartial judge.  By your grace I am ransomed from the futile ways of my past and the “world’s” system. I am ransomed not with perishable things, like my own good deeds, but with the precious blood of Jesus.  He bought me. I belong to God. I live and breathe out of that place. That is: Christ in me, me in Christ, Christ in God!  I am holy because he is holy !!
