Fed and Led

1 Timothy 6; Colossians 3

Hallelujah, Lord, today fed with your word and led by your Holy Spirit, I pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and gentleness. I trust in you, Father, and you give me richly all things to enjoy. Your peace rules in my heart.

The word of Christ dwells in me richly in all wisdom. Your word, Lord, teaches and admonishes me in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs. I sing to you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, with grace in my heart.

Whatever I do today, in word or deed, I do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, and I give thanks to you, my Heavenly Father, through him. Whatever I do, I do it hardly unto you, Lord, knowing that from you, I receive the reward of your inheritance, for I serve you, Lord Jesus, my savior and the Father‘s Messiah.

Conveyed

Colossians 1

Thank you, Father, that by your grace and with your Holy Spirit, I am filled with the knowledge of your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. Today I walk worthy of you, Lord, and I am fully pleasing and fruitful in every good work.

Your Holy Spirit shows me more about you, and we commune together, and my knowledge of you, Father, increases, and my faith is strengthened.

Your might and power fill me in the person of your Holy Spirit, and I bear your fruit. I am patient with joy. I abound in thanksgiving and live in peace.

I am a partaker of the inheritance of the saints in light. You have delivered me from darkness, Father, and conveyed me into the kingdom of your son, my Lord Jesus. In him, I have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sin.

He has reconciled me to you, Father, in the body of his flesh through death, and now, he presents me holy and blameless and above reproach to you. I stand solid and grounded in this glorious hope, reconciled to you, Father, through the gospel of Christ!! 

Rest and Rejoice

Ephesians 2; 2 Timothy 2; Ephesians 2

Good morning, Father, today I am humble before you. I look out not only for my interest, but for the interest of others. By your presence in me, Holy Spirit, I have the mind which was also in Christ Jesus.

He made himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bond servant and coming in the likeness of man. He humbled himself even to the point of death, and you, my Heavenly Father, highly exalted him, and have given him the name which is above every name.

At the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the Earth, and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to your glory, Father.

My proper and accurate relation to you, Lord Jesus, is all that really matters, so I take my salvation very seriously. I study to show myself approved and living in correct doctrine, and I seek you in every thought and decision.

You work out everything in my life, both my will, and my ability to work your work in a way that pleases you. I rest in that surety, and I rejoice in peace. 

To The Truth

Romans 12; Philippians 1

Thank you, Father. I am transformed as you have renewed my mind with your word and by the power and presence of your Holy Spirit, who dwells in me. Now my new man and my new mind flourish in me just as in Christ Jesus

I am confident that you, Father, will complete the work you have begun in me. I am a partaker of your grace, just like the Apostles. I pray that your love will fill me and that, by your divine presence, my love will perfect and abound in knowledge and discernment.

I will live in ways that are excellent. I will live sincerely and without offense. I am filled with the fruit of Christ’s righteousness all the days of my life here on earth to your glory and praise, Lord, and for my good and joy.

All the events in my life have been used by you, Father, to further your gospel in me. In confidence, I pray that I will be bold to speak your word to those who ask and seek. I pray that my life now, in every way, would speak and witness to the truth of Christ Jesus! 

Covered

Ephesians 5&6

Lord Jesus, you have loved me, and you have given yourself for me. Now I walk in the light, for you are the light of men, Lord. You are the true light. You shine in the darkness, and for all who are yours, the light prevails. Those who are not called by you do not comprehend the light.

Now I seek you, Lord, and your ways. I want to live a life acceptable and pleasing to you. I understand what your will for me is. I am filled with your spirit.

I speak out to all in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs. I make melody in my heart to you, Lord, giving thanks always, for all things, to God, our father, in your name, Lord Jesus.

I love my wife, as you, Lord, are my example of love. I give myself for her. We live together in your word, and she grows strong and sweet in your spirit. I want to be all she needs in a husband. Make that so, Holy Spirit.

Now, I stand strong in you, Lord, and in the power and presence of you, Holy Spirit, as you dwell in me and lead me in truth, faith, and righteousness. I am covered by the armor of God, our father, and I am able to withstand in the evil day and do all you have for me to do Lord. I can stand. 

True Righteousness and Holiness

Ephesians 4; Romans 8; Ephesians 4

Thank you, Lord Jesus, for your ministry gifts to those who minister to your body, the church, so that all who are in your body would be edified, that we would come to a unity of the faith and knowledge of the “true” Jesus.

Through your ministry gifts, I am perfected toward the measure of your character, Lord Jesus. By your spirit and your word, I am conformed to the image of you, my Lord Jesus Christ.

Now I am no longer a child tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine and by the trickery of man. No, now I speak the truth in love, and I grow up daily in all the fullness of your lordship, Lord Jesus.

I am joined together, by the Holy Spirit, with other believers, and we are knit together in a body that serves you, and grows and strengthens itself in love.

I know you, Lord Jesus, and your grace has taught me to put off, constantly, my old man, who is corrupt and lustful, and to be renewed, moment by moment, in the spirit of my mind, and then to put on my new man, born from above; a man who is created, according to God, in true righteousness and holiness. 

Big and Bold and Eternal

Ephesians 3; 1 Corinthians 1; Ephesians 3

Father, thank you for grace to see your unsearchable riches in Christ. Now I am born from above, by your Holy Spirit, and in fellowship with your divine mystery, which, from the beginning of ages has been hidden in you, Father, who created all things through Jesus Christ, your son and my Lord and Savior.

Now I live in you, Father, with Christ as wisdom, redemption, righteousness, and sanctification for me. I live according to your divine purposes, which you accomplish in Christ Jesus. I have boldness and access, with confidence, to you, Father, through Christ, my intercessor.

I do not lose heart in this life. You encourage me and strengthen me to your praise and glory.

You grant me, according to the riches of your glory, strength in my inner man through the person and power of your Holy Spirit. Christ dwells in me now through faith. I am rooted and grounded in your sovereign, all powerful love, Father.

I am able to comprehend, with all your other children, how big and bold and eternal is your love for your son and his creation, and I believe and feel the love Christ Jesus has for me, a love which goes way beyond anything I can ask or think. A love powered and perfected by your very person, God, the Spirit. 

I Am Yours, and You Are Mine

Ephesians 3; Colossians 1; Ephesians 1

Thank you, Father, for knowledge of the mystery of Christ. In earlier ages, the sons of men did not know these things, but now, you have revealed to your apostles and prophets, and to me, through their written word, the way of your mysterious purpose and means of your mysterious plan.

You purpose that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs of the same body and partakers of your promise in Christ, through your gospel. You accomplish your plan by placing your Holy Spirit in each of us, Jew or Gentile, who you have predestined to be yours: Christ in me, my sure hope of glory.

So now, by your grace through faith, I am included in Christ, because I heard your word of truth, your gospel, and I believed it. I am sealed by your Holy Spirit, Father, who dwells in me and leads me and is a guarantee to me that I am yours, and you are mine, until my redemption as your purchased bond servant and son, to the praise of your glory and grace. 

Ordained Beforehand

Ephesians 2

I was once far off, separated from God, and without hope in this world. But now, in Christ Jesus, I have been brought near by your blood, Lord Jesus. You, yourself, are my peace. You have made me one with you and the Father.

You have created a new man in me. Now I am forgiven and redeemed and brought back to God, our father. I am reconciled to God and made a part of your body, Lord Jesus, through your cross. Through you, I have access, by one spirit, to God and to the kingdom of God.

Now I am no longer a stranger or a foreigner, instead, I am a fellow citizen with the saints and a member of your household, Lord God. Your house is built on the foundation of the apostles and the prophets, with you, Lord Jesus, as the chief cornerstone.

In you, the whole building is fitted together and grows into a holy temple to our father, while I and all who believe are made a dwelling place for you, Holy Spirit.

I am led by you, Holy Spirit, and I walk in the good works that God, our father, ordained to beforehand to be my mission.

Heavenly Places

Ephesians 1&2

Good morning, Father. You are the Father of Glory and the God of my Lord Jesus Christ. You have called me and chosen me. Thank you for your grace and mercy.

You give to me the spirit of wisdom and revelation, through the living communing knowledge of you. The eyes of my understanding are enlightened. I begin to know the hope of your calling, and I see the riches of the glorious inheritance I have as your son

I believe you, Father, and your word of salvation. You have worked your mighty power in Christ, and now Christ works in me. You made me alive when I was dead in sin and trespasses.

I once walked, according to the course of this world, living as if I was a son of disobedience. But you, Father, because of your great love for me, in your rich mercy, even while I was dead in trespasses, chose to make me alive together with Christ

By grace, you saved me, through faith, and raised me up together and placed me in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Now I belong to you. I am one of your masterpieces.
