Complete and Alive

Psalm 19;1 Peter 1; 1 John 1; Hebrews 10; Romans 9

Your scripture, oh Lord, is complete and alive, and it has converted my soul. By your living word, your incorruptible seed, I have been born again.

Your Holy Spirit witnesses truth to me, and I am made wise. Your Apostles bear witness to me what they have heard and seen with their own eyes. They affirm and declare that you, Father, have eternal life and that that life manifests to me through fellowship with you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Your precepts are exactly right, and your rightness fills me with joy in a hateful and foolish world. Your commandments give me good leading and keep me holy before you and among men.

I have great reverence for you, Father and that fear holds me and cleans me. You are Almighty God, and I exalt you. In you, I have cleansing, and my heart is sprinkled from an evil conscience.

Your judgments are all together true and righteous, Father. You are the potter. Your creation is the clay. If you will, you can make vessels of honor headed for mercy and vessels of dishonor fitted out for destruction. All this is to make your power and mercy known.

You are God, and there is no other. You set the standard, and you rule the kingdom.

I Have Seen Your King

Isaiah 6; Matthew 3; Isaiah 6; 2 Corinthians 5

Holy, holy, holy, are you, Father. You are the Lord of Hosts, and the whole earth is filled with your glory. You sit on your throne, high and lifted up, and the train of your presence fills every place and everything.

You have ministered to me, Lord. I see that I am unclean and lost, and I dwell in the midst of others who are unclean and lost.

But, by your grace, I have seen your King. Your Holy Spirit has touched me. I have been baptized with water and fire from the Lord Jesus. My iniquity is taken away, and my sin is purged.

Now, by your grace, I hear, and I understand. I see, and I perceive. My heart is sharp for your love, Lord. I hear, and my eyes are open. I see, and I hear, and I understand your will and your way, Lord.

You have touched my heart. I have returned to you, my Lord and Savior, and I am healed and made new and reconciled to God, my Father.

Careful to Not Drift Away

Hebrews 2; Romans 12; Hebrews 2

Father, I give earnest heed to your word. I draw close to you, careful not to drift away. By your grace, you have given me a great salvation. I do not neglect it.

Jesus, your Christ, spoke of this salvation, and then the apostles wrote of it, and you, Father, bore witness to the truth of it with signs and wonders and even miracles. You bore witness to me personally through the move of your Holy Spirit in my life.

Your Spirit convicted me and showed me myself and taught me. You communed with me through your Spirit and your word. Events and circumstances and provisions occurred, and occur in my life that show me your presence with me and your hand upon me. You renew my mind to your real eternal salvation, and I am transformed.

Now I know that Jesus is the Captain of my salvation, and he proved his perfection by the things that he suffered. Now he who sanctifies and I who am sanctified are all miraculously of one stock. That is why Jesus is not ashamed to call me brother.

Jesus the Messiah

Hebrews 1

Lord Jesus, God, our Father, has appointed you heir of all things and created the worlds through you. You, Lord Jesus, are the very brightness of the glory of God, and you are the express image of the person of God. You uphold all the plans and decrees and promises of God, our Father, by your words and your divine power.

By yourself, you purged my sins and sat down at the right hand of majesty on high. You are God. You are much more than the angels, and by inheritance from God, our Father, you have obtained the most excellent name.

For God, our Father, says, ” You are my son. You are begotten by me. Let all the angels worship you. You are God, and your throne is forever and ever. A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of your kingdom.

“Therefore, I, Almighty God, the Father, have anointed you with the oil of gladness. You forever remain the same Almighty and beloved Deliver, and your years will not fail.”

According to the Hope

Titus 3

Father, fill me today with God the Spirit. You are my peace, and you sweeten my character. I am ready for every good work. I am obedient, and I speak evil of no one. I am peaceable and gentle.

I am humble because I remember once when I lived in my flesh how foolish and corrupt my life was. I served my lusts and was hateful and hurtful.

But then, Father, Hallelujah, the kindness and love of my Lord and Savior Jesus appeared and became real to me, and by his mercy, he saved me.

Heavenly Father, Jesus washed me with regeneration and renewed your Holy Spirit within me. I was born again, cleaned up, and reconciled to you. Through Christ, my Savior, you poured yourself out on me and into me abundantly.

Now I am justified by your grace, and I have become your heir according to the hope of your eternal life.

Straight From You

Titus 2; Ephesians 2

Thank you, Father, for grace, mercy, and peace straight from you to me through my Lord Jesus Christ. For your grace, oh Lord, brings salvation to me and teaches me to deny ungodliness and worldly lust.

Today, Father, by your living word and the person of your Holy Spirit, I live soberly, righteously, and in Godly communion with you, Father, in this present age.

I keep my eyes and thoughts on the blessed hope and the glorious appearing of my great God and Savior Jesus Christ.

You, Lord Jesus, gave yourself for me. You have redeemed me from every lawless deed and purified me to be your own kindred. Now I agree with you, and I am zealous for your good works to flow from me.

I am humbled, awestruck, and fiercely encouraged that I am your workmanship, and I have been created in Christ Jesus, by you, Father, for good works that you determined beforehand I would walk in.

Transformed and Conformed

Titus 1; Romans 12&8; Titus 1

Good morning, Father. With joy I proclaim that I am your bond servant and a disciple of Jesus Christ through the faith you have given me as one of your elect.

I live in truth through your word, and my life is now lived in godliness. I have the sure hope of eternal life which you, Father, Almighty God who cannot lie, have promised me in due time.

You have graciously renewed my mind, and I am transformed and conformed into the image of my Lord Jesus. Now, by faith and by your indwelling spirit, I am blameless before you.

I am a husband of one wife. I am not self-willed, nor quick tempered. I love what is good. I’m not given to wine nor violent. I’m not greedy for money.

No, now by your grace in me and on me, I am hospitable, self-controlled, and patient. I live filled with peace, holding fast to your words of faith. I live by sound doctrine, and I teach and exhort others with hope and patience and faith in the life and power of your word.

Obedient To You

2 Thessalonians 2&3

Hallelujah, Father, you are the God of Peace, and you give me peace always and in every way. You, Lord, are within me.

Thank you, Father, that from the beginning you chose me for salvation through sanctification by your Spirit and belief in the truth. You called me by your gospel to receive the glory of the person of the Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, I stand fast and hold on to all that you have taught me through your preaching and your word.

I thank you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, that you love me and give me everlasting consolation and good hope through your grace. You comfort my heart, and you establish me in every good word and work.

Lord, you are sovereign and perfectly able. I pray your word would run swiftly around this world and that you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, would be glorified, and your people would be delivered from unreasonable and wicked people.

Thank you that by your will and power, I am established, and you guard me from the evil one. And in every instance and circumstance I am obedient to you.

Very Present

1 Thessalonians 5

Lord God, you are faithful, and you will do all you promise to do. You have called me to you. You did not appoint me to your wrath, rather you elected me to obtain your salvation through the Lord Jesus Christ.

Now, in Christ, I am comforted and edified by your word, and by your presence, and by your teachers, and by the brethren you place in my life. I esteem others highly for their work and for their love for you, Father, and for their fellowship. I pursue what is good for myself and for all of us.

I rejoice always. I pray without ceasing, and in everything, I give thanks, for this is your will for me, Father, in Christ Jesus.

I welcome you, Holy Spirit, into my mind and heart. I love and listen expectantly to your word. I check every thought and plan against your word. I stick with what is good. I stay away from evil and corrupt and distracting.

And you, the God of Peace, by your very present Spirit in me, sanctify me completely, and my whole spirit, soul, and body are preserved blameless at the coming of my Lord Jesus Christ. You are Almighty God, and you do it.

Exceeding Greatness

Acts 20; Ephesians 1

Thank you, Father, that I am yours. I belong to you through the word of your grace which builds me up and grants me an inheritance among the saints.

For by the grace of Jesus Christ, I heard your word, the gospel of my salvation, and I believed. Now I have been sealed by your Holy Spirit of promise who is the guarantee of my inheritance until your appointed time for the redemption of your purchased possession to the praise of your glory.

Now, through your word and your presence dwelling in me, I have your spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of you and in communion with you.

The eyes of my understanding are enlightened. I know the hope I have of your calling on my life, and I begin to see more and more the riches of the glory of the inheritance that I have, through you, among the saints.

I see the exceeding greatness of your power toward your people, your mighty power that you worked in Christ Jesus when you raised him (and me with him) from the dead.
