Never Cast Out

Mathew 16; John 1; 2 Peter; John 6

To those to whom the Father reveals it, Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God. He is the word of God and he became flesh and dwelt among us, so that the world would have the word of God, to see it, to hear it, and to touch it. To have it written by the apostles as they were carried along by the holy Spirit.

God, you are the one who calls me. Without your revelation I would not see. I have come to faith in Christ because you, Heavenly Father, have drawn me to you. You have elected me for salvation and because of that I come to Christ. And whoever comes to Christ Jesus, he will never cast out.

Imperishable Seed

1 Peter 1; James 1; John 6; Acts 20; Hebrews 11; John 14; 1 Peter 2; Colossians 2&3, Romans 11, Mathew 1

I am born again by the imperishable seed which is the word of God, and I have received with meekness the implanted word which is able to save my soul.

I work diligently to believe on Jesus as the Christ. I am quick to repent from sin and even from “fleshy” thinking, and my faith is in the complete work of Jesus, my Messiah. I know God rewards me as I seek Him diligently.

I believe that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, and I have come to God, the Father, through faith in Jesus. There have been times when I have strayed, but now I have returned to my Lord Jesus, the shepherd and bishop of my soul.

Christ is all and in all, and I am complete in him. For from him and through him and to him are all things, and to him is glory forever. His name is, Jesus, and he has saved me from my sins.

Destroyers of the Earth

Revelation 5, 7, & 11

Worthy are you, Lord Jesus. Worthy to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing. To you, Lord, be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever. You are sovereign Lord, holy and true.

Salvation belongs to you who sits on the throne, God, my Father, and to the Lamb. Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to you, Father, forever and ever.

You, Father, shelter me with your presence. I hunger and thirst no more. The sun and scorching heat do not strike me. The Lamb in the midst of your throne is my shepherd and he guides me to springs of living water. You, God, my Father, wipe away every tear from my eyes.

I give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty. You reward your servants, those great and small, who fear your name, and you destroy the destroyers of the Earth.

A Crown

1 Peter 5; Hebrews 9; 2 Timothy 4

Hallelujah, today I cast my cares upon you, Father, so thankful that you care for me. I am not anxious, my refuge is in you, not in being anxious. I am eager for your company and your lordship today, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes the judgment, so, Christ, you were offered once to bear my sins, and you will appear a second time, not to deal with sin, but to save us who are eagerly waiting for you.

Therefore, by your grace, I fight a good fight, I finish my race, I keep the faith. Henceforth, there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness which you, the Lord of Righteousness, will award to me on that day, and not only to me but to all who have loved your appearing.

Victory

1 Corinthians 15

Lord Jesus, you lifted my sins and carried them to the cross and died the death that I deserve to die. Now my death is no longer the wrath of God against me. Instead because of your atonement my death is my entrance into full salvation, with no condemnation.

My mortal body must put on immortality and death is swallowed up in victory for me, through Christ Jesus.”

At your appointed time, Father, in this flesh, I will appear to die, and this fleshly vessel will be sown like a kernel. It is sown perishable, but what you raise, Father, is imperishable.

It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power. It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. This is because flesh and blood cannot inherit God’s kingdom, nor can perishable inherit the imperishable.

Living Hope

Romans 9,10 &15; 1 Peter 1

Thank you, Father, that you chose me and have mercy and compassion on me. This election is for your purposes and by your mercy. It does not come because of my will or exertion.

But now, by your call to me, and your gift of grace and faith, I do pursue the righteousness that comes by faith in Jesus, the Christ.

I believe in him and receive him as Lord of my life. Jesus Christ is the end of the law of righteousness for each of us who believe.

I say with my mouth and my life that Jesus is Lord and that you, God, my heavenly Father, raised him from the dead, according to the scriptures.

I glorify you, Father, for your mercy to me and to all those who are yours. According to your great mercy, you have caused me to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

In Christ, my inheritance is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading. I am guarded by your power, father, through faith, for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

The Messiah, My Savior

Hebrews 3,6, & 4

Lord Jesus, I believe you are the Messiah, the Christ, sent by God the Father to reconcile his people to himself.  You are Jesus, the Apostle and the high priest of my confession. You are faithful to God who appointed you. I hold fast my confidence and my boasting in you, Lord Jesus, you are my hope.

You are a sure and steadfast anchor of my soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the veil where you have gone as a forerunner on my behalf; having become my high priest forever.  Since I have a great high priest who is passed through the heavens, I hold fast my confession.

I have a high priest who is able to sympathize with my weaknesses because he was in every respect tempted as I am and yet without sin.  Therefore, because of Jesus, I have confidence to draw near to the throne of grace, to receive mercy and find grace in times of need!

Guaranteed

Hebrews 8,7&9

Lord Jesus, you are the guarantor of a better covenant. You hold the priesthood permanently. Consequently, you are able to save to the uttermost those of us who draw near to God through you, since you always live to make intercession for us.  When you, Lord Jesus, the Christ, appeared as high priest of the good things to come, you entered once for all into the holy place by means of your own blood thus securing eternal redemption.

You offered yourself without blemish. Your blood purifies my conscience from dead works to serve the living God. You are my mediator of the new covenant so that I may receive the promised eternal inheritance.  You, Lord Jesus, have entered, not into the holy place made with hands, but into heaven itself, to appear in the presence of God the Father on my behalf.  

You appeared once for all to put away sin by the sacrifice of yourself. You will appear a second time, to save those who are eagerly waiting for you.

New Song

Psalms 40

Lord, you drew me up out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and you set my feet upon the rock. You steadied my steps and established my goings.

You, Father, have put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to you, my God.

Therefore, I am not too concerned about what may happen tomorrow. You, Almighty Father, are the same everlasting one who cares for me today, and you will take care of me tomorrow and every day. Either you will shield me from suffering, or you will give me unfailing strength to bear it.

I am at peace. I put aside all anxious thoughts and imaginations and say continually, “The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart has trusted in him and I am helped.  He is not only with me but in me, and I in him.”

The Glory in Me

Romans 8

By the Spirit of God in me I put to death the deeds of the body and I live.  All who are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God. I have received the Spirit of adoption as a son, by which I cry Abba, Father.  The Spirit himself bears witness with my spirit that I am a child of God, and if a child, then an heir, heir of God and fellow heir with Christ provided I suffer with him in order that I may also be glorified with him.

The suffering of this present time is not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed in me. The whole creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. The Spirit of God helps me. The spirit intercedes for the Saints according to the will of God. I know that all things work for my good because I love God and I’m called according to his purpose. I am predestined to be conformed to the image of God’s son in order that he may be the firstborn among many brothers.
