No Longer My Own

Rev 12, Luke 12, I Cor 6

The salvation and the power and the kingdom of my God, and the authority of his Christ have come. It is the father’s good pleasure to give me the kingdom. I have conquered the accuser of our brethern by the blood of the lamb and by the word of my testimony,  for I love not my own life even unto death.  I am not self-centered but now I am Christ centered. I have been bought with a price and I’m no longer my own.  I belong to God.

Hallelujah, salvation and glory and power belong to Almighty God, my heavenly father; his judgments are true and just. For God Almighty reigns. I rejoice and exalt and give him the glory;  I make myself ready for him each day. By his grace I clothe myself in fine linen and pure: the righteousness of Jesus the Christ.

Dominion Forever

To you, Lord Jesus, be glory and dominion forever and ever. You have loved me and freed me from my sins by your blood and made me part of your kingdom, a priest to your God and father.  I receive grace and peace from you. You are the first and the last, the living one who died and now, behold, lives forevermore and has the keys to death and Hades.

Worthy are you, Lord Jesus, Messiah, to take the scroll and open its seals, for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation,  and you have made us a kingdom and priests to our God and we shall reign in the earth.

Pleasing In God’s Sight

Hebrews 13, Jeremiah 31

Heavenly father, you are the God of peace. You have brought again from the dead Jesus, my Lord. He is the great Shepherd. He is the blood of the eternal covenant, by virtue of which you equip me with everything good that I may do your will, and you work in me that which is pleasing in your sight. To Jesus be glory forever and ever.

Today, father, put your law within me and write your words on my heart. Equip me to do your will and work in me to make your equipment succeed; that I will act in ways and choices that please you. Wash in and over my mind that I will know the thoughts and intentions and purposes of your heart, father, and that I will walk in your good, pleasing and perfect will.

Raised Up

John 5&6

“Do you want to be healed? Get up, take up your bed and walk!”

I hear your words, Lord Jesus, and I believe God, the father, sent you to be the word of life and to be my savior. By that I know that I do not come into judgment, and I have eternal life.  You are indeed the son of God; the Messiah, the Christ! I believe that you are the messiah; the one sent from God, the father. You are the bread of life. By faith I eat of your body and I drink of your death. You are my righteous life and the atoning payment for my sins.  The father has given me to you and you never cast me out. It is god’s will that you lose none that he has given you. I look upon you, Lord Jesus, and I believe in you. I have eternal life and you will raise me up in the last day.

Thirsty

Rev. 19,21&22

Lord Jesus, I come to you. I am thirsty for the water of life that you are. I come unto you! I worship you. I know God, the father, because of your grace, and I worship him. You are the river of the water of life, clear as crystal, that proceeds out of : the throne of God, the father, and you the Lamb of God.

Your tabernacle is with me and you dwell in me and me with you. You wipe away my tears; you make all things new; you are the alpha and omega, the beginning in the end; you are my God and I am God’s son.

You, Lord Jesus, are faithful and true. You judge and make war in perfect righteousness. Your name is, ” The word of God. ” You tread the wine press of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. Hallelujah, the Lord God Almighty reigns. I am glad and I rejoice.

Thou Art Worthy

Rev. 4&5

Thou art worthy, oh Lord, to receive glory and honor and power for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.  Hallelujah! Behold the lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

I sing to you, Lord Jesus! I sing a new song saying, ” thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred and tongue and people and nation.   Worthy is the lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing. Blessing and honor and glory and power be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and to the lamb forever and ever! “

Divine

Thank you, father, for your divine presence in me and your divine protection. I belong to you, father, and the evil one cannot touch me! Greater are you in me, Lord, than anything in the world.

Take charge of me today, Lord, in every way. I belong to you, Lord Jesus, and I am no longer my own. I have been bought with a price.

Thank you, father, for drawing me to you and granting me repentance. Fill me, Holy Spirit, that my thoughts would be your thoughts. Take charge of my will and my actions that I would love to obey.

I cast my cares upon you for I know you care for me. You are the shepherd and Bishop of my salvation. I follow and obey. I bow before you. It is your church, Lord Jesus, and you build it.

One and Only

Micah 5,6&7

Father, there is no God like you! You have sworn a covenant with my forefathers and with me. You pardon my iniquities, you pass over my transgressions, you make me your inheritance.  You delight in steadfast love.

By grace, through Jesus Christ, you and I are reconciled. You are my father and I am your son. You have compassion on me; you tread my iniquities underfoot. You cast my sins into the depths of the sea.  You have shown your faithfulness and steadfast love to me and to my family.  By your grace and presence in me, I do justice, I love steadfastly, and I walk humbly before you, Lord!

Wonderful Things

Ish 25, 26 & 9

You, oh Lord, are my God. I exalt you. I praise your name. You do wonderful things! You are my stronghold. You are a shelter from the storm and shade from the heat. You, father, have swallowed up death. You wipe away the tears from my face. You have taken away my reproach.

Behold, you are my God and I wait on you. I am glad and I rejoice in your salvation. My mind is stayed on you and you keep me in perfect peace. I trust you, father.  I trust in you, Lord Jesus; you are my everlasting rock!

” for unto us, ( for me), a child was born, a brother was given and the government should be on his shoulders and his name is called wonderful Counselor, mighty God, everlasting father, Prince of peace. “

God’s Report vs World’s Report

All scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction and for training in righteousness that I, as a son of God, can be complete, equipped for every good work.  I am called to preach the word (especially to myself); to be ready in season and out of season; to reprove, rebuke and exhort with complete patience and teaching.

I know the time is and is coming when people will not endure sound teaching  but will gather to teachers that tickle their ears with what they want to hear; with words that suit their own passions. People will turn away from the truth. Some will have an appearance of godliness, but deny the real power of it (Him). People will be led astray by false teachers; ever learning and never able to arrive at the knowledge of the truth. Men corrupted in mind and disqualified regarding the faith will oppose the truth.
