Today

Matthew 5&6

Fill me today, Holy Spirit. Take charge of my thoughts and my mouth, that I would truly be the son of my Heavenly Father today; that my heart and mind would be perfect, just as my Father in heaven is perfect.

Today I do love the enemies and pray for their salvation. I do good and pray for those who do evil.

Father, I commune with you in prayer ceaselessly and instantly. I listen and do not use vain repetition for I know that you, Father, already know what I have need of before I ask. I use communion with you to bring my thoughts and will into agreement with you and to initiate obedient action by me.

Today, Father, I hallow your name. You are my divine, sovereign, almighty, merciful, Heavenly Father. Today I agree and receive your kingdom into me and around me, growing and doing all that you have ordained from heaven for today.

Today I have all that I need in spirit and earthly provision. Today I am forgiven, and I forgive others with grace and mercy.

Today I avoid temptation, and I resist the evil one, and you, Father, guide me, guard me, and gift me to see that all that you want in me is done.

You Only

Matthew 3&4

Lord Jesus, you are the Father’s beloved son, and he is well pleased with you. You baptize me with your Holy Spirit and with fire. You thoroughly cleanse the threshing floor. You gather those who are yours, and you burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

I live in you, Christ Jesus, by every word that proceeds from you and the Father. I do not test you, Lord. I worship you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and you only do I serve.

I once sat in darkness, but now, Lord, I live in your divine light. I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, but your eternal life has dawned on me

I have repented and continue to confess and repent as illumination shows me, and I live in your kingdom, Father, and your kingdom lives in me. I follow you, Lord, and you make use of me, as you see fit, in your kingdom.

Water of Life

Revelation 22 & 21

Hallelujah, Lord Jesus, you are coming quickly, and your reward is with you. You are the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. I do your word, and I am blessed. Your Holy Spirit testifies these things to me, and I believe

I am thirsty for you, Lord Jesus. I come to you. I desire to be yours, and I take from your water of life freely.

At your appointed time, Father, death and Hades will be cast into the lake of fire. There will be a new heaven and a new earth. Behold, your tabernacle will be with the people who are yours. You will dwell with us.

You, Father, yourself, will be with us and be our God. You will wipe away every tear from our eyes. There will be no more death, not sorrow, not crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away. Behold, you will make all things new. 

Just Due

Revelation 14, 15 & 16

I fear you, Father, and I give glory to you. I know the time of your judgment will come. You made heaven and earth, the sea and the springs of water, and I worship you.

Great and marvelous are your works, Lord God Almighty. Just and true are your ways, oh King of the Saints. I fear you, oh Lord, and I glorify your name. You alone are holy. All nations will come to worship before you. Your judgment will show up and will be unavoidable.

You are righteous, oh Lord. You are the one who is and who was and who is to be. You judge all things. Those who have shed the blood of your saints and prophets will choke on their blood, for that is their just due.

Full of Fullness and Life

1 John 5; John 15; Galatians 5

This is my testimony. You, Father God, have given me eternal life. This life is great and good and joyous because it is in Christ. I have Christ Jesus, and he has me. Therefore, I have this divine eternal life. I know this because your scripture tells me, and because your Holy Spirit communes the reality of this life to me.

So, I have confidence that you hear me, Father, when I ask anything according to your will. Since I know that you hear me, I know I have the petitions that I ask for.

Your will is that I abide in my Lord Jesus, and that his word abide in me. Then I will ask with the right desires, and those things will be done for me. You, Father, will be glorified in my life since I will bear much fruit and will be a disciple indeed of my Lord Jesus.

You love me, Lord Jesus, and I abide in your love. I keep my eyes and thoughts on your word, and you fill me with your presence and testify your truth to me. Your divine, beyond expressible, joy and peace, fill me, and my joy is full. Full of your fullness and life; love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance.

I Abide, and I Walk

1 John 1&2

Father, I have heard your word. I have fellowship with you, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. My joy is full.

You, Father, are light. In you there is no darkness. I walk in the light because you are the light, and we have fellowship with one another, and the sacrifice of Jesus, your son and my savior, cleanses me from all sin.

I have sinned, and that nature still lives in my flesh, but I have confessed my sins, and you, Father, are faithful and just and have forgiven my sins and cleansed me from all unrighteousness.

You have done these things, and you have birthed your new man in me so that I will not continue to sin. Sin no longer has dominion over me, but if I do sin, now that I am yours, I have an advocate with you, Father, Jesus Christ, the Righteous. He himself is the propitiation for my sins.

I love your word, Lord Jesus, and I keep my eyes on your word. By this, I know I am yours. By your word living in me, I am perfected. I abide in you, Lord Jesus, and I walk with you just as you walked.

Partake and Escape

2 Peter 1

Father, since the beginning, you have chosen men, and through faith in Christ Jesus, you have made them holy, and they have spoken and written as your Holy Spirit moved them. Those words have become your scripture.

Your word is not cunningly devised fables. It is eyewitness accounts of your Majesty. Your scriptures prove that Jesus is your Christ, that he received from you glory and honor. You spoke to him in excellent glory, “This is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased”.

Through your scripture, I know you, Father, and I know Jesus as my Lord. Through that knowledge, grace and peace are multiplied to me, and your person and power fill me with everything pertaining to life and godliness.

You have chosen me and called me into glory and virtue. You, Father, have given me exceeding great and precious promises that, through your word, I partake of your divine nature, and I escape the corruption that is in this world. 

Everyday and All Day

1 John 4&5

Lord Jesus, I believe you are the Messiah. You came and lived and died and rose again to birth many people into your kingdom, to make us brethren. I love the brethren, and I believe you are the Father’s deliverer, so I know I am born of God, our father.

I love your word, Lord Jesus, and I keep my eyes on your word, and your words order my thoughts. I am filled with faith by your word, Lord, and that gives me victory over the temptations and tests of the world.

I am of you, Father, because I have been born a second time, this time by your Holy, eternal, Spirit, who has birthed a new, spiritual man in me. This new man is perfect, with your person and your nature, Father.

Now I am able to overcome the world, the flesh, and the demonic, because he who is alive in me is greater than all that is in the world; greater than the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and greater than the pride and vanity of life in the flesh.

I know I abide in you, Father, and I know you abide in me, because you have given me your spirit. Your spirit communes with me and witnesses to me every day and all day. 

In Me

1 John 3

Father, with joy and thanksgiving, I behold the love you have bestowed on me, that I am enabled and transformed into your child. The world, of course, does not know me, because it did not know Christ, but I have begun to truly know you.

I am your child, Father, now and forever. It has not yet fully been revealed what all I shall be in Christ, but I see glimpses of it in your word, and your Holy Spirit speaks to me of your glory and fullness of joy.

I know that when your day comes, and Christ Jesus is fully revealed, I shall be like him for I will see him as he is.

So now, Father, by your grace and presence and illumination, I am not deceived. I practice righteousness, and in Christ, I have your perfect righteousness. Jesus, your Christ, was manifested to destroy the works of the devil.

I have been born again. Born from above. Your seed is in me, Father, and I do not practice sin because I am in you, and you are in me. 

Gird Up

Isaiah 8; 1 Peter 2&1

Father, you have spoken strong to me, and you have instructed me not to walk in the ways of the world. I follow you, Lord, and I know you are sovereign in every detail of your creation.

I am not afraid or troubled by the conspiracy of those who are evil for I know you are the Lord of Hosts. I hallow you. It is you who I fear in love. I dread the thought of failing your desires for me.

You are my Sanctuary.

To those who are evil and lost, you are a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence. Many will stumble. They shall fall and be broken and snared and taken away.

I once walked in this darkness, but now, by your election and grace, I have seen your great light, Jesus, my Lord and Savior. I come unto him as my living cornerstone, chosen and precious. My new life is built on Christ Jesus. I am chosen and made part of your royal household, Father. I am now your own special kin. You called me out of darkness into your marvelous light.

Therefore, I gird up the loins of my mind. I am serious to be your disciple. I rest my hope fully on your finished work, Lord Jesus. I am holy as you are holy.
