John 10&11

Lord Jesus, I hear your voice, and I know you, and I follow you. You give me eternal life, and I shall never perish, and no one can ever snatch me out of your hand.

God, our father, has given me to you, and he is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch me out of our father’s hand. You and our father are one. I know you, and I believe that our father is in you, and that you are in our father.

I hear your voice. You call me by name, and I follow you. I have entered the kingdom of God by you, Lord Jesus, and I am saved. I find pasture as I go through this life; me hidden in you and you hidden in me. You give me life, and you give it to me abundantly.

You, Lord Jesus, are the resurrection and the life. I believe in you, and though I may appear to die, I shall live. Since I live and believe in you, I shall never die.

You, Lord Jesus, are the Christ. You have come into the world to save me from my sin and to give me divine life. I receive you with gladness and thanksgiving.

2 Corinthians 6&7

Father, you promise to dwell in me and to walk with me. You are my God, and I am your child. I have come up out of the world and have begun to separate myself from those that hate you.

I work with my renewed mind to stay clean of worldliness. You tell me that you are my father, and I am your son.

With those promises I cleanse myself from all filthiness of the flesh and the spirit. Your holiness is perfected in me as I fear your disappointment.

I am filled with comfort and encouragement despite the foolishness and temptations of this world around me. Outside there are conflicts. Inside anxiety cries out. Nevertheless, you Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, comfort me with your word, your presence, and your people.

Like 19; 1 Corinthians 6; Colossians 3; John 14; 2 Timothy 1; 1 Timothy 6

Good morning, Lord Jesus. You are my Lord and Savior. You are the Messiah sent by God, my father, to seek me and to save me. I belong to you. I have been bought with a price. I am no longer my own.

You, Lord, dwell in me now through the person of your Holy Spirit. You commune with me, and you teach, and show, and convict, and encourage me. My mind is renewed, and my soul is saved.

I do not have a spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound mind. Your gospel, Lord, has saved me and called me to a holy calling.

I know whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that you, Lord Jesus, are able to keep all that I have committed unto you, until your day.

I live in godliness with contentment. I realize I brought nothing into this world, and it is certain I will carry nothing out. Therefore, I do not chase after money for I know money is a fickle mistress.

Instead, I pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and gentleness. I fight the good fight of faith. I lay hold on eternal life to which I am called.

John 6

Lord Jesus, your words are spirit, and they are life. I am thankful that God, our father, has granted to me that I can come to you. I have come to you, and I know that there is no way that you will cast me out.

You are the true bread from heaven. You are the bread of heaven sent down by God, our father, and you give life to the world. You give the food that endures to everlasting life. God, our father has set his seal on you.

You, Lord Jesus, have the words of eternal life. By your grace I have come to believe and to know that you are the Christ, the son of the living God.

The words you speak are spirit, and they are life. I feed on your flesh and blood. These are spiritual things that give everlasting life, not actual “flesh” things that profit nothing.

In this “feeding process” I abide in you, Lord Jesus, and you abide in me. You are the living bread, and I partake of all you give me liberally.

Matthew 16, John 6, Colossians 1

Lord Jesus, I believe you are the Christ, the Son of the living God. I set my mind today on the things of God. I follow after you, Lord Jesus. I deny myself. I take up my cross, and I follow you.

I believe you are the one who God, the father, has sent. You are the living bread that came down from heaven. I feed on you, and I live forever. You give your life for me, and through your life, I have eternal life.

These words are spirit and life. It is the Spirit who gives life, and the flesh is no help at all. Lord, I love you and praise you for you have the words of eternal life.

Lord Jesus, you are the very essence of the invisible God. You are preeminent in all of creation. You created all things in heaven and on earth. All things were created through you and for you. You are before all things, and in you all things hold together.

In you all the fullness of God is pleased to dwell, and through you, I am reconciled to God, my father. Through you, Lord Jesus, I have come to know the great riches of the glory of God’s divine mystery, which is Christ in me, the sure hope of glory forever.

Colossians 3, Galatians 2, Romans 5, 1 John 4 & 5

Hallelujah! I am hidden with Christ in God. It is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. Your love, father, is poured out into my heart by your Holy Spirit whom you have given to me.

So, today I walk in your spirit, and I do not fulfill the lusts of my flesh. The flesh lusts against the spirit, but I am led by you, Holy Spirit, and I am not under the law of sin and death.

Instead, by your grace, and love, and communion, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, there is no condemnation for me because the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and death.

Now, Lord Jesus, you dwell in me forever so that greater is he that is in me than he that is in the world. I know that you love me, father, because you sent your only begotten son into this world so that I would have eternal life with you through him.

I believe that Jesus is your son, father. And I believe that he is your Messiah, and that he is my savior. In this faith I have your victory, and I have overcome the world.

1 Peter 1

Blessed are you, my God and the father of my Lord Jesus Christ. By your grace and power you predestined me, and you elected me to be sanctified by your Holy Spirit for obedience. You saw to it that I was cleansed by the sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ.

Grace and peace are multiplied to me. According to your abundant mercy, father, you have begotten me again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

Now I am an heir to an inheritance that is incorruptible and undefiled; an inheritance that will never fade away; that is kept in heaven for me.

In all this I greatly rejoice even though sometimes in this life I suffer various trials. In this world the genuineness of my faith is tested.

Lord, keep yourself strong in me that I always am found to the praise and honor and glory of my Lord Jesus Christ.

2 Peter 2

Hallelujah Lord, you know how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and how to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment.

You judge harshly especially those who walk according to the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise authority. That type of person is presumptuous and self-willed. They speak evil of glorious, dignified, and godly desires and beliefs.

These lost people are like natural brute beasts. They will utterly perish in their own corruption. They have forsaken the right way and gone astray. They love the wages of unrighteousness.

These people are wells without water. They speak great swelling words of emptiness. They promise freedom, but, in truth, make all slaves to corruption.

But, father, you are God and you are not slack concerning your promises. Your judgment day will come when it is least expected, but it will come. Then the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and elements will melt with fervent heat.

Then we look for a new heaven and a new earth in which righteousness dwells for eternity.
