The Almighty

Revelation 1

Good morning, Lord Jesus. You are the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over all the kings of the earth. You love me and wash me from my sins in your own blood. You have made me one of your chosen people; chosen to be kings and priests to God, our father. To him be glory and dominion forever and ever.

On the appointed day you are coming with clouds and every eye will see you, even those who pierced you. All the tribes of the earth will mourn because of you.

You are the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. You are he who is, and who was, and who is to come. You tell me that you are the Almighty.

You touch me and tell me, “Do not be afraid. I am the first and the last. I am he who lives, and was dead, and behold, I live forever more. Amen. I have the keys of Hades and of death.”

A Chosen Vessel

1 Corinthians 2&1; Colossians 1

Hallelujah, father, I am determined not to be concerned about anything of the world’s machinations except Jesus Christ and him crucified. My faith is not in the wisdom or politics of man. My faith is in your power and in your character, father.

I do not lean on the wisdom of this age, nor do I trust in the rulers of this age. They are all coming to nothing. I trust in your wisdom, father, your hidden wisdom that you ordained before the ages for your glory.

My eye has not seen, nor my ear heard, nor can I even imagine, the things you have prepared for me. Your Holy Spirit has begun to reveal them to me, so that I can know the things that have been freely given to me by you, father.

No flesh will glory in your presence. Nothing of mankind will out do your wisdom and strength. Instead, you have placed me, as a chosen vessel, in Christ, and he has become wisdom, righteousness, redemption, and sanctification for me. Christ dwells in me and he is my glory.

The Inheritance

2 Timothy 4; Colossians 3

Thank you, father, for your perfect faithfulness. You stand with me and you strengthen me. You deliver me from every evil work, and you preserve me for your heavenly kingdom.

I am watchful in all things. I endure afflictions. I do the ministry work that you use me for, father. By your grace and communion, father, I fight a good fight. I run a good race, and I keep strong in the faith.

You are the righteous judge and you hold in heaven a crown of righteousness for me. You will give it to me on that day, your day, and not to me only but to all who love your appearing.

Whatever I do today, in word or in deed, I do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to you, father, through him. Whatever I do, I do it heartily, as to you, Lord Jesus, and not to men. I know that from you, lord, I received the reward of the inheritance for I serve you, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Victory

Jude; Colossians 3; Jude; 3 John; 2 John; 1 John

Today, father, I build myself up in your most holy faith. I pray your word and will in the Holy Spirit. I keep myself firmly in your love, hidden with Christ in you, father. I ponder and rely on the mercy of my Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

Jesus, my lord, is able to keep me from stumbling and to present me to your glorious presence, father, faultless, with exceeding joy. To you, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, be glory and majesty and dominion and power both now and forever.

Today, by your grace, father, I prosper in all things and I am in health as my soul prospers. All truth comes from you, father, and in Christ your truth abides in me and is with me forever.

I believe Jesus is your Christ, father. He is born of you; your only begotten son. By this faith I know I’m born of you.

Since I’m born again, I overcome the world through faith in Jesus, your son, and my Lord and Savior. This faith you have planted in me is the victory that overcomes the world. Hallelujah.

True God

1 John 5&4

Thank you, father, that you have given me eternal life. This life is in your son. I have Jesus so, I have eternal life. I know this is true because your word tells me.

John, your apostle, saw it and touched it and heard it proclaimed, and he wrote the facts down so that I could know your gospel, and so that, I would know it is true.

I am born again by your grace and Holy Spirit, father. I keep myself in Christ now, and Christ keeps me, and the wicked one cannot touch me.

I know your son has come, father, and given me an understanding of your love and your salvation. I know him. I am in him and he is in me. Jesus is true God and eternal life.

I am born again of you, father. through faith in Jesus. By the gift of your Holy Spirit, you are in me and I am in you. We are one. By your indwelling spirit, I have overcome the world system because he that is in me is greater than he that is in the world. Many things and people are of the world. I am of god.

Fully and Forever

1 Peter 1,2&1; 2 Corinthians 5

Today, father, because of the wisdom that you are in me through Christ, I gird up the loins of my mind. I am sober, and I rest my hope fully on your grace which I behold in the life of my Lord Jesus.

Now I no longer conform my life to my former lusts. Instead, I recognize that in Christ I am holy. You, father, are holy therefore, I am holy.

I have been redeemed by the precious blood of Christ. By the stripes he suffered, father, my relationship with you was cured. You and I are now fully and forever reconciled.

Thank you, father, for your grace and mercy to me. You have begotten me again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled that does not fade away, and is reserved in heaven for me.

In the meantime, I am kept by your power, father, through faith in your salvation, ready to be revealed in the last times. In this I rejoice.

Elect and Precious

1 Peter 2&1

Father, thank you for the grace and faith to believe your gospel. I put my faith in Jesus. He is the living stone; the chief cornerstone. He is precious. On Christ, your chosen cornerstone, you are building a spiritual house, a holy priesthood to offer up spiritual sacrifices to you.

Jesus is that cornerstone; elect and precious. I believe on him and will by no means be put to shame. Even though he will be rejected by most men, Jesus is your cornerstone. He is meant by you to be a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense to those people who are not yours.

But, by your grace and mercy, father, I am yours. Like a sheep I once was going astray but now, through Christ, I have returned to the shepherd and overseer of my soul.

I have heard your truth and I have received Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. I have been born again of your incorruptible seed, your word, father, which lives and abides forever.

No Variation

James 1

Today, father, I bend down and look into your perfect law of liberty. By your grace and through the witness of your Holy Spirit, I see Jesus, your Messiah and my Lord. I feast on his word and I continue in Christ as the true law of liberty.

I let your word work in me, father. I do not forget. I am blessed in all that I do. I receive with humility and desperate need your ingrafted word, and my soul is saved.

I endure trials, and I am perfected by the things I suffer. You prove yourself to me, father, as you testify to me in trials. I am placed in Christ by your grace and filled with the gift of your Holy Spirit. He is the perfect gift from above given to me by you, the Father of Lights.

You are perfect, father, and there is no variation or shadow of turning in you. You brought me fourth by your word of truth, and now I am a kind of first fruit of your creation.

Consuming Fire

Hebrews 13&12

Thank you Father, that you are the God of peace. You brought up my Lord Jesus from the dead. You are the Great Shepherd and through the blood of your everlasting covenant you make me complete in every good work to do your will.

You work in me all things that are pleasing in your sight through Jesus Christ. You are glorified forever and ever.

I am content in you, Lord Jesus. I know that you will never leave me nor forsake me. You are my helper, and I will not fear. You, Lord Jesus, mediate the new covenant to me. I receive your word.

In you, Lord Jesus, I am become a part of a kingdom that cannot be shaken. In you, Lord Jesus, I have grace by which I may serve God, our father, with reverence and Godly fear. For our father is a consuming fire.

Cannot Touch Me

1 John 5

Lord Jesus, I know you have come as the Son of God and as the Messiah. You have given me understanding so that I may know God, our heavenly father, and that I may be in him as his child.

I am in you, Lord Jesus, as well, and you are in me. You are truly God and you are eternal life. I have confidence in you, Lord Jesus. I know that as I ask for anything according to your will, you hear me. Since I know you hear me, I know that I have the petitions that I asked for.

Thank you, father, that, in spite of all the worldly shenanigans, you have given me eternal life and perfect peace with you. This life is in the Lord Jesus, and I have Jesus, your son, as my Lord and Savior.

The whole world lies under the sway of the evil one, but I am born again of God. I keep myself in Christ and you, father, keep me. The wicked one cannot touch me.
