A Prayer— Praise the Lord All Creation

Praise the Lord All Creation!

Praise the Lord from the heavens; praise him in the heights above. Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his heavenly hosts. Praise him sun and moon; praise him all you shining stars. Praise him, you highest heavens and you waters above the skies. Praise him you people all over the earth. Let all creation praise your name O God.

We, your creation, praise your name O Lord, for you commanded and all creation came to pass. You set them in place forever and ever; you gave a decree that will never pass away.

So let all creation praise your name, for your love and faithfulness O God; for you alone are exalted; your splendor is above the heavens and the earth.

You have raised up for your creation the horn of salvation, Jesus Christ, the praise of all your saints, the people close to your precious heart.

Praise the Lord O my soul. Praise the Lord.

In Christ Name I Pray
Amen

A Prayer—Praise the Lord O my Soul

Praise the Lord O my soul. How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and fitting to praise you Father!

The Lord our God builds up His house; he gathers the saints for salvation. O God you heal the brokenhearted and bind up our wounds. You, O Lord, save and sustain the humble on the path of life, but cast the wicked to the ground on the path to death.

For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and how is must sadden your heart O God, that many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life and how we sorrow with you Father, that only a few find it.

So enable that Saints in the land, O God, to sing to the Lord with thanksgiving; inspire our hearts to make music to our God. For it is you our God that covers the sky with clouds; you supply the earth with rain and make grass grow on the hills; you provide food for every living creature on earth and in the seas. You determine the number of the stars and call them each by name! For Great is the Lord our God; and mighty is your power; your understanding O God has no limit.

Your pleasure, Lord God, is not in the strength of the neither mighty nor powerful, nor do you delight in the wisdom and achievements of mankind; so we praise you Lord God, that your delight is in those who fear you, and those who put their hope in your unfailing love in Jesus Christ or Savior.

So we will extol the Lord our God forever, for He has revealed his word to His Prophets and to His Saints. Praise the Lord O my soul; praise the Lord.

In Christ Name I Pray
Amen

A Prayer—of Spiritual Warfare

Lord God, although we live in this world we refuse to wage war as the world does. The powerful weapons of our life of faith and obedience to your message of Jesus’ death, burial, resurrection, and ascension are not the weapons of this world.

On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We therefore demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God; and by the divine power of Christ, we take captive every thought and make them all obedient to Jesus Christ.

O Lord our God, be not far off in this battle; O my Strength, always come quickly to help us. Deliver our lives from all evil; our precious life in Christ from the power of darkness. Rescue us from the devils schemes; save us from his flaming arrows.

For dominion belongs to you Lord and you rule over heaven and earth. I praise you that you always and forever will work through to the good in the lives of all who love you, and who fear your holy name.

In Christ Name I Pray
Amen

A Prayer—of Praise

I will exalt you, my God and my King; I will praise your name for ever and ever. Every day I will praise you and extol your name for ever and ever.

Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; your greatness no one can fathom. One generation will commend your works to another; they will tell of your mighty acts. They will speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty, and I will meditate on your wonderful works. They will tell of the power of your awesome works, and I will proclaim your great deeds.

They will celebrate your abundant goodness and joyfully sing of your righteousness. For the Lord our God is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love. You are good O Lord to all; you have compassion on all you have made.

All you have made will praise you, O Lord; your saints will extol you. They will tell of the glory of your kingdom and speak of your might, so that all men may know of your mighty acts and the glorious splendor of your kingdom. Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. You are faithful to all your promises; and you are loving toward all you have made.

My mouth will speak in praise of the Lord. Let every creature praise your holy name.

A Prayer—of Transformation, Godliness, Repentance

Since we have been raised with Christ, O God, please help us to set our hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at your right hand. Yes Lord, may we set our minds on things above, not on earthly things.

For In Christ Jesus we died, and we thank you that our lives are now hidden with Christ in you, our God. So we praise you Father, and we thank you that when Christ, who is our life appears, then we also will appear with him in glory.

Therefore I pray in earnest that we put to death whatever belongs to our earthly nature: including sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, all of which is idolatry; and may we put to death anything else in our lives that is not pleasing to you, our God. We know Lord that it is because of these that the wrath of God is coming.

I give thanks that because of your great mercy to us in Christ, the old self was taken off and the new self put on, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image our Creator, The Lord God Almighty is his name.

But now O God, I pray that we rid ourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from our lips. As your chosen people Father, holy and dearly loved by you, I pray that we clothe ourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.

I pray that we bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances we may have against one another. Empower us to forgive O God, just, as in Christ Jesus, you forgave us.

And over all these virtues Father, I pray that we put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. I pray that the peace of Christ rule in our hearts, since as members of one body we were called to peace. And I pray that we would always be thankful.

I pray that the word of Christ dwell in us richly, O God. When we come together to sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs may our hearts overflow with gratitude to you our God for all that you have done for us through Jesus Christ our Lord.

And whatever we you do, Father, whether in word or deed, I pray that we do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to you, our God and Father through him.

In Christ Name I Pray,
Amen

Words Of Encouragement--12/25/2012--A Poem for Christ

Words Of Encouragement--12/25/2012--A Poem for Christ
I wrote this in 2004 and post it every holiday season. Enjoy.

A Poem For Him

Money in the Millions upon Millions will come and eventually go.
What we have in God & Christ will last, and the world does not yet know.

Bringing Glory to God with a life of earnest prayers, and service to him through and through,
This is really our true life on earth and the task we must do.

Christ, this great mystery of God, and the forgiveness of all sin,
Love, trust and faith in his Holy Blood, with wholehearted pursuit of this I can win.

So power, friends, homes, family, even material wealth are all good when things are straight,
But a life completely devoted to God is what is lasting, good, and great;

This Hope is Holy, it is precious, and it fills all voids with the treasure of Christ for us his seeds,
Truly these are the things, which are Godly, powerful, and persistent commitment to them is what will fulfill our every need.

A Prayer—O Lord my Strength

I love you, O LORD, my strength. I thank you that are my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; My God is my rock, in whom I take refuge; you are my shield, and the horn of my salvation; you are my stronghold.

The LORD Jesus Christ is my light and my salvation —whom shall I fear O God, but you alone? You are the stronghold of my life Father—of whom shall I be afraid? When the evil day comes against me to devour me, it will stumble and fall. Though many trails besiege me, my heart will not fear; though spiritual war breaks out against me, even then I will be confident.

One thing I ask from you Father, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, through faith in Jesus Christ; that I may gaze on the beauty and majesty of the LORD and seek you wholeheartedly at all times.

For in the days of trouble you keep safely in Christ. For you are my God, and I will give you thanks; you are my God, and I will exalt you. I give you thanks Lord, for you are good, and your love endures forever.

In Christ Name I Pray
Amen

A Prayer—For this Living Hope

I will forever praise you, the God and Father of my Lord Jesus Christ! For In your great mercy O God, you have given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

In your great mercy you have given us an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade; in your great mercy you have kept our salvation tucked away in heaven for all those who, through faith, are shielded by your great power.

In this salvation Lord God, I greatly rejoice, even though now for a little while, we may have to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. I praise you Lord, even in these storms; for they have come so that my faith—of greater worth than gold,—may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.

So I pray Lord that you make my faith genuine through these trials as you have promised; make my faith one of sincere and devoted love for you; love for Christ; love for our neighbor; love for the family of believers.

As you have written Lord “Be holy, because I am holy.” Therefore as obedient children make us holy in all that we do Lord, and in all that we are.

I praise you Lord and I thank you.

In Christ Name I Pray
Amen

A Prayer--of Gratitude for the Hope we have in Christ

I thank you Father for including me among God’s elect. We are strangers in this world Lord, yet chosen according to the foreknowledge of you our God and Father. Through the sanctifying work of the Spirit, you have called us to obedience to Jesus Christ our Lord, and covered us with sprinkling by his blood for the forgiveness of all sins.

As for me Lord there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom I live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom I live.
May your eyes always be upon those who fear you Lord God; may you always guard and protect those whose hope is in your unfailing love given us through Christ Jesus our Lord.

So I earnestly pray to always wait patiently in hope for your mighty deliverance O God; for you are my help and my shield. In you our hearts rejoice, for we trust in your Holy name; we trust in your Son Jesus Christ. I pray that your unfailing love rest upon us, O Lord, even as we put our hope in you all day long.

For the joy of the LORD Jesus is my strength. Though I have not seen you Lord as the Apostles did, I love you; and even though I do not see you now, I believe in you; therefore may you fill me with your inexpressible and glorious joy, for in all my trials and struggles I am indeed receiving the goal of my faith, the salvation of my soul.

Oh, God that my ways were steadfast in obeying your decrees! Then I would not be put to shame when I consider all of your commands. Father I will praise you with an upright heart as I learn your righteous laws. I will obey your decrees; please do not utterly forsake me.

How can I keep my way pure? By living according to your commands through Christ!!
I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands; do not let my heart stray from Jesus Christ. I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.

Praise be to you, O Lord; teach me your decrees in Christ. With my lips I recount all the laws that come from your mouth. I rejoice in following Christ as one rejoices in great riches. I meditate on your percepts and consider your ways. I delight in your love O God; I will not neglect your word.

I will praise you, O Lord, with all my heart. Before the Saints I will sing your praise. I will bow down in worship and praise for your great name; and I will give thanks for your great love and your faithfulness, to us in Christ Jesus our Lord.

For you have exalted Christ above all things; and you have exalted your word in our hearts. When I called to you Father, you answered me; you made me bold in Christ, and gave me a steadfast spirit.

May all of creation praise you, O Lord, when they hear the words of your mouth! As for you O God, you way is perfect; and the word of the LORD is flawless. May all of creation sing of the ways of the Lord, for the glory of the Lord is great! 

Though you are exalted on high O Lord, you look with compassion and mercy upon the lowly. Though we walk in the midst of trails and troubles, you preserve the lives of those in Christ; and you bless the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

With your right hand, Christ, you will save us O God that we may declare the praises of him who called us out of darkness into his wonderful light.

A Prayer—Put Your Hope and Trust In God

As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet and worship my God?

There are times O Lord, when worries and trials seem like food to me, while the enemy says to me all day long, “Where is your God?” These things I remember as I continue to pour out my soul to you: how I so enjoy the fellowship of the believers, as we offer praise and worship in the house of God, with shouts of joy and thanksgiving to exalt our God! 

So, why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? I will put my hope and trust in God, for I will yet praise you my Savior and my God! 

My soul is downcast within me at times Father; therefore I will remember you O God; I will remember the love and sacrifice of your son, Jesus Christ our savior. From the land of the beautiful flowing Jordan, to a trip down the Via Delarosa deep calls to deep in the roar of your divine waterfalls; for all your waves and breakers in Christ have swept over me.

By day O Lord direct the love of Christ in my heart, at night may a song of praise be with me along with a prayer to the God of my life. I say to God my Rock, do not forget your faithful Saints O God even as some go about mourning and suffering as the enemy taunts us, all day long, saying: Where is your God? Where is your God?

So, why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? I will put my hope and trust in God, for I will yet praise you my Savior and my God.

A Prayer—The Lord Reigns

The LORD reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice over your salvation O God. Clouds and thick darkness surround you; righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne. 

Your throne, O God, will last forever and ever; a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you, the Christ, above your companions to bring God’s salvation to all mankind.

Fire goes before you O Christ, and consumes your foes on every side. Your lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles. The mountains melt like wax before the LORD, before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim your righteousness, and all the peoples will see your glory.

For you, O LORD, are the Most High over all the earth; you are exalted far above all gods. Let those who love you O LORD hate evil, for you guard the lives of your faithful ones and deliver us from the hands of evil. 

Light is shed upon the righteous in your name, and joy on the upright in heart. So we rejoice in the LORD Jesus Christ; and may all in Christ praise your holy name.

(Essential Memory Scripture) 

Although we live in this world O Lord, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons that you have given us in Christ to fight with are not the weapons of this world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. 

And by the Power and the authority granted me through faith in the death, resurrection, and the ascension Jesus Christ, I here and now demolish all arguments and every pretension that would dare set itself up against the knowledge of God in my life. We demolish the spirits of pride, greed, doubt, unbelief, (name whatever else needs to be named) and the love of the things of this world. 

And through the Power of your Holy Spirit, O God, we here and now take captive every thought to make them all obedient to Jesus Christ our Lord

A Prayer—for the Newtown, Conn. Tragedy 

Lord God I say a special prayer for the families, teachers, school administrators, social workers, first responders, police, medical personnel, relatives, churches, and all that are affected by the horrible tragedy in Newtown Conn.

So we cry out to you O God, on their behalf and give thanks that you have heard our prayers for them. For we know that many are brokenhearted, and crushed in Spirit, so please save them from these times of great grieving, O God; deliver them according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion.

You have promised us O Lord that you will bless those who mourn by bringing them comfort. So have mercy on them O God, and bring comfort to the parents of those that have lost their beloved children today for they are your children Lord. Tonight Lord they are grieving bitterly, so I ask that out of your great love, you please bring them your unfailing compassion for great is your faithfulness to your promises to mankind O God.

Comfort those who have lost a father, or a mother, or a brother, or a sister, or a spouse or a relative or a friend O Lord.

Holy Father, please guide and bless and comfort the children that witnessed and survived this epic tragedy. As these children go through the days, and weeks, and months, and even years ahead, they require your continued healing power, and your comfort Father. Guide them Lord God; heal them Father, for only you can comfort the broken hearted; only you can save those crushed in spirit. So in Christ name O God I ask that you heal these suffering and frightened children. Grant them your peace that transcends understanding as they grieve and mourn the loss of their school mates.

The Responders O God carrying the bodies of your children from the school, the medical personnel, the children and the teachers all have pictures in their hearts and minds that they are not likely to ever forget. So I pray Father that you heal them all, without limit. They have all been deeply scared and emotionally injured so we ask that you bind up their wounded hearts and lives, and bring them news of your unfailing love. 

I am so very sorry Lord that all this has happened to grieve you so greatly Lord, for I know that you are deeply grieved over the murder of your children and that your heart is filled with pain. Bring news of you unfailing love to us all O God. Heal us all, for nothing is impossible for the Lord our beloved God.
And I especially pray than many will say let us return to the Lord our God for He alone is the God of all comfort and his mercy is very great.

A Prayer—Of Worship

O Sovereign God, you are light; and in Father there is no darkness at all! So teach us O Lord to worship you in the Splendor of your Holiness; teach us O Lord to worship you in spirit and in truth, always loving and revering your Holy name.

Thank you O God, for the power you have granted us to overcome the arrows and schemes of the evil one by the precious Blood of the Lamb. Give us the strength and courage to hold firmly to Jesus Christ our Sovereign Lord and Savior, for greater is the One who is in us than the one who is in the world.

Therefore I will fall down before him who sits on the throne, and worship him who lives forever and ever. And my heart will always mirror the holy angels in heaven and declare by faith and with the power of your Holy Spirit within me O God that “You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were all created and have their being.”

It is you O God, which has given us life, and breath, and everything else. For in you we live and we move and we have our being.

So I submit my life to you wholeheartedly O Lord, and ask that your Holy Spirit guide me into all truth, and please lead my faith and my love deeper into Jesus this day.

Out of the depths of my heart I cry to you, O Lord; O Lord my God, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy, for greater faith, for strength to overcome, for your Holy Spirit to guide me into all truth. 

Just as the Apostles earnestly prayed so I Pray in earnest dear God: Lord increase my faith; Lord increase our faith. Grant us a Spirit of wisdom and revelation to know your better, O God; to love and revere your Holy name always.

If you, O Lord, kept a record of our sins who could stand in your divine presence? But with you Father, there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared O God. 

I wait for you O Lord, my soul waits, and in your word I put my hope. My soul waits for you my God. We your Saints have put our hope in your promises; we have placed our hope in your Son. For He, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is the “Amen”; He is the faithful and true witness, and He is the ruler of God’s creation. In Him O God is your unfailing love; and with Him there is full redemption. 

So Father, I have stilled and quieted my soul as I wait for this hope that you have so generously placed in our hearts. Like a weaned child with its mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me. 

Therefore, I will be still, and know that you are God; be exalted among the nations O God, be exalted in all the earth.

Holy Father, I pray that this day, and every day of my life, that I will accept your every word, and store up the commands of Christ deep in my heart; I turn my ears to your wisdom Father, and apply my heart to understanding the mystery of Jesus Christ.

Jesus, I call out today for deeper insight into the depth and knowledge of your love; and cry aloud for understanding of the way the Father has chosen for me. May I seek you on this narrow road as if looking for silver or gold. May I seek the living God, as if looking for hidden treasure; and may you grant me the great gift to understand what it means to fear the LORD MY GOD; and may we find the precious knowledge of God found only in Jesus Christ.

For only the LORD our God gives wisdom; and from your mouth come knowledge and understanding. Jesus, may you always be a shield for my life, and keep my way blameless before you. For you will guard and protect the course of my life, and keep me as one of your faithful ones.

A Prayer—Ask the Lord of the Harvest

Lord as the people of God earnestly carry out your will here on earth; and since we know with certainty that you have made Jesus both Lord and Christ, I pray that many in this upcoming season of harvest would be cut to the heart by the Gospel of Peace.

For all those whom you will call through our ministries Father, I pray that many would accept the message of the Gospel of peace, repent, and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of their sins and rejoice as they receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 

As you add more and more of those being saved to your Churches Lord, I pray that the body of Christ would be devoted like never before, to the teachings of your holy Apostles, and Prophets, as seen in the Word of God. I pray also that we would devote ourselves to loving and serving the family of believers; devote ourselves to the breaking bread together; and I especially pray that we would devote ourselves to prayer during the 2013 season of harvest. 

As we continue to faithfully meet together as you command O God, I pray that you and Christ would be the sovereign common feature united us in your work. Grant us O Lord, glad and sincere hearts, as we praise you our Lord and our God; and I pray that each day you would send to us all those whom you are calling to salvation so that we may obey you and lead many to Jesus Christ.

I Pray that you grant us lives like the seed on good soil with noble and good hearts, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop one hundred, sixty or thirty times what you have sown in our hearts, through faith! 

Father, the harvest is plentiful but the worker are so few; so we ask you as the Lord of the harvest to send forth many workers into you harvest field for the 2013 harvest season.

I pray that the gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ would grow like never before, and bear much fruit: in our individual lives & relationships, in our families, in our households, in our small bible groups, in our churches, in our communities, in our nation, and all over the world.

In all that you will do in us and through us O God, I pray that we would trust in you with all our hearts, for it is you O God who works in us to will and to act according to your good purpose.

As the schemes and arrows of Satan come against us Lord God, enable us to speak your word with great boldness. Stretch out your hand to heal and perform miraculous signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus Christ transforming life after life before our very eyes. For in Jesus’ name O God, we declare to our enemies that greater is the one who is in us than the one who is in the world.

And I pray that many will accept the message of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ this season, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand, and be baptized, every one of them, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of their sins.

And I pray that as you work powerfully among us O God, that as one our hearts would declare:

To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!

A Prayer—Pouring out of God’s Spirit

Lord God, nothing is impossible for you. So we pray that the coming new year will begin a season where we are like the captives that you brought back from Zion, may we be like men and women who dreamed. Fill our mouths dear God with laughter and our tongues with songs of joy because of the abundant fruit that you will bear among us in this coming season. 

May it be said among the nations that the Lord our God has done great things for them. The Lord has done great things among us and our hearts are filled with joy. So pour your Spirit out on us in abundance O God so that your sons and daughters will speak boldly our testimony of Jesus, for this testimony, by your Sovereign Word, is the spirit of prophecy. 

May your Saints dream dreams, and see visions both men and women. Show wonders in the heavens O God, and on the earth below. And may many call on the name of the Lord and be saved.
In Jesus name I Pray
Amen

A Prayer—Deeply Rooted in Christ, by Faith 

For all of these reasons I kneel before you Father, from whom the whole family in heaven and on earth derive our names. I pray that out of your glorious riches given the Saints in the heavenly realms that you will strengthen each of us with power through the Holy Spirit in our inner being, so that Christ may dwell in our hearts through faith. 

And I pray that we would be deeply rooted and established in His love; and be granted the power, together with all the Saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Jesus Christ. I pray, O God, to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that we may be filled to the measure of all the fullness and glory of our Lord God Almighty! 

Now to you, the blessed Father, knowing that you are able to do immeasurably more than all we can ask or even begin to imagine, according to your power that is at work within us, to you be glory in the Church; to you be glory in our lives; to your be glory in our families; to you be the glory in our eternal faith in Christ Jesus our Savior, throughout all generations, forever and ever! 

May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.

In Christ Name I Pray
Amen!

A Prayer—Song of Praise, God be Exalted

My heart is steadfast, O God; my heart is steadfast! I will sing and make music with all my soul. Awake, O heart; awake, O my soul! I will awaken the dawn of the light of Christ in my heart. I will praise Him, O Lord, among the peoples; 

I will sing of you among the Saints. For great is your love O God, higher than the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies. Be exalted in our lives, O God; let your glory shine above the heavens; and let the splendor of your holiness be revealed to all the earth. 

Save us and help us with the One at your right hand that those you love may be delivered. Who will bring us to the fortified City of God? Who will lead us to eternity? With you, Lord God, we will gain this great victory in Christ; and with His blood and the word of our testimony you will trample down the enemy’s arrows & schemes coming against us; and we will resist him with the power of the Cross standing firm and steadfast in our faith.

In Christ Name I Pray
Amen

A Prayer--of Love

Father, we thank you for showing your love among us by sending your one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. I praise you Father that this is indeed your great love for us. It is not as if we loved you, but that you loved us and sent your Son Jesus as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Thank you Lord God for this gift of life! Thank you Lord! Thank you!

Although mankind has never seen you God, nor has it heard your voice or seen your form, we ask you to enable us O God to obey your command to love one another; and we give thanks to you Father that you our God live in us and your love is made complete in us by the love we have for one another. 

Therefore we know and we testify that out of your deep love for us you sent your Son Jesus to be the Savior of the world. And we will further testify Lord, and give thanks, that whoever acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, has your assurance that you our precious God lives in them and them in God. 

And so Lord, teach us to know and rely on this deep love that you our God have for us because you, O God, are love. Teach us, O Lord, to live in love and live in you our God; and Father we give thanks that you our God in turn will live in us. In this way make love complete among us so that we will have confidence on the Day of Judgment, because in this world we are like you, as ambassadors of Christ

We know also Father that there is no fear in love. So we pray that your perfect love drive all fear from us because the one who fears is not made perfect in love. 

We love you Father, because you first loved us. So may we love others Lord for anyone who does not love his others, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. And you have given us this command to obey God, and may we obey it with all our heart: Whoever loves God must also love others.
In Christ Name I Pray
Amen

A Prayer--The Joy of Salvation 

I give thanks and praise to you my God, the Father of my Lord Jesus Christ, because you have blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ Jesus. I stand in awe Lord God that you chose me in Christ before you even created the world to be holy and blameless in your sight! 

Who am I, O Sovereign Lord, and what is my family, that you have adopted us into this royal priesthood! For you know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word or even a prayer is on my tongue you know it completely, O Lord. My sins are laid bare before you Lord, since nothing in all creation is hidden from your sight.

Father, even though I am not innocent and fall short of the glory of God, you have laid your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain. Therefore Lord with gratitude and sincerity of heart, I will forever declare the praises of Him who called me out of darkness and into his wonderful light! 

For once I was lost, dead in my sins and transgression in which I use to live. But now you have made me alive in Christ Jesus my Lord, and you have enabled me to embrace such a great salvation in Him.

So now Father, grant me a heart of compassion and humility. I pray to seek your peace and pursue your will with all my heart; for I know that your eyes are always upon me and that your ears are always attentive to my prayers. 

For you have lavished your love in Christ Jesus upon me Father, with all wisdom and understanding; you have marked us in Christ with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit; and you have enabled my heart to set apart Christ Jesus as Lord! 

So I declare that you are my God, and I will give you thanks; you are my God, and I will exalt you. I give you thanks Father, for you alone are good, and you steadfast love in Christ Jesus endures forever.
In Christ Name I Pray
Amen
