Genuine Faith

Heavenly Father, in Jesus’ Name, develop in me genuine faith like Habakkuk had in Habakkuk 3:19 in spite of all his difficulties. “The LORD God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer’s feet, and He will make me walk on my high hills.“

Jesus Christ, the True Light

Heavenly Father, in Jesus’ Name, I thank You that the life and light referred to in the Old Testament’s golden lamp stand are now represented by Jesus Christ, God’s true tabernacle. Psalm 27:1 “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?“

Forgiving and Loving Others

Merciful Heavenly Father, in Jesus’ Name, keep me sensitive and practicing the instruction in Colossians 3:13. “Bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do.“

A Gift from God

Gracious Heavenly Father, in Jesus’ Name, thank you for ​giving me the gift the world cannot give, as expressed in John 14: 27. “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.“

Using the Right Words

All wise Heavenly Father, in Jesus’ Name, direct my speech to always follow Colossians 4:6. “Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.“

God’s Promise of Completion

Heavenly Father, in Jesus’ Name, thank you for the promise You expressed through Paul in Philippians 1:6. “Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.“
