Psalms 21 Prayer

O’Lord, I shall joy in Your strength, and in Your salvation how greatly shall He rejoice!  You have given Him His heart’s desire and have not withheld the request of His lips. For You anticipate Him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of pure gold on His head.  He asked life of You, and You gave it to Him, even length of days forever and ever.  His glory is great in Your salvation: honour and majesty have You laid upon Him.  For You have made Him most blessed for ever: You have made Him exceeding glad with Your countenance.  He trusts in You LORD, and through the mercy of the most High, He shall not be moved.  Your hand shall find out all Your enemies: Your right hand shall find out those that hate You.  You shall make them as a fiery oven in the time of Your anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in His wrath, and the fire shall devour them.  Their fruit You shall destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.  For they intended evil against You: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform. Therefore You shall make them turn their back, when You shall make ready Your arrows upon Your strings against the face of them.  Be exalted, LORD, in Your own strength: so we will sing and praise Your power, Amen

How We Are Put Right With God (Romans 3:21-30)GNT

21       But now God's way of putting people right with himself has been revealed. It has nothing to do with law, even though the Law of Moses and the prophets gave their witness to it.

22       God puts people right through their faith in Jesus Christ. God does this to all who believe in Christ, because there is no difference at all:

23       everyone has sinned and is far away from God's saving presence.

24       But by the free gift of God's grace all are put right with him through Christ Jesus, who sets them free.

25-26  God offered him, so that by his blood he should become the means by which people's sins are forgiven through their faith in him. God did this in order to demonstrate that he is righteous. In the past he was patient and overlooked people's sins; but in the present time he deals with their sins, in order to demonstrate his righteousness. In this way God shows that he himself is righteous and that he puts right everyone who believes in Jesus.

27        What, then, can we boast about? Nothing! And what is the reason for this? Is it that we obey the Law? No, but that we believe.
28         For we conclude that a person is put right with God only through faith, and not by doing what the Law commands.
29        Or is God the God of the Jews only? Is he not the God of the Gentiles also? Of course he is.
30        God is one, and he will put the Jews right with himself on the basis of their faith, and will put the Gentiles right through their faith.³¹ Does this mean that by this faith we do away with the Law? No, not at all; instead, we uphold the Law.

Children Of God (1John3:1-10) GNT

1  See how much the Father has loved us! His love is so great that we are called God's children—and so, in fact, we are. This is why the world does not know us: it has not known God.

2  My dear friends, we are now God's children, but it is not yet clear what we shall become. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he really is.

3  Everyone who has this hope in Christ keeps himself pure, just as Christ is pure.

4  Whoever sins is guilty of breaking God's law, because sin is a breaking of the law.

5   You know that Christ appeared in order to take away sins,  and that there is no sin in him.

6   So everyone who lives in union with Christ does not continue to sin; but whoever continues to sin has never seen him or known him.

7  Let no one deceive you, my children! Whoever does what is right is righteous, just as Christ is righteous.

8  Whoever continues to sin belongs to the Devil, because the Devil has sinned from the very beginning. The Son of God appeared for this very reason, to destroy what the Devil had done.

9  Those who are children of God do not continue to sin, for God's very nature is in them; and because God is their Father, they cannot continue to sin.

10 Here is the clear difference between God's children and the Devil's children: those who do not do what is right or do not love others are not God's children.

Happiness (Psalms 1) NLT

NEW LIVING TRANSLATION

1  Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers.

2  But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night.

3  They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season.  Their leaves never wither,     and they prosper in all they do.

4  But not the wicked! They are like worthless chaff, scattered by the wind.

5  They will be condemned at the time of judgment.  Sinners will have no place among the godly.

6  For the Lord watches over the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction.

Ephesians 3:16-21 (Prayer for you and Family/friend)

(add family member(s) or friend(s) name(s) in the blank spaces)

Heavenly Father, I pray according to Ephesians 3:16-21, I ask You to grant each of us, myself, _____, and _____ according to the riches of Christ Jesus’ glory, I ask You to strengthen our inner man with might through Christ Jesus, that through faith, Christ may dwell in our hearts; that we are rooted and grounded in love, and we may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height of Christ’ love – to know the love of Christ; that we may be filled with all the fullness of You, Heavenly Father. I thank You that Christ Jesus is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us, to Him be the glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen! 

How To Be Wise (Proverbs 9:10-18) GNT

10   To be wise you must first have reverence for the Lord.  If you know the Holy One, you have understanding.
11  Wisdom will add years to your life.
12   You are the one who will profit if you have wisdom, and if you reject it, you are the one who will suffer.
13   Stupidity is like a loud, ignorant, shameless woman.
14   She sits at the door of her house or on a seat in the highest part of town
15   and calls out to people passing by, who are minding their own business.
16   "Come in, ignorant people!"  To the foolish man she says,
17   "Stolen water is sweeter.  Stolen bread taste better."
18   Her victims do not know that the people die who go to her house, that those who have already entered are now deep in the world of the dead.

Victory In Jesus

Heavenly Father, I thank you that I have received from Jesus Christ the victory over all diseases, afflictions, infirmities, hindrances, persecutions, torments and lies that the enemy is trying to send my way now or in the future.  I claim victory and deliverance from all demonic spirits, curses, hexes, vexes, enchantments, witchcraft prayers, psychic prayers, or spells.  I thank you that Jesus Christ is victorious through the power of His might against all the wiles of the devil; against principalities and powers and rulers of darkness of this world and against spiritual wickedness in high places. (Eph. 6:10-12) I claim my victory in faith through my salvation and His shed Blood of all these things now. I declare according to Job 22:27-28 that I am victorious through the shed Blood of Jesus Christ, in His Holy Name I pray.  Amen

My God I Trust You (Psalms 31 Prayer)

O' God, I come to You in both humble faith and in prayer; I come, and I lay before Your feet, my every burden and care. Hear me gracious God, my cry to You. Hear me, as I pray. Save me, and strengthen me. I know you are abiding in me each day. You O' God, are my Rock. You are my shelter and my mighty fortress; my comfort in times of sorrow; my peace in times of pain and distress. O' my God, I trust in You! On Your divine promises, I shall stand firmly; I belong to You. I know I am safe and secure in the palm of Your mighty hand. Be my protection from the assaults and attacks from the enemy and from sin; And when my spirit grows weary, let Your Word and Spirit, revive me again. O' my God, I trust in You! I call daily upon Your blessed Holy Name; Let not my faith and trust in You be put to shame. Praise the Lord! I will trust in You to keep me strong; Guide me, O' Lord, and keep me from all sin and wrong thinking. O' my God, I trust in You to keep me and hold me in Your loving arms. You, Lord Jesus, look upon our souls, when we are in trouble. You search our souls, O’Lord to see if we are truly humbled by our sin and made better by our affliction. I trust You, Lord Jesus, to bring us through every danger and deliverance until we are delivered from death, our last enemy. In Jesus Name I pray. In God Be the Glory. Amen.

Humbling Myself Before The Lord (Prayer)

And seek You every day.

With my ears let me hear Lord

Every time You call.

I give myself to You Lord

I will obey Your Law.

I give my hands to You Lord

I lift them up in praise

I will worship You Lord

All my blessed days.

My mouth I give to You Lord

I shout with victory

I belong to You Lord

Now I am living free.

Amen

Obedience To Your Word (Psalms 119:9-16) NIV

9     How can a young man keep his way pure?  By living according to your Word.
10   I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands.
11   I have hidden your Word in my heart that I might not sin against you.
12   Praise be to you, O Lord; teach me your decrees.
13   With my lips I recount all the laws that come from your mouth.
14    I rejoice in following your statues as one rejoices in great riches.
15    I meditate on your precepts and consider your ways.
16    I delight in your decrees; I will not neglect your Word. 

God's Divine Power Has Given Us Everything (2Peter 1:3-8) GNT

3   God's divine power has given us everything we need to live a truly religious life through our knowledge of the one who called us to share in his own^[a] glory and goodness.
4    In this way he has given us the very great and precious gifts he promised, so that by means of these gifts you may escape from the destructive lust that is in the world, and may come to share the divine nature.
5    For this very reason do your best to add goodness to your faith; to your goodness add knowledge;
6    to your knowledge add self-control; to your self-control add endurance; to your endurance add godliness;
7    to your godliness add Christian affection; and to your Christian affection add love.
8    These are the qualities you need, and if you have them in abundance, they will make you active and effective in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

God's Grace Has Blessed Us

John 1:16          Out of the fullness of his grace he has blessed us all, giving us one blessing after another.

 John 1:17         God gave the Law through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

Acts 15:11          No! We believe and are saved by the grace of the Lord Jesus, just as they are.

Acts 20:24          But I reckon my own life to be worth nothing to me; I only want to complete my mission and finish the work that the Lord Jesus gave me to do, which is to declare the Good News about the grace of God.

Romans 3:24      But by the free gift of God's grace all are put right with him through Christ Jesus, who sets them free.

Romans 5:20      Law was introduced in order to increase wrongdoing; but where sin increased, God's grace increased much more.

Romans 5:21       So then, just as sin ruled by means of death, so also God's grace rules by means of righteousness, leading us to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Romans 6:14       Sin must not be your master; for you do not live under law but under God's grace.

Romans 6:15       What, then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law but under God's grace? By no means! (Slaves of Righteousness )

Romans 11:5       It is the same way now: there is a small number left of those whom God has chosen because of his grace.

Romans 11:6        His choice is based on his grace, not on what they have done. For if God's choice were based on what people do, then his grace would not be real grace

Romans 12:6        So we are to use our different gifts in accordance with the grace that God has given us. If our gift is to speak God's message, we should do it according to the faith that we have;

God's Judgement and Grace Psalms (52:1-9) GNT

1   Why do you boast, great one, of your evil? God's faithfulness is eternal.
2   You make plans to ruin others; your tongue is like a sharp razor.  You are always inventing lies.
3   You love evil more than good and falsehood more than truth.
4   You love to hurt people with your words, you liar!
5   So God will ruin you forever; he will take hold of you and snatch you from your home; he will remove you from the world of the living.
6   Righteous people will see this and be afraid; then they will laugh at you and say,
7   Look, here is someone who did not depend on God for safety, but trusted instead in great wealth and looked for security in being wicked.
8    But I am like an olive tree growing in the house of God; I trust in his constant love forever and ever.
9    I will always thank you, God, for what you have done; in the presence of your people I will proclaim that you are good.

Ephesians 1:17-23 Prayer

 Heavenly Father, I pray according to Your Word, Ephesians 1:17-23, that You will give each of us a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Christ Jesus. I pray that the eyes of our understanding will be enlightened so we may know what is the hope of the calling of Christ Jesus and the riches of the glory of Christ Jesus’ inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of Your power towards us who believe, according to the working of Your mighty power which You used to raise Christ Jesus from the dead and seated Him at Your right hand in heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the age which is to come. Heavenly Father, I thank You that You put all things under the feet of Christ Jesus, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all. To God be the Glory. Heavenly Father, open my eyes that I may see how great You are and how complete Your  provision is for me. I thank You that the victory the Lord Christ Jesus won for me on the Cross and in His resurrection has been given to me and I am seated with the Lord Christ Jesus in the heavenlies. Heavenly Father, by faith and in dependence upon You; I put off the fleshly works of the old man and stand unto all the victory of the crucifixion where the Lord Christ Jesus provided cleansing from the old nature. I put on myself the new man and I stand into all the victory of the resurrection and the provisions that Christ Jesus has made for me. Heavenly Father, I put off all forms of selfishness and put on myself the new nature of Jesus Christ with its love. I put off all forms of fear and put the new nature of Jesus Christ with its courage. I put off all forms of lust and put on the new nature with its righteousness, purity, and honesty. I am trusting You to show each of us how to accomplish his in our daily lives. In every way I stand into the victory of the ascension and glorification of the Lord Christ Jesus, whereby all principalities and powers were made subject to Christ Jesus. I claim our place in Christ as victorious with Him over all the enemies of our souls. Holy Spirit, I pray that You would fill us. Come into our lives, breakdown every idol and cast out every foe and continually lead us in prayer. I am thankful Heavenly Father for the expression of Your will for our daily lives that You have shown us in Your Word. By the power of the Lord Christ Jesus; I claim all the will and destiny of God for each of us. I am thankful that You have blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. I am thankful that You have begotten us unto a living hope by the resurrection of Christ Jesus from the dead. I am thankful that You have made provision for us so that we can be filled with the Spirit of God with love, joy, peace, with longsuffering, gentleness and goodness, with meekness, faithfulness and self-control in our lives. I recognize that it is Your will for us and I therefore reject and resist all the efforts of satan and his wicked spirits to rob us of the will of God. Lord Jesus, I ask You to put a hedge of protection around our minds to protect us from the enemy of all accusations, distortions, insinuations and lies. I claim the fullness of the will of God for our lives. In the Name of the Lord Christ Jesus, I completely surrender myself to You Heavenly Father, as a living sacrifice. I choose not to be conformed to this world. I choose to be transformed by the renewing of my mind and I pray that You would show me Your will and enable me to walk in Your will. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I bind my will to the will of God, I bind my mind to the mind of Christ. To God be the Glory. Amen!

Repentance For A Wrong Attitude Prayer

Lord Jesus Christ I ask You to forgive me for the sin of grumbling and complaining, for not walking in faith, and living to the destiny that I have.  Lord Jesus Christ my whining attitude is a thing of the past, I am going to rejoice in the Lord, I am going to accept the mind of Christ, I am going to talk about good things, glorious things, God’s things, I am going to live with joy unspeakable and full of glory and it is going to begin today, in Jesus Name, amen.

Confession Of Faith

                I am now releasing my faith by confessing this to be the greatest day of my life.  “This is the day that the Lord has made; I will rejoice and be glad in it.”  I am a recreated being, “old things have passed away and all things have become new.”  I am created into His glorious image and likeness.  I am His workmanship and am complete in Christ.  I am full of His Spirit and divine power.  I have the fruit of His Spirit, which is love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, kindness, meekness, temperance and faith.  I am humbly submitting myself to the authority of His Holy Word, for, He and His Word are one.  I am obedient to His commandments and He enlarges my capacity to receive “Revelation” knowledge, wisdom, understanding and ability in all things that pertain to life and Godliness.  I am God’s property, I have “been bought with the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.”  Therefore, I am free from the curse of the law.  Sin, sickness, poverty, fear, doubt, worry, confusion and all that satan  represents shall not have dominion over me.

 I am prospering in my spirit, soul, body and finances, for I am a liberated person.  Jesus said, “I will know the truth and the truth would make me free.”  I am “standing fast in the liberty wherein Christ has made me free.”  I am a disciplined person.  I study God’s word daily, I meditate upon its precepts, I confess who Christ is, what He has done and what He is doing in and through me now.  I am acting upon truths and I am expecting God to meet all my needs and, “to do super-abundantly above all I dare ask, hope, dream or desire,” in every area of my life.  I am a beautiful person full of God’s forgiveness and love.  I forgive as God has forgiven me.  I love as God has loved me, therefore, His faith is working in me by love.  I speak directly to every mountain of satanic adversity in my life and command them to go in the Name of Jesus.  They cannot stay they must go in Jesus’ Name.

                Through the abundance of God’s grace, I have received the gift of righteousness and am now reigning in this life by Christ Jesus.  In Genesis 1:24-31 and Genesis 2:8-15, God has told me what it was that a righteous man was to reign over.  Praise God, I am a righteous person and I am reigning over God’s creation now.  “Christ has been made worthy to power, riches, wisdom, strength, honor, glory and blessing.”  I am now a joint heir with Christ and as He is, so am I, in this world.  He has made me worthy to receive all that Jesus represents.  Praise God, I am everything that the Word declares that I am.  I have communicated my faith by acknowledging every good thing which is in me in Christ Jesus.  I worship with all my heart, soul and strength.  I lift up my voice and hands in praise and adoration to His glorious name for He is worthy of praise and He has made me worthy to praise His name.

Blessing Prayer

Heavenly Father, I come to You now in the Name of my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus. Heavenly Father, I  ask You to give me divine healing now in every area of my life, spirit, mind, will, emotions and physical being in accordance with Your Divine Plan and Order for my life. I receive Your Divine Healing, Wholeness and Newness of life, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Lord, I ask You to expand in me Your territories. Lord I ask for and receive beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness: for I am a tree of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that You may be glorified, in Jesus’ Name. Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven,  Heavenly Father, I ask you to give me and every person I prayed for today according to John 16:23, the manifestation of every miracle and every healing You have given to me and the manifestation of divine healing and divine health in my body.  Father, I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus’ Name. Amen!

A Song of Praise (Psalms 40:1-8) GNT

1  I waited patiently for the Lord's help; then he listened to me and heard my cry.
2  He pulled me out of a dangerous pit, out of the deadly quicksand, He set me safely on a rock and made me secure.
3  He taught me to sing a new song, a song of praise to our God.  Many who see this will take warning and will put their trust in the Lord.
4  Happy are those who trust the Lord, who do not turns to idols or join those who worship false gods.
5  You have done many things for us, O Lord our God; there is no one like you! You have made many wonderful plans for us.  I could never speak of them all---their number is so great!
6  You do not want sarifices and offerings; you do not ask for animals burned whole on the altar or for sacrifices to take away sins.  Instead, you have given me ears to hear you,
7  and so I answered, "Here I am; your instructions for me are in the book of the law."
8  How I love to do your will, my God! I keep your teaching in my heart."

In Praise of Wisdom (Proverbs 8) GNT

1   Listen! Wisdom is calling out. Reason is making herself heard.
2   On the hilltops near the road and at the crossroads she stands.
3   At the entrance to the city, beside the gates, she calls:
4    I appeal to all of you;  I call to everyone on earth.
5    Are you immature? Learn to be mature.  Are you foolish? Learn to have sense.
6    Listen to my excellent words;  all I tell you is right.
7    What I say is the truth; lies are hateful to me.
8    Everything I say is true; nothing is false or misleading.
9    To those with insight, it is all clear; to the well-informed, it is all plain.
10   Choose my instruction instead of silver; choose knowledge rather than the finest gold.

11   I am Wisdom, I am better than jewels; nothing you want can compare with me.
12   I am Wisdom, and I have insight; I have knowledge and sound judgment.
13  To honor the Lord is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil ways and false words.
14   I make plans and carry them out.  I have understanding, and I am strong.
15   I help kings to govern and rulers to make good laws.
16   Every ruler on earth governs with my help, officials and nobles alike.
17    I love those who love me; whoever looks for me can find me.
18    I have riches and honor to give, prosperity and success.
19   What you get from me is better than the finest gold, better than the purest silver.
20    I walk the way of righteousness; I follow the paths of justice,

21   giving wealth to those who love me, filling their houses with treasures.
22   The Lord created me first of all, the first of his works, long ago.
23   I was made in the very beginning, at the first, before the world began.
24   I was born before the oceans, when there were no springs of water.
25   I was born before the mountains, before the hills were set in place,
26   before God made the earth and its fields or even the first handful of soil.
27   I was there when he set the sky in place, when he stretched the horizon across the ocean,
28   when he placed the clouds in the sky, when he opened the springs of the ocean
29   and ordered the waters of the sea to rise no further than he said.  I was there when he laid the earth's foundations.
30   I was beside him like an architect,   I was his daily source of joy, always happy in his presence—

31   happy with the world and pleased with the human race.
32   Now, young people, listen to me.  Do as I say, and you will be happy.
33   Listen to what you are taught.  Be wise; do not neglect it.
34  Those who listen to me will be happy—those who stay at my door every day, waiting at the entrance to my home.
35  Those who find me find life, and the Lord will be pleased with them.
36  Those who do not find me hurt themselves; anyone who hates me loves death.

Praise the Lord (Psalm 150) NIV

1  Praise the Lord.  Praise God in His sanctuary; praise Him in His mighty heavens.
2  Praise Him for His acts of power; praise Him for His surpassing greatness,
3  Priase Him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise Him with the harp and lyre,
4  praise Him with tambourine and dancing, praise Him with the strings and flute,
5  praise Him with the clash of cymbals, praise Him with resounding cymbals.
6  Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord.

God's Call And Choice (2Peter3:8) GNT

3  God's divine power has given us everything we need to live a truly religious life through our knowledge of the one who called us to share in His own glory and goodness. 
4  In this way He has given us the very great and precious gifts He promised, so that by means of these gifts you may escape from the destructive lust that is in the world, and may come to share the divine nature.
5  For this very reason do your best to add goodness to your faith; to your goodness add knowledge;
6  to your knowledge add self-control; to your self-control add endurance; to your endurance add godliness;
7  to your godliness add brotherly affection; and to your brotherly affection add love.
8  These are the qualities you need, and if you have them in abundance, they will make your active and effective in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

A Call To Holy Living (IPeter1:13:25)GNT

13  So then, have your minds ready for action. Keep alert and set your hope completely on the blessing which will be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed.
14   Be obedient to God, and do not allow your lives to be shaped by those desires you had when you were still ignorant.
15   Instead, be holy in all that you do, just as God who called you is holy.
16   The scripture says, Be holy because I am holy.
17  You call Him Father, when you pray to God, who judges all people by the same standard, according to what each one has done; so then, spend the rest of your lives here on earth in reverence for Him.
18   For you know what was paid to set you free from the worthless manner of life handed down by your ancestors. It was not something that can be destroyed, such as silver or gold;
19   it was the costly sacrifice of Christ, who was like a lamb without defect or flaw.
20   He had been chosen by God before the creation of the world and was revealed in these last days for your sake.
21   Through Him you believe in God, who raised Him from death and gave Him glory; and so your faith and hope are fixed on God.
22   Now that by your obedience to the truth you have purified yourselves and have come to have a sincere love for other believers, love one another earnestly with all your heart.
23  For through the living and eternal Word of God you have been born again as the children of a parent who is immortal, not mortal.
24   As the scripture says,

         All human beings are like grass,
      and all their glory is like wild flowers.
25  but the Word of the Lord remains forever.
This Word is the Good News that was proclaimed to you.

Jesus Prays (John 17:9-26) GNT

9    "I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those you gave me, for they belong to you.
10   All I have is yours, and all you have is mine; and my glory is shown through them.
11   And now I am coming to you; I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world. Holy Father! Keep them safe by the power of your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one just as you and I are one.
12   While I was with them, I kept them safe by the power of your name, the name you gave me,  I protected them, and not one of them was lost, except the man who was bound to be lost—so that the scripture might come true.
13   And now I am coming to you, and I say these things in the world so that they might have my joy in their hearts in all its fullness.
14   I gave them your message, and the world hated them, because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world.
15   I do not ask you to take them out of the world, but I do ask you to keep them safe from the Evil One.
16   Just as I do not belong to the world, they do not belong to the world.
17   Dedicate them to yourself by means of the truth; your word is truth.
18   I sent them into the world, just as you sent me into the world.
19   And for their sake I dedicate myself to you, in order that they, too, may be truly dedicated to you.
20   I pray not only for them, but also for those who believe in me because of their message.
21   I pray that they may all be one. Father! May they be in us, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they be one, so that the world will believe that you sent me.
22   I gave them the same glory you gave me, so that they may be one, just as you and I are one:
23   I in them and you in me, so that they may be completely one, in order that the world may know that you sent me and that you love them as you love me.
24   Father! You have given them to me, and I want them to be with me where I am, so that they may see my glory, the glory you gave me; for you loved me before the world was made.
25   Righteous Father! The world does not know you, but I know you, and these know that you sent me.
26   I made you known to them, and I will continue to do so, in order that the love you have for me may be in them, and so that I also may be in them."

Asking For Wisdom/Prayer For Wisdom (Various Scriptures)

The Word of God is very clear on asking for Wisdom. Wisdom, true wisdom comes from God. Jesus is as wisdom as declared in His Word in 1Corinthians 1:30, “But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God — and righteousness and sanctification and redemption — God’s Word to us says to ask for His wisdom!  If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord;  he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways (James 1:5-8). So go boldly to the throne of grace through the precious Blood of Jesus Christ and ask for wisdom, call, cry out for wisdom and His promise to us is that our Heavenly Father will give it to you!

Prayer for Wisdom

Heavenly Father, I come to You now in the Name of my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus. Heavenly Father, I  thank you that Your Word gives knowledge, instruction, wisdom, and understanding to all who pay attention to its truths. You promised to impart wisdom to me if I will listen to Your Words and attain unto Your wise counsels.  I, therefore, enter Your presence with trust, knowing that You will give me wisdom according to    II Chronicles 1:10. Heavenly Father, fill me with the spirit of wisdom so that I will be able to discern Your will. With You, Lord, there is both strength and wisdom according to Job 12:13. Heavenly Father, let my mouth speak Your wisdom, Lord, because of the righteousness You have imparted to me according to Psalms 37:30. In the hidden part of my life, make me know Your wisdom according to Psalms 51:6. Teach me to number my  days, so that I may gain a heart of wisdom according to Psalms 90:12. Heavenly Father, Your wisdom and knowledge makes me happy, because the gain of it is better than fine gold. By wisdom You founded the earth, and by knowledge You established the heavens according to Proverbs 3:13-20. Christ Jesus, I thank You that my eyes of Your understanding are continually being enlightened; that I may know Your calling, and the riches of Your glory and Your inheritance for Your saints. I thank You for Your exceeding greatness.  I believe, trust and rely on You only.  Heavenly Father, I believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son, that He died on the cross for my sins, I believe that You, Heavenly Father raised Jesus Christ from the dead and He now sits at Your right hand in heaven according to Ephesians 1:17-23.  Heavenly Father, thank You for sending Jesus who represents Your power and wisdom to us. Because I am in Him – and desire to always abide in Him. He has been made unto me wisdom, and righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. It is this reality that causes me to glory in You forever according to I Corinthians 1:22-31. In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I pray with thanksgiving.  Amen.

Daily Confession Of Faith

In Christ I am anointed and a powerful person of God.  I am a joint-heir with Jesus and more than a conqueror.  I am a doer of the Word of God and a channel for His blessings.

If God be for me, who can be against me?  I am blessed coming in and I am blessed going out.  My enemies are fleeing before me.  God has commanded His blessing on my storehouses.  He has opened His good treasures and I shall lend and not borrow.  I am the head and not the tail.  He has given me power to make wealth.

I dwell in the secret place.  I have His protection and provision.  God is my refuge, my fortress I am not afraid of the snare of the fowler.  No evil shall befall me and no plague shall come nigh my dwelling.  God has given his angels charge over me and they are bearing me up in their hands lest I dash my foot against a stone, as declared in Psalms 91.

I Peter 2:9 establishes I am a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation.

I Peter 2:24 states, I have been healed by the stripes of Jesus.  Cancer, diabetes, heart disease, sickness, afflictions, infections, or any other disease can not enter my body.  I am without spot or blemish, an intercessor, the righteousness of God, saved, and washed in the Blood of Jesus.

No weapon formed against me shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against me in judgement, You shall condemn.  This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from Me, says the Lord.  I am saved from wrath by Him and justified by the Blood of the Lamb.

Lord I pray that those may prosper that love Jerusalem and that peace will be within them and prosperity in their houses according to Psalms 122:6-9.

God Is Light I John1:5-10 (GNT)

5  Now the message that we have heard from his Son and announce is this:  God is light, and there is no darkness at all in him.
6  If, then, we say that we have fellowship with him, yet at the same time live in the darkness, we are lying both in our words and in our actions.
7  But if we live in the light---just as he is in the light---then we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from every sin.
8   If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and there is no truth in us.
9   But if we confess our sins to God, he will keep his promise and what is right; he will forgive us our sins and purify us from all our wrongdoing.
10  If we say that we have not sinned, we make a liar out of God, and his word is not in us. 

Last Instructions (2Timothy 3:10-17) 12/31 continued

10 But you have followed my teaching, my conduct, and my purpose in life; you have observed my faith, my patience, my love, my endurance,
11  my persecutions, and my sufferings.  You know all that happend to me in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra, the terrible persecutions I endured! But the Lord rescued me from them all.
12  Everyone who wants to live a godly life in union with Christ Jesus will be persecuted;
13  and evil persons and impostors will keep on going from bad to worse, deceiving others and being deceived themselves.
14  But as for you, continued in the truths that you were taught and firmly believe.  You know who your teachers were,
15  and you remember that ever since you were a child, you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
16  All Scripture is inpired by God and is useful for teaching the truth, rebuking error, correcting faults, and giving instruction for right living,
17   so that the person who serves God may be fully qualified and equipped to do every kind of good deed.
