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.

The Last Days (2Timothy 3:1-9) GNT

1   Remember that there will be difficult times in the last days.
2   People will be selfish, greedy, boastful, and conceited; they will be insulting, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, and irreligious;
3   they will be unkind, merciless, slanderers, violent, and fierce; they will hate the good;
4   they will be treacherous, reckless, and swollen with pride; they will love pleasure rather than God;
5   they will hold to outward form of religion, but reject its real power.  Keep away from such people.
6   Some of them go into people's houses and gain control over weak women who are burdened by the guilt of their sin and driven by all kinds of desires,
7   women who are always trying to learn but who can never come to know the truth.
8   As Jannes and Jambres were opposed to Moses, so also these people are opposed to the truth---people whose minds do not function and who are failures in faith.
9    But they will not get very far, because everyone will see how studpid they are.  That is just what happened to Jannes and Jambres.

Four Things That Determine Your Habits(Various Scriptures)

1)  Words
Speak & read the Word of God daily. 
(Luke 4:4)  But Jesus answered, "The Scripture says, 'Man can not live on bread alone.' "
Words are the most powerful thing in the universe.
Be careful not to hang around people who speak negative things into your life.

2)  Your Thoughts
What are you thinking?  (Philippians 4:8) In conclusion, my brothers, fill your minds with those things that are good and deserve praise; things that are true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and honorable.

You must learn how to think and what to think on.   (Philippians 4:6) Don't worry about anything, but in all your prayers ask God for what you need, always asking with a thankful heart.

Cast down imaginations.  Every sin starts with a thought -- therefore you must, determine your thoughts. (IICorinthians 10:4-5)  4 The weapons we use in our fight are not the world's weapons but God's powerful weapons, which we use to destroy strongholds.  We destroy false arguments;  5 we pull down every proud obstacle that is raised against the knowledge of God; we take every thought captive and make it obey Christ.

3)  Emotions
Do not be led by your emotions but by actions--not allowing your emotions to control you.  (Psalms 118:24)  This is the day of the Lord's victory; let us be happy, let us celebrate!

4)  Actions
Be doers of the Word.  Do whatever it takes to walk in the Word.  Make a decision to do so. (James 1:21-25)  21  So get rid of every filthy habit and all wicked conduct.  Submit to God and accept the word that he plants in your hearts, which is able to save you. 
22  Do not deceive yourselves by just listening to his word; instead, put it into practice.  23  Whoever listens to the word but does not put it into practice is like a man who looks in the mirror and sees himself as he is.  24  He takes a good look at himself and then goes away and at once forgets what he looks like.  25  But whoever looks closely into the perfect law that sets people free, who keeps on paying attention to it and does not simply listen and then forget it, but puts it into practice---that person will be blessed by God in what he does.

Learn to examine yourself often.  You must acquire a PhD in SELF.

The Day Of The Lord (Joel 2:28-32)

28  "Afterward I will pour out my spirit on everyone; your sons and daughters will proclaim my mesage;  your old men will have dreams and your young men will see visions.
29    At that time I will pour out my spirit even on servants, both men and women.
30    "I will give warnings of that day in the sky and on the earth; there will be bloodshed, fire, and clouds of smoke.
31    The sun will be darkened, and the moon will turn red as blood before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes.
32     But all who ask the Lord for help will be saved.  As the Lord has said, 'Some in Jerusalem will escape; those whom I choose wll survive'."

A Call To Repentance (Joel 2:12-14)

12  "But even now," says the Lord, "repent sincerely and return to me with fasting and weeping and mourning.
13   Let your broken heart show your sorrow; tearing your clothes is not enough."  Come back to the Lord your God. 
       He is kind an full of mercy; he is patient and keeps his promise; he is always ready to forgive and not punish.
14   Perhaps the Lord your God will change his mind and bless you with abundant crops. Then you can offer him grain and wine.

Hope Returns When I Remember This One Thing: (Lamentations 3:19-29)

19  The thought of my pain, my homelessness, is bitter poison.
20  I think of it constantly, and my spirit is depressed.
21  Yet hope returns when I remember this one thing:
22  The Lord's unfailing love and mercy still continue,
23  Fresh as the morning, as sure as the sunrise.
24  The Lord is all I have, and so in him I put my hope.
25  The Lord is good to everyone who trust in him,
26   So it is best for us to wait in patience--to wait on him to save us----
27   And it is best to learn this patience in our youth.
28   When we suffer, we should sit alone in silent patience;
29   We should bow in submission, for there may still be hope.


Lamentations 3:19-29 (GNT)

The Lord Is On My Side (Isaiah 50:7-11)

7   But their insults cannot hurt me because the Sovereign Lord gives me help.  I brace myself to endure them.  I know that I will not be disgraced,
8   for God is near, and he will prove me innocent.  Does anyone dare bring charges against me?  Let us go to court together! Let him bring his accusation!
9   The Sovereign Lord himself defends me---who, then, can prove me guilty?  All my accusers will disappear; they will vanish like moth-eaten cloth.

10  All of you that have reverence for the Lord and obey the words of his servant, the path you walk may be dark indeed, but trust in the Lord, rely on your God.
11  All of you that plot to destroy others will be destroyed by our own plots.  The Lord himself will make this happen; you will suffer a miserable fate.***


Amen:)
