 “I am the way, the truth, and the life. 

The words I speak are not my own, 

You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it,

May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me 

Lord God my Father,

Open my spirit to your truth so I may let go of my way. I need your peace to rest in me to the point the world can’t get to it. I wish to produce for your kingdom not mine. I want to react to Satan’s jabs with your peace on my heart.

“Get up and pray, so that you will not give in to temptation.”

But this is your moment, the time when the power of darkness reigns.”

At that moment the Lord turned and looked at Peter. 

Lord God my Father,

May I only follow your plan without including my desire other than to follow you. Place my heart in your care and allow my trust to be whole in you. Protect me from the tempter while I am in this world. I want to please you only.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

“Before the rooster crows, you will deny three times that you even know me.”

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

“So you, too, must keep watch! For you do not know the day or hour of my return.

 ‘Master, you gave me five bags of silver to invest, and I have earned five more.’

28“Then he ordered, ‘Take the money from this servant, and give it to the one with the ten bags of silver. 29To those who use well what they are given, even more will be given, and they will have an abundance.

 But from those who do nothing, even what little they have will be taken away. 

Lord God my Father,

I want to always be looking for you, direct my thoughts and give me bold desire to follow your path. I wish to be obedient to you and need to change my way. Give me wisdom in my actions so I can do kingdom work at all times.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
