Constant Praise

“Look, God’s home is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them.

Let the one who is doing harm continue to do harm; let the one who is vile continue to be vile; let the one who is righteous continue to live righteously; let the one who is holy continue to be holy.”

May the grace of the Lord Jesus be with God’s holy people

Let everything that breathes sing praises to the Lord! Praise the Lord!

Lord God my Father,

I look forward to life eternal with you, Protect my heart and keep me in your blessing. Keep me from wanting to change the darkness around me and use me as the light so darkness has no place to rest. Allow your grace to rest well in my thoughts and actions. I just want to praise you.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Praise

Worship only God. For the essence of prophecy is to give a clear witness for Jesus.

Sing his praises in the assembly of the faithful.

For the Lord delights in his people; he crowns the humble with victory.

Lord God my Father,

I only worship you, that is what I was designed to do. You are life eternal, and praise is my hearts delight.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Praise

Let them all praise the name of the Lord. For his name is very great; his glory towers over the earth and heaven! 14He has made his people strong, honoring his faithful ones—

Lord God my Father,

I praise you as I see you in everything. Your design is obvious and powerful. May your Peace rest powerfully with me.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

One heart, His.

“Yes, O Lord God, the Almighty, your judgments are true and just.”

They are demonic spirits who work miracles and go out to all the rulers of the world to gather them for battle against the Lord on that great judgment day of God the Almighty.

How great is our Lord! His power is absolute! His understanding is beyond comprehension!

Lord God my Father,

You are True and just, darkness hates you and has no power. Help me to live under your authority and give me awareness over the deceiver. Use me for your will.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Pure praise

This great dragon—the ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, the one deceiving the whole world—was thrown down to the earth with all his angels.

Therefore, rejoice, O heavens! And you who live in the heavens, rejoice! But terror will come on the earth and the sea, for the devil has come down to you in great anger, knowing that he has little time.”

 Then the statue of the beast commanded that anyone refusing to worship it must die.

Let all that I am praise the Lord. 2I will praise the Lord as long as I live.

The Lord frees the prisoners. 8The Lord opens the eyes of the blind. The Lord lifts up those who are weighed down. The Lord loves the godly.

Lord God my Father,

Give me a spirit that only hears your Truth, protect me from the deceiver. May Praise and Joy be the power that leads me and protects me from fear, keep me in a constant state of praise. Free me from allowing any thoughts of doubt from entering me.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

On task

It is time to destroy all who have caused destruction on the earth.”

I will meditate on your majestic, glorious splendor and your wonderful miracles.

All of your works will thank you, Lord, and your faithful followers will praise you.

The Lord protects all those who love him, but he destroys the wicked.

Lord God my Father,

Help me to reveal your peace to those around me, guide me as I meditate on your splendor. Protect me from evil distractions.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Worthy

Then I began to weep bitterly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll and read it.

“Blessing and honor and glory and power belong to the one sitting on the throne and to the Lamb forever and ever.”

The godly will crowd around me, for you are good to me.”

But the people who did not die in these plagues still refused to repent of their evil deeds and turn to God. They continued to worship demons and idols made of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood—idols that can neither see nor hear nor walk! 21And they did not repent of their murders or their witchcraft or their sexual immorality or their thefts.

Their mouths are full of lies; they swear to tell the truth, but they lie instead.

Yes, joyful are those who live like this! Joyful indeed are those whose God is the Lord.

Lord God my Father,

Bring the worthy to power, groom me to make me worthy, only you are truly worthy. Be good to me and cause me to do good. Help me to see my sin so I can allow you to take it and build in me your Truth. Allow the Joy you bring to me to flourish.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Selfless service.

“Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches.

Those who are victorious will sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat with my Father on his throne.

Lord God my Father,

Bring stillness to my spirit so I may hear you. Give me strength and courage to overcome my selfish way and serve you as you desire.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Well known

If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth. 9But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness. 10If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that his word has no place in our hearts.

But you have received the Holy Spirit, and he lives within you, so you don’t need anyone to teach you what is true. For the Spirit teaches you everything you need to know, and what he teaches is true—it is not a lie. So just as he has taught you, remain in fellowship with Christ.

All who believe in the Son of God know in their hearts that this testimony is true.

Dear children, keep away from anything that might take God’s place in your hearts.

Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. 24Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.

Lord God my Father,

Help me to see where I am lost, guide me back to your design, allow your spirit to rest well with me and restore your plan on my heart. Help me to believe without doubt, keep me from trying to understand what I am not ready to. Test me and help me to grow, help me to stay on your path.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
