I am the first and I am the last; apart from me there is no God.

I will give you hidden treasures, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who summons you by name.

It is I who made the earth and created mankind on it. My own hands stretched out the heavens; I marshaled their starry hosts.

“There is no peace,” says the Lord, “for the wicked.”

Lord God my Father,

You are the maker of all and the only one. Help me to find your way within me and give me discernment over the darkness I have found so I may release it and be made whole in you. Help me to allow your Peace to be my only strength in this day.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
