What past? Only present.

In all of this, Job did not sin by blaming God. Job 1-22

He fears God and stays away from evil. And he has maintained his integrity, even though you urged me to harm him without cause.” Job 2-3

 Should we accept only good things from the hand of God and never anything bad? Job 2-10

Surely resentment destroys the fool,and jealousy kills the simple. Job 5-2

Lord God my Father,

Direct me to deal with the world your way not mine. Remove the power of temptation to influence me to my desire. I am sinful on my own. I accept the test but need your power to choose properly. Allow the past to stay there and not here.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Freedom in His bondage

I will never again curse the ground because of the human race, even though everything they think or imagine is bent toward evil from childhood.

Lord God my Father,

I am tired of my thoughts and actions, I am bent towards sin on my own, I wish to only carry your thoughts and actions. Grow your desire in me so strong that my sinful desire is lost.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Not my way

You will be accepted if you do what is right. But if you refuse to do what is right, then watch out! Sin is crouching at the door, eager to control you. But you must subdue it and be its master.”

Lord God my Father,

I want to only do what is right, I am tired of my way which is filled with sinful thoughts and actions. Allow me to rule over my will and replace it with yours.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Free from the past, peace in truth.

Now the man and his wife were both naked, but they felt no shame.

The serpent was the shrewdest of all the wild animals the Lord God had made

“You won’t die!” the serpent replied to the woman. 

And the LordGod made clothing from animal skins for Adam and his wife.

Lord God my Father,

I am a sinner and feel shame from my poor decisions. I ask for your forgiveness and you freely gave it not protect from the desire Satan has to keep me bound in shame. Protect me from the tempter and deliver me to your peace.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Why look at the darkness, Shine!

“Great and marvelous are your works,O Lord God, the Almighty.Just and true are your ways,O King of the nations. Who will not fear you, Lord,and glorify your name?For you alone are holy.All nations will come and worship before you,for your righteous deeds have been revealed.”

Lord God my Father,

Help me to live in your light and not look at the darkness that is all around me. You are in complete control, may that truth bring your peace in my life.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

He’s got it!

I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, “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. He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever.”

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.”

Lord God my Father,

Be with me till I come home, take my desire to be in control and place your peace on me that your plan is so much better than mine. May I live in your Truth.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

The focus of my worship

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.

Lord God my Father,

Take my stubborn ways and soften my heart to surrender all of my will to follow your desire for me. Take from me the desire to worship anything other than you and make the power you give me to turn my back on the worldly ways, come to the surface and protect me. May this day be only for your Glory.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

To live His purpose,

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

“But I also have a message for the rest of you in Thyatira who have not followed this false teaching (‘deeper truths,’ as they call them—depths of Satan, actually).

I correct and discipline everyone I love. So be diligent and turn from your indifference.

Lord God my Father,

Open my eyes and ears so I may see and hear you and protect me from the ways of the world. Make me a tool you can use to bring your Glory to those around me. Remove the bindings I have placed on myself that holds me back. Take my indifference so I may live your purpose.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Made strong by Truth

Grace, mercy, and peace, which come from God the Father and from Jesus Christ—the Son of the Father—will continue to be with us who live in truth and love.

Love means doing what God has commanded us, and he has commanded us to love one another, just as you heard from the beginning.

Lord God my Father,

Grant me a heart that is only sensitive to your truth, allow me to discern your truth in this sin filled world and live by your truth loving others as you designed.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Sold out to Truth

“You believe because you have seen me. Blessed are those who believe without seeing me.”

But those who obey God’s word truly show how completely they love him. That is how we know we are living in him. 6Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did.

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

Lord God my Father,

I believe because I know you, help me to know you more and finally obey completely. Help me to surrender anything in my life I worship above you.

In Jesus name,

Amen
