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
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
“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
Peace be with you.
Lord God my Father,
Allow me to be still and enable your Peace to rest well with me.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
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
“Mary!” Jesus said. She turned to him and cried out, “Rabboni!”
“Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I am sending you.”
“You believe because you have seen me. Blessed are those who believe without seeing me.”
“Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter was hurt that Jesus asked the question a third time. He said, “Lord, you know everything. You know that I love you.”
Jesus replied, “If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you? As for you, follow me.”
Though I am surrounded by troubles, you will protect me from the anger of my enemies.
Lord God my Father,
Help me to be still so I may know you. Guide me with your Peace and cause me to believe without question. Help me to take your will as you desire me to and protect me as I serve you.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
“I did not lose a single one of those you have given me.”
“You say I am a king. Actually, I was born and came into the world to testify to the truth. All who love the truth recognize that what I say is true.”
“We have no king but Caesar,” the leading priests shouted back.
Lord God my Father,
You know me and keep me near. Give me the courage and strength to live delightfully, trusting you in all situations today. Keep me from choosing grumpy when you designed me to worship. Keep my eyes on your obvious Truth.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted!
I have told you these things so that you will be filled with my joy. Yes, your joy will overflow!
“But I will send you the Advocate —the Spirit of truth. He will come to you from the Father and will testify all about me.
The world’s sin is that it refuses to believe in me. 10Righteousness is available because I go to the Father, and you will see me no more. 11Judgment will come because the ruler of this world has already been judged.
Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”
Make them holy by your truth; teach them your word, which is truth.
I have revealed you to them, and I will continue to do so. Then your love for me will be in them, and I will be in them.”
His faithful love endures forever.
Lord God my Father,
Allow me to receive your Truth to guide me and give me single focus that cannot be moved from your Truth. Allow your Spirit to be my only guide and protect my thoughts from wondering off. Give me strength to endure the attacks and keep me from acting on my own but have me to allow you to have your way in my actions. You are the Peace, Truth and Joy that I wish to carry well. Your Love is all I will ever need.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
When Judas had eaten the bread, Satan entered into him.
Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied.”
9Jesus replied, “Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and yet you still don’t know who I am?
And because they love me, my Father will love them. And I will love them and reveal myself to each of them.”
Lord God my Father,
Keep me near and protect me from sin and temptation. Help me to know you!
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
Do you believe this, Martha?” 27“Yes, Lord,” she told him. “I have always believed you are the Messiah,
“Father, thank you for hearing me. 42You always hear me,
Lord God my Father,
Help me to really believe without doubt. Thank you for always being there for me.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
