Fear God

Fear God

Father, teach me the fear of the Lord so that I may know Your covenant. The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom and knowledge that leads to a fountain of life, a strong confidence, and stability in hard times, and a wealth of salvation. A man who fears God holds nothing back from the Lord. A man who will not change does not fear God. So I work out my salvation with fear and trembling for God is a consuming fire perfecting me in holiness. I delight in the fear of God so as not to make rash judgments by the sight of my eyes or the hearing of my ears. I walk in the fear of God and the comfort of the Holy Spirit knowing You take no delight in my might, strength or my wisdom but only when I fear Your name. I conduct myself

Pure Thoughts

Pure Thoughts

Father, the natural mind is an enemy to You, so I put away reasoning and do not lean to my own understanding but in all my ways acknowledge You and You direct my steps. I have not been given a spirit of fear but a well disciplined mind. I have the mind of Christ to bring every thought captive to the obedience of Christ casting down every imagination that exalts itself above what You have said. I put on the helmet of salvation so that I can think on whatsoever is pure and true, honest, of good report, lovely, anything that has virtue and praise. I think on those things.

Simplicity

Simplicity

Father, I keep the simplicity of the gospel. Through the death of Jesus I am reconciled to You, my God, and through the resurrection of Jesus I am given new life to overcome all the works of the flesh, Satan and the world. I am in Christ, Christ is in God, and God is in me. I am saved by grace through faith. There is no other way. Apart from You I can do nothing. So I come to You with child like faith. I believe in my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus was raised from the dead so I have received eternal life. When I confess my sins You are faithful and just to forgive me and cleanse me of all unrighteousness.

Entering His Rest

Entering His Rest

Father, I labor to enter into the rest of Jesus. I check myself to be sure I am operating in the faith. It is not by my laboring to do well that I find eternal rest but by hearing the Word that was made flesh. It is not about what I can do for You that brings rest but what You finished for me at the cross. I was crucified with Jesus at the cross, dead to sin and raised with Jesus to eternal life made to be the righteousness of God. So I quiet my soul of all the talk between my emotions, thoughts and will so that I may hear Your voice and follow You to green pastures and still waters. Let Your will be done. Let Your ways become my ways so that I may stay in rest. How You deliver me is too wonderful for me to know so I humble myself
