Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me.—John 15:4 (NLT)
Heavenly Father,
Let my first priority always and forever be to remain in Christ—for He is the very source of my life.
Help me always to abide
with Him—to remain inseparably linked to Him in every area of my life—and never
deny Him or abandon the Truth which He came to declare to all of us.
For it is in Christ—through
my openness to receive the full measure of grace and truth that He pours out over
me—that I find everything that I need to accomplish every plan and purpose for
which He has uniquely crafted and equipped me.
And without Him I cannot
produce any good thing—I cannot fulfill Your will for me—and I cannot enjoy the
privilege of being used to be a part of the great things that You are doing in
the lives of those all around me.
So, help me to be fruitful—producing
good works which are a reflection Your amazing love, truth, and grace—so that
others might see Christ in me and give You the glory, honor, and praise that
You are due.
Let my first priority always and forever be to remain in Christ—for He is the very source of my life.
In the name of Jesus,
Amen.
