To Continually and Forever Remain



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)


Gracious Father God,


Let me continually and forever remain in Jesus Christ—for He is my Lord, my Savior and the very source of my life.


Help me always to abide with Him—to inseparably link every aspect of my life to Him—and live in according to the Truth which He came to declare to us all, comforted by the knowledge that He will remain in me.

For it is only 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 me continually and forever remain in Jesus Christ—for He is my Lord, my Savior and the very source of my life.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
