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.
—2 John 1:3 (NLT)
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for the promise that Your Word gives me—that grace, mercy and peace will continue to be with me, if I live in truth and love!
Thank You for revealing, to all those who choose to believe You, the absolute Truth and the unfailing Love found in Your written Word, and in Your Word made flesh—in the person of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior, who is Your greatest expression of love and of truth.
Save me from the lies of the enemy which would try to convince me that there is no absolute truth, that I can decided for myself what truth is, or that I can trust my feelings to show me what real love is. Help me always look to You to guide me into all Truth, that I may always live in the Love you intended for us all to experience.
And should I ever find my peace disrupted, Your mercy for me in question, or feel as though Your grace to me is running low, remind me to examine my heart to see if I have walked away from truth and love—and by Your Holy Spirit bring me back to Your Word, that I might repent and be restored.
Thank You for the promise that Your Word gives me—that grace, mercy and peace will continue to be with me, if I live in truth and love!
In the name of Jesus, Amen.
