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 Savior, my Lord, 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 of 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 Savior, my Lord, and the very source of my life.

 

In the name of Jesus, Amen.

No One Like The Sovereign LORD!

 

 

“How great you are, O Sovereign LORD! There is no one like you. We have never even heard of another God like you!”

 

—2 Samuel 7:22 (NLT)

 

 

 

 

 

O Sovereign LORD,

 

Let all that I am boldly and freely declare—to anyone who will hear—how uniquely great and marvelously wonderful You are!

 

There is no god that surpasses Your greatness, for it is from You alone that greatness flows!  Anything or anyone that is made great is made so by Your divine design, according to Your divine purposes, and ultimately for Your highest glory, honor, and praise!

 

There is no other god that is Sovereign, but You!  For it is You who created all things and holds all power and authority in Your hand—assigning that power and authority to those You choose!

 

There is no other god that is like You—alive and living within those who believe!  For You didn’t wait for me to love You and desire a relationship with You, but rather You loved me first—when I was bound in filthy sin—and called me to Yourself and made my heart Your home, forever!

 

Why would I follow after some other god—when I have never even heard of another God like You?  None better, none greater, none higher, none like You!

 

Let all that I am boldly and freely declare—to anyone who will hear—how uniquely great and marvelously wonderful You are!

 

In the name of Jesus, Amen.

How Amazing!

 

 

How amazing are the deeds of the LORD!
    All who delight in him should ponder them.
Everything he does reveals his glory and majesty.
    His righteousness never fails.

 

—Psalm 111:2-3 (NLT)

 

Heavenly Father,

 

Oh, that I would faithfully delight in You—pondering Your amazing deeds, reflecting on Your glory and majesty, and marveling at Your unfailing righteousness—so that every aspect of my life would remain centered on You!

 

Help me to rekindle that awestruck wonder that I first had for the truly amazing and awesome things that You have done—both for me and for others—out of Your great love for all of us.

 

Help me to look for the amazing in the common place occurrences of my day and give You all the honor, glory and praise that You deserve—for all the things You have done, are doing now, and have yet to bring to pass.

 

Don’t let my familiarity with the story of my own life dull my sense of gratitude for how You have always been faithful to reveal Yourself to me—allowing me to experience for myself the truth of Your never-failing righteousness.

 

With great joy and excitement, help me look for opportunities to tell the story of Your goodness and Your faithfulness to me—so that others would come to believe how truly great You are, and be drawn to receive Christ for themselves!

 

Oh, that I would faithfully delight in You—pondering Your amazing deeds, reflecting on Your glory and majesty, and marveling at Your unfailing righteousness—so that every aspect of my life would remain centered on You!

 

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
