I am the resurrection and the life

Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe in this?" John 11:25-26 Thank you Jesus, for your amazing love and great sacrifice on the cross for me, a sinner. Thank you for the hope you have given us for eternal life at your side and for the promises of the blessed and  abundant life that you have offered us, if we only believe. Wash away my sins, O Lord, take my heart and purify it, bring me close to you and never let me go, I pray. Amen

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.  For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. John 3:16-17 Thank you merciful Father in heaven for loving us so much that you sent your Son to this world that we may not perish, but have eternal life in your kingdom. Give me boldness to spread the good news to others, O God, that they too will come to know your loving Son and be saved and filled with your love, joy, peace and hope, in the precious name of my Savior' Jesus I pray. Amen

Nothing will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38 Merciful Lord, I thank you for your never ending and amazing love, I thank you for the hope and love you have given us in your Son, Jesus. May I treasure and reflect on your everlasting love and remember that nothing I have ever done, or will do, will ever separate me from your love. Live in me, O God, fill me with your loving kindness and help me be a reflection of your amazing love, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

The Lord takes pleasure in those who fear Him

He does not delight in the strength of the horse; He takes no pleasure in the legs of a man. The Lord takes pleasure in those who fear Him, In those who hope in His mercy. Psalm 147:10-11 Almighty Father in heaven, thank you for your mercy and hope, for reminding me not to put my trust in anything on earth, but to trust and hope only in you, my Rock, my Savior and Redeemer. Give me the desire for righteousness, O God, that I may do what pleases you and brings honor and glory to your Holy Name, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

My times are in Your hand

But as for me, I trust in You, O Lord; I say, “You are my God.” My times are in Your hand. Psalm 31:14-15 Blessed Lord in heaven, you have shown me your marvelous kindness and everlasting love, you are my God and I'm thankful to be your child. I know that I am in your hands, that my future is in your hands and you always know what is best for me. Surround me with your mercy, O God, strengthen my faith and help me trust in you and your plans for me, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

I lift up my soul to You

Cause me to hear Your loving kindness in the morning, for in You do I trust; cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to You. Psalm 143:8 Father in heaven, thank you for your loving kindness each morning, thank you for being my fortress, my refuge and my strength. Let me hear your loving voice as I begin my day, O Lord, guide my steps and everything I do as I lift up my soul to you and put all my trust in your blessed and Holy hands, I pray in Jesus' precious name. Amen

Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God

So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17 Almighty and merciful God in heaven, thank you for your Word, thank you for your promises, I know that every good thing, every blessing I have received has come from you. Strengthen my faith, O God, give me hunger for your Word and fill me with your Holy Spirit that I may have understanding and fill my heart with your love and joy, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen
