Maintain justice and do what is right

“Maintain justice and do what is right, for my salvation is close at hand and my righteousness will soon be revealed. Isaiah 56:1 Sovereign Lord in heaven, blessed be your name in all of the earth, thank you for the gift of salvation and your abundant love. Help me trust in your goodness, righteousness, and power and live to honor and please you, O God, help me do what is right in your eyes, not the world's, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

The word of the Lord remains forever

“All flesh is like grass  and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls, but the word of the Lord remains forever.” And this word is the good news that was preached to you. 1 Peter 1:22-25 Thank you merciful God, for reminding me that your Word, your promises and love will stand forever and everything else in this world will wither and die. Help me live for you, O Lord, help me share your word with others that they too may have joy, peace and love in their hearts, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time

Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart. At that time each will receive their praise from God. 1 Corinthians 4:4-5 Father God, Creator of the universe, thank you for reminding me that you are the only one who should judge and I am so grateful that you are a merciful judge. May the motives of my heart be pure and right before your eyes, O Lord, may I bring you honor in all I do and receive your blessings, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Put on the new self, created after the likeness of God

Put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.   Ephesians 4:22-24 Merciful Lord in heaven, thank you for the gift of salvation, for the hope and joy you have put in my heart. Help me put off my old self, O God, put your desires in my heart and renew my mind and spirit that I may walk in righteousness and holiness before you, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

We wait in hope for the LORD

We wait in hope for the LORD; he is our help and our shield. In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name. May your unfailing love be with us, LORD, even as we put our hope in you   Psalm 33: 20-22 Sovereign Lord, you are the beginning and the end, you are my help and my shield and my hope is in you. May you walk beside me and guide me, O God, and may your unfailing love be with me always as I wait in hope for you, I pray in Jesus name. Amen

Love one another deeply, from the heart

Love one another deeply, from the heart. For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God. 1 Peter 1:22-23 Father God, help us love each other with the same, deep love you have for us, help us be obedient children, holy and righteous in your eyes. Keep reminding us that we have been born again, O Lord, that we are a new creation and we should glorify you in all we do. May your enduring word live within our hearts and minster to us daily as we walk in obedience and in love, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

I delight greatly in the Lord

I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness.  Isaiah 61:10 My soul rejoices in you, O Sovereign Lord, I thank you for the greatest gift of all, your Salvation through your Son, Jesus, my Savior. May my words be worship and my actions bring glory and praise to your name, I pray in Jesus' name.Amen
