Thank you so much for getting us through this week with flying colors!

Ready To Go
Father, help us to be ready to leave this earth every day. If we look in our hearts and see that, truth be told, we'd hate to die today, help us to take a hard look at our priorities. Help us to live each day to your fullest, knowing in our hearts that this world is not our home. Of course, if there are any of us that have never accepted Jesus as his or her personal savior, we ask that you would help those people to make that decision today so that they are guaranteed an eternity with you. Thank you for the gift of salvation, Father. Thank you for giving us a reason to live. We love you.Labels: Examining Our Hearts, life change, salvation

We Want To Glorify You, Jesus
Father, we offer ourselves up as living sacrifices to you. Just as Jesus willingly carried his cross to Calvary and allowed himself to be killed to pay the price for our sins, we take up our cross daily. We want to kill our flesh, and devote our lives to you. In every action, we want to glorify the name of Jesus. Thank you for giving us your holiness and righteousness. Help us to operate in the gifts of your Spirit. Help us to be humble and unashamed of who we are. We are Christians. We believe that Jesus is the Son of the one true God, and that Jesus died and rose from the grave, conquering sin and death. Hallelujah! You are so magnificent, Jesus! We love you!Labels: life change, salt of the earth - light of the world, salvation

We Claim The Victory In Jesus' Name
Jesus, thank you for paying the price for our sins and for conquering death. Your gift of salvation, the gift of life, is what gives our lives meaning.

We claim the victory, in Jesus' name! We no longer have to be enslaved by fear, temptation, and pride. We are your children, wielding your might! We wear your righteousness and power. Hallelujah!

God's Precious Children
Father, thank you for being our perfect, heavenly Father. Help us to remember that each and every person on this planet is precious to you. Make our hearts tender, and impress upon us the desire that you have to spend eternity with every person that we come in contact with. Give us the words to speak to them that would remind them of the emptiness that they feel without a relationship with you, Jesus. Give us the privilege of leading someone to Christ this month. We want the family of God to grow. Thank you, Father. We love you. Thank you for loving us as your children.Labels: children of God, family, Father God, salvation

Your Power At Work
Father, thank you for the work that you're doing in the lives of our loved ones. For the friends and family that have not come to know you yet, soften their hearts. Show them the emptiness of life without you. Show them the love that you have for them even now, before they have loved you in return.For our friends and family that already know you as their savior, we pray for a deeper relationship with you. Draw them closer than ever before. Let 2007 be a year of revelation for them, and let them never be the same, Lord. Mold them into warriors and servants for you. Thank you, Jesus. We love them so much. Take care of them.
Thank you, Father, for this day. It's one day closer to the day when we will meet you face to face. That thought makes us smile. We love you, Father.
