Our Father, which are in heaven, You are worthy of our praise. Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord from the heavens; Praise in the heights! Praise Him all His Angels; Praise Him, all His hosts! Let us praise the name of the Lord. For His name alone is exalted; His glory is above the earth and heaven. [Psalms 148:1&2; Psalms 148:13]
“I will praise you, O Lord. Although you were angry with me, your anger has turned away and you have comforted me. Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord, is my strength and my song; He has become my salvation.” With joy, I will draw water from the wells of salvation. In that day I will say: “Give thanks to the Lord, call on His name; make known among the nations what He has done, and proclaim that His name is exalted. I will sing to the Lord, for He has done glorious things; let this be known to all the world.” O Lord, You are my God; I will exalt You and praise Your name, for in perfect faithfulness You have done marvelous things, things planned long ago. [Isaiah 12:1-5; Isaiah 25:1] The
Holy Spirit constantly reminds me that I walk in the spirit because I have salvation from God through Jesus Christ and solidified in my heart by the sanctification of Your Spirit. Let me rejoice and always give praise for the marvelous things You have done, especially in my life. I am continually in awe that You would care enough about me to send Jesus to live among men, suffer, die on the cross, and then rise again. I continually look for the day when either You come back, or I breathe my last on this earth.
Grace and peace will be multiplied to me through the knowledge of God and Jesus our Lord. His divine power has given to me all things that pertain to life and godliness through the knowledge of God who has called me to His glory and excellence, by which He has given to me exceedingly great and precious promises so that through these things I might become a partaker of the divine nature and escape the corruption that is in the world through lust. For this reason, help me to make every effort to add virtue to my faith; and to my virtue, knowledge, and to my knowledge, self-control; and to my self-control, patient endurance; and to my patient endurance, godliness; and to my godliness, brotherly kindness; and to my brotherly kindness love. For if all of these reside in me and abound, they will ensure that I will neither be useless nor unfruitful in the knowledge of Jesus Christ my Lord. Help me to diligently make my calling and election sure so that when I add all these areas into my life I will not stumble and will be able to enter into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ which will be abundantly provided for me. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 2 Peter 1:3-11 MEV version
