Heavenly Father I praise You for having a job, a family, a church, and many other things I am involved in. I praise You for creating me with a purpose and having Your Holy Spirit dwell within me as He once did in the temple in Jerusalem. This allows me to gain wisdom, have access to Your throne room, and the ability to learn what is expected of me every day as I travel through life.
Your word reassures me in this when it says: Therefore, I will be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that my labor is not in vain in the Lord. For I know that I am the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in me. I also know that if anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which I am a temple for God. I know that I can come boldly to the throne of grace, that I may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. If lack wisdom, I should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to me. I will try not to be deceived. For every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. Of His own will, He brought me and everyone else forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of first fruits of His creatures. Jesus, You told us while here on the earth, “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to my Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it. [1Corinthians 15:58; 1Corinthians 3:16&17; Hebrews 4:16; James 1:5; James 1:16-18; John 14:12-14]
Let me live a life that is full of the wisdom of doing Your will, living as sacrifice with a renewed mind, seeking Your Spirit and guidance, willing to petition at Your throne for others and healings and needs, always seeking to grow in understanding and discernment trying to build Your kingdom and accomplish more as I have lived here longer now than the years of Your ministry. I will remember to seek You, ask You for what is needed, but always humble myself to Your will no matter what it is I seek.
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
