Sacrifices of Praise!

Grace, Peace, Mercy, Love, and Power (2 Peter 1:2; 2 John 1:3; 2 Timothy 1:2).  I greet you in the mighty, awesome, audacious and glorious name of Jesus, for there is no other name under heaven, given among men, whereby we shall be saved (Acts 4:12). Who for the road that was set before Him, despised the shame, enduring the cross on our behalf and now sits at the right hand of the Father making intercession for us (Mark 16:19). 

He was wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon Him and by His stripes we are healed (Isaiah 53:5).  Jesus, we praise you that you first loved us, and not that we loved you (1 John 4:19).  Make us what you would have us to be.  Make us to do what you would have us to do. Work in us, on us, and through us.  All things are thine. It is in you that we live move and have our being (Acts 17:28).  We are nothing of ourselves and can do nothing of ourselves, but we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us (Philippians 4:13).  Make us to walk worthy of our calling in Christ Jesus (Ephesians 4:1-3). Let us not look to the right or to the left but look to you (Proverbs 4:27; Joshua 1:7; Deuteronomy 28:14). Our help comes from God, who made heaven and earth--who put the stars in the sky, and makes the sun to shine (Psalm 121:2) and the moon to light up the heavens.  We love you Lord!  We praise you Jesus!  Let us not trust in the arm of flesh, but to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness (Jeremiah 17:5; Matthew 6:33).

You are the author and the finisher of our faith (Hebrews 12:2) and we thank you.  In the name of Jesus we pray.  Amen

Exercise your authority to tread on serpents and to cast out demons. You are the head and not the tail. Greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. Exercise your holy boldness.
