A New Heart!

A New Heart! I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. (Ezekiel 36:26) Father, we thank you for this precious blessing of the new covenant. You have made all things new and the old has passed away. We were a stiff necked people without God or hope of anything good in life. Yet, thou because of.your great mercies have done a mighty work. Our arms were too short to reach you, yet you because of the great love you had for us reached out to us. While we were yet sinners, you sent your Son to die as a sacrifice for our sins. You sent your Holy Spirit to revive our hearts and set them ablaze for your glory. We were hardened in our sins, yet you removed our heart of stone and gave us a heart of flesh - a heart that will be sensitive to your leading, a heart that will hate sin and love God will all it's strength, a heart where the Spirit of God will dwell and not be grieved by our neglect. So, keep this heart we pray in your ways O Lord. May it never depart from you or your blessed Word. Lord, we will hide your Word in this heart that we may not sin against ghee. By your grace, we will keep this heart with all diligence since out of it shall flow the issues of life. Lord, keep this heart undivided for your fame and for your glory. Let not the world, the flesh or the devil find any room or any open door within it. Let it burn with the fire of your holiness every single day of our life. You Lord who have begun a good work in this heart, will keep it and bring it to a glorious conclusion till we meet you face to face in glory - In the matchless name of your Son Jesus we pray. Amen!!

The Lord, our All in All!

Father God, we thank you for every blessing you have bestowed upon us through the new covenant in Christ Jesus. You have been our good shepherd always leading us to green pastures and still waters where you have restored our souls from the tumult and toil of this present world. We are too weak to grab hold of your hand and walk with you, our strength is lost in the fury of temptation and the pressures of this life. But O gracious Lord, in our weakness you be our strength, when we walk through the valley of darkness, you be our light, when we go through the desert, you meet us with streams of living water, when in chaos and confusion, you be our peace and when we lose earthly wealth, you be our all sufficiency. You be are all in all. We seek you not only for our temporal needs to be met, but we seek you as the all satisfying river of joy and peace. We seek you Lord that we have more of your Spirit, we seek you Lord to be changed from image to image and glory to glory of your Son Jesus Christ, we seek you with the joyful hope that One day we will see you face to face and we will be in your likeness and enjoy your presence in Heaven for all eternity forever and ever Amen!
