"And he that sat upon the throne said,

‘Behold, I make all things new.’

And he said unto me,

Write: for these words are true and faithful’

And he said unto me,

‘It is done.

I am Alpha and Omega,

the beginning and the end.

I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

He that overcometh shall inherit all things;

and I will be his God,

and he shall be my son / she shall be my daughter.

But the fearful,

and unbelieving,

and the abominable,

and murderers,

and whoremongers,

and sorcerers,

and idolaters,

and all liars,

shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone:

which is the second death.’ "

Revelation 21:5-8

Pray: Father, I worship you and thank you for giving unto me another New Year. Because of your mercy and love, and because you are faithful and true, I know you have made all things new in my life. All through the great price that Jesus paid to redeem me from my sins at Calvary. I have full confidence that you have redeemed me from the second death - eternity in the lake of fire. I praise your holy Name.

Father, today I need your favor in the following areas of my life, in Jesus’ Name. (tell your Father what your concerns are)

"God is not a man,

that he should lie;

neither the son of man,

that he should repent:

hath he said,

and shall he not do it?

or hath he spoken,

and shall he not make it good?

Every good gift

and

every perfect gift

is

from above,

and

cometh down from the Father of lights,

with whom is

no variableness,

neither shadow of turning."

Numbers 23:19James 1:17

Pray: I thank you Father that you are not a man that you should lie. You are the same yesterday, today and forever. I can and will place my complete trust in you. You will bring to pass every good thing, every perfecting gift, and every life giving word that you have spoken. You will bring to pass all you have spoken concerning my life and the lives of those of my house.

"Therefore

if any man be in Christ,

he is a new creature:

old things are passed away;

behold,

all things are become new.

And all things are of God,

who hath reconciled us to himself

by Jesus Christ,

and hath given to us

the ministry of reconciliation;

To wit, that God was in Christ,

reconciling the world unto himself,

not imputing their trespasses unto them;

and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation."

2 Corinthians 5:17-19

Pray: Father, I thank you that you have made it possible for me to begin a new life through my faith in your Son, Jesus Christ. The old me is gone.

"(We are) buried with him (Jesus) in baptism,

wherein also ye are risen with him

through the faith of the operation of God,

who hath raised him from the dead.

If ye then be risen with Christ,

seek those things which are above,

where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

Set your affection on things above,

not on things on the earth.

For ye are dead,

and your life is hid

with Christ in God.

When Christ,

who is our life,

shall appear,

then shall ye also appear with him in glory."

Colossians 2:12, 3:1-4

Pray: I thank you Father that my old life of sin and shame was nailed with Jesus to His cross. My new life of victory is found hidden in God with the victorious, risen Christ. I will set my affection upon your Word and your instruction, and not waste it on the vain things of the world which will soon pass away.

"And you hath he (God) quickened,

who were dead in trespasses and sins;

Wherein in time past

ye walked according to the course of this world,

according

to the prince of the power of the air,

the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

But God,

who is rich in mercy,

for his great love wherewith he loved us,

Even when we were dead in sins,

hath quickened us together with Christ

For we are His workmanship,

created in Christ Jesus for good works,

which God prepared beforehand

that we should walk in them."

Ephesians 2:1-2, 4-5, 10

Pray: Father, when I was dead in my sins, walking in the lusts of this world and following after its false doctrines and lifestyles, you had great mercy on me and loved me. You made it possible for me to have eternal life when You raised Christ from the dead. I thank you for your saving grace toward me and my house.

"Thus saith

the LORD

the maker thereof,

the LORD

that formed it,

to establish it;

the LORD

is his name;

Call unto me,

and I will answer thee,

and shew thee great and mighty things,

which thou knowest not.

And call upon me in the day of trouble:

I will deliver thee,

and thou shalt glorify me."

Jeremiah 33:2-3Psalm 50:15

Pray: Father, I thank you that you love me so much that you desire to have intimate communion with me. You desire to deliver me in my times of trouble.

"And we know

that all things work together for good

to them

that love God,

to them

who are the called

according to his purpose.

According as he hath chosen us in him

before the foundation of the world,

that we should be

holy

and

without blame

before him in love:"

Romans 8:28Ephesians 1:4

Pray: I thank you Father for the eternally priceless privilege of being led according to your loving plans and purposes for my life. You knew me and planned my life before the foundation of the world. Planned that I would be found holy through your righteousness imparted by my faith in Christ Jesus. Planned that I would be without any blame when I stand before Christ on my day of judgement.

"But what things were gain to me,

those I counted loss for Christ.

for the excellency

of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord:

for whom

I have suffered the loss of all things,

and do count them

but dung,

that I may win Christ,

And be found in him,

not having mine own righteousness,

which is of the law,

but that which is through the faith of Christ,

the righteousness

which is of God by faith:"

Philippians 3:7-9

Pray: Father, I realize that the world and all it offers will pass away. This fallen world has nothing of any lasting value for me. I join the apostle in declaring that all that the world offers is dung compared to the knowledge of Christ. All that religion offers is dung compared to the knowledge of Christ. All that I desire is found in Christ. Only in Christ can I receive the righteousness of God by faith.

"For thou art great,

and doest

wondrous things:

thou art God alone.

Teach me thy way,

O LORD;

I will walk in thy truth:

unite my heart to fear thy name.

I will praise thee,

O Lord my God,

with all my heart:

and I will glorify thy name for evermore.

For great is thy mercy

toward me:

and thou hast delivered my soul

from the lowest hell."

Psalm 86:10-13

Pray: LORD, I will set my course to walk entirely in your truth for my life. Teach me of your righteousness. Heal my heart with your love so that I might have a holy reverence for you. Great has been your mercy to me. I will praise your Name forevermore.

"When the men were come unto him (Jesus), they said,

‘John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying,

Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?’

And in that same hour

he cured many

of their infirmities

and plagues,

and of evil spirits;

and unto many that were blind

he gave sight.

Then Jesus answering said unto them,

‘Go your way,

and tell John

what things ye have seen and heard

how that the blind see,

the lame walk,

the lepers are cleansed,

the deaf hear,

the dead are raised,

to the poor the gospel is preached.’ "

Luke 7:20-22

Pray: I will obey your command Lord to go my way - my life - my destiny, and tell many of how you have demonstrated your wonderful love for me by delivering me from sin and death. I will tell them the specific acts of mercy and love you have performed on my behalf, and for those of my house.

"Therefore take no thought,

saying,

What shall we eat?

or,

What shall we drink?

or,

Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:)

for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

But seek first

the kingdom of God and His righteousness,

and

all these things shall be added to you."

Matthew 6:31-33

Pray: LORD, I will not spend an undue amout of time and energy or stress over how I will aquire the necessities of life. My Father knows the things that I need to live. Instead, I will purpose in my heart to seek you and your kingdom first and foremost, above all else. You alone have the words of life. All of my provision and blessings come from you.

"But in a great house

there are not only vessels of

gold

and silver,

but also

of wood

and clay,

some for honor

and some for dishonor.

If a man therefore purge himself from these,

he shall be a vessel unto honour,

sanctified for the master’s use,

and prepared unto every good work."

who were dead in trespasses and sins;

Wherein in time past

ye walked according to the course of this world,

for his great love wherewith he loved us,

Even when we were dead in sins,

ye shall ask in my name:

and I say not unto you,

that I will pray the Father for you:

For the Father himself loveth you,

because ye have loved me (Jesus),

"Ye are all the children of light,

and the children of the day:

we are not of the night,

nor of darkness.

Therefore let us not sleep,

as do others;

but let us watch and be sober.

They that sleep sleep in the night;

But let us,

who are of the day,

be sober,

putting on the breastplate of faith and love;

and for an helmet, the hope of salvation."

be followers together of me,

and mark them which walk so

as ye have us for an ensample.

he is able even to subdue all things unto himself."

that he (God) which hath begun a good work in you

will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

And this I pray,

that your love may abound yet more and more

in knowledge and
