PRAYER:
“Dear Jesus, thank you for your gentleness, your grace, and your love for me. Today I desire to know You personally as my Lord and Savior. I acknowledge how my sins have brought resistance and separation between myself and God. I acknowledge how it is of God’s great love that You entered into this world to take up my sins to the cross. Forgive me and make me whole with Your living water of the Holy Spirit within me. In Your Name, Amen.”

Hebrews 13:20-21 – “Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant, equip you with everything good that you may do his will, working in us that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.”

God bless!
