HEAVENLY FATHER, we come before you today thanking you for the grace we have in Christ Jesus. Father we confess that our eyes have been closed to this grace and we have not seen it clearly.

We confess that we are more familiar with things (be it natural or spiritual) than we are with the Life of Christ. Heavenly Father it seems as though we are rather distant from Christ, while at the same time things seem to be more real to us.

Father we truly ask you to help us to see. We pray that Christ becomes real to us. Let things pass away, and let the Life of Christ fill us.

Father we ask that you deliver us from the objects that can control so that we may know the Lord who is a person. Father, help us realize the Life of Christ so that everything in us will be living and full of life, so that people will see Christ when they see these things.

Father, cause us to understand how totally different are these two ways. How different is the way of sinners from the way of the righteous, and in a like manner how different the way of a true Christian from a false one.

Father we truly need to see that we have been crucified with Christ. Do not allow us to deceive ourselves considering ourselves having seen though we see nothing, as having touched the way of Christ when we are far from it, as being full of life whereas we are full of things.

Father, we want you to established yourself firmly in us that from our inside to our outside it may be Christ and Christ alone. Father, bless these words that we may bare fruit in bringing people back to You. Father, cover our human weakness and forgive our foolishness.

Father let it be that you receive the glory that is due you. May this be the day of exposure to many people, that we may see ourselves as you see us. May the light of your presence show us our falsehood and distinguish yourself from all substitutes.

Father, be glorified in each one of us in Jesus’ name. Amen!

Heavenly Father, we profess this day to you that we have come into the inheritance, which you have sworn to give us. We are in the land, which you have provided for us in Jesus Christ. We were sinners serving Satan, he was our god, but we called upon the name of Jesus and you heard our cry. You delivered us from the power and authority of darkness and translated us into the Kingdom of Your dear Son. Jesus, as our Lord and High Priest, we bring to you our tithes, offering, and the first fruits of our income that you may worship our Heavenly Father with them. Father, we rejoice in all the good you have given to us and our household. We have heard your voice and have done all that you have commanded us. Now Father, as you look down from your holy habitation in Heaven, to bless us as you said in Your Word, we believe that we now receive those blessings according to Your Word. This Is Our Confession Of Faith In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
