El Elyon, God Most High, I start this day giving You thanks, honour, glory and praise. I ask You for the forgiveness of all my sins of thoughts, words and deeds. I step into this day fresh; brand new; exhilarated; and ready to do Your Will.
Today, I acknowledge You as The Living God and Word by which I stand. I thank You for the life You have given me, without it being offered and without Your calling I would be dead; physically and spiritually. I give You glory, honour and praise because You are worthy of it and so much more. Teach me to live the life worthy of the calling I have received; not just as a Sunday occurrence but one for every day of the week. This morning I offer up my mind, heart and spirit to You, as I carry out each task that requires my thoughts, words and deeds, realising where my help comes from. I thank You that everything before me this day, has been approved by You first; it is seasoned with Your glory. I have decided to live a life, which I hope will be pleasing to You. All I do is by Your strength; without You I am nothing, my existence is of no value. Help me to be reassured of my appearing with You in glory. My Father and my God, I trust in You. It is well.
Put On the New Self
1 Therefore if you have been raised with Christ [to a new life, sharing in His resurrection from the dead], keep seeking the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.
2 Set your mind and keep focused habitually on the things above [the heavenly things], not on things that are on the earth [which have only temporal value].
3 For you died [to this world], and your [new, real] life is hidden with Christ in God.
4 When Christ, who is our life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.
Colossians 3:1-4 (AMP)
20 Now may the Elohim of peace [Who is the Author and the Giver of peace], Who brought again from among the dead our Lord Yeshua, that great Shepherd of the sheep, by the blood [that sealed, ratified] the everlasting agreement (covenant, testament),
21 Strengthen (complete, perfect) and make you what you ought to be and equip you with everything good that you may carry out His will; [while He Himself] works in you and accomplishes that which is pleasing in His sight, through Yeshua HaMashiach (the Messiah); to Whom be the glory forever and ever (to the ages of the ages).
Amen (So be it)
Hebrews 13:20-21 (AMPC)
