Beloved of All
God Himself said, "And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. There is no name greater than Yours, Jesus, for the Word says about You, 'His name shall endure forever; His name shall continue as long as the sun. And men shall be blessed in Him; All nations shall call Him blessed.' As for me, I am a wicked man, so weak and so corrupt. You know what lies in my heart as Your Word says, 'For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within, and they defile a person.' I confess I lied to You many times, putting my family and myself at risk of Your judgment, and I ask because I cannot demand, show mercy on every sin I committed. I will turn with the help of the Holy Spirit. I will trust that You will forgive me and cleanse me, for Your Word says, 'If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.' So I believe You will forgive me from every oath. I'm done with that; it's disgusting. It takes away my strength every day, so I will lean on these verses, praying that You will grant these requests. The Lord God is our sun and our strength: the Lord will give grace and glory: he will not keep back any good thing from those whose ways are upright. And as a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear Him. For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust. And I am a wicked man, truly, in the back of my head, there is still fear. Please show mercy and keep us from sin, continue to watch over us, but, dear Lord, even if our health leaves, even if our money is gone, even if every fear and failure is reality, still I ask that we love You with all of our heart, mind, soul, and strength, that we love our neighbor as ourselves, that You be our joy and everything. I also ask that You protect us from every disease and injury possible because I have no power. I ask You forgive and protect completely for Your name's sake, in Jesus' powerful name. I ask. Amen. Thank you, thank you.
