Quote: God's decree is the very pillar and basis on which the saint's perseverance depends. That decree ties the knot of adoption so fast, that neither sin, death, nor hell, can break it asunder. ~ Thomas Watson John 1:12-13 ESV But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. Prayer: Heavenly Father, Your decree is the foundation of my faith and perseverance. You have decreed. It stands fast and is eternal. Amen.

Quote: I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do. ~ Edward Everett Hale, author, (1822-1909) {submitted by Rev. Nancy} Galatians 6:9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. Prayer: O God, I may be powerless when I try to do everything. You only ask that I do something. Prompt me to do the things I am meant to do and help me to lay down that which I am not meant to do. Amen.

Quote: To place ourselves in range of God's choicest gifts, we have to walk with God, work with God, lean on God, cling to God, come to have the sense and feel of God, refer all things to God. ~ Cornelius Plantinga John 15:10-11 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. Prayer: Heavenly Father, My deepest desire is to walk with You, work with You, lean on You and to cling to You as I keep Your commandments. Amen.

Quote: If you are going through a solitary way, read John 17, it will explain exactly why you are where you are - Jesus has prayed that you may be one with the Father as He is. Are you helping God to answer that prayer, or have you some other end for your life? Since you became a disciple you cannot be as independent as you used to be. Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest John 17:2 "That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us." Prayer: O Lord, Once I became a believer, I can never again be alone for You are within me and I am a part of You. You are the vine and I am one of the branches continually deriving my sustenance from You. Thank you Jesus. Amen.

Quote: Many will charge that dragging up the past is fruitless and wastes time on things that are best forgotten...but emotional wounds are like physical ones: They do not heal if they are neglected; they only become infected and can become life damaging. The hurt must be brought into the light and treated. ~ Albert Haase Luke 4:18 He hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised. Prayer: Dear Father, Lead me to bring all my hurts to You that Your light shines brightly upon them, casting out all darkness. And once these things are healed, help me to put them behind me once and for all time. Amen.

Quote: Watch constantly against those things which are thought to be no temptations. The most poisonous serpents are found where the sweetest flowers grow. ~ C. H. Spurgeon Psalm 119:37 NIV Turn away my eyes from looking at worthless things, and revive me in Your way. Prayer: O God, Temptations appear sweet and pleasing yet they are like a serpent with a poisonous bite. Help me to stand guard against all temptations and to see them for what they really are. In the name of Jesus I pray. Amen.

Quote: The tools of recovery are no good sitting in the toolbox. Just like a lawn mower will not mow a lawn by itself, I have to get them out and use them every day. ~ mbw 1 Thessalonians 5:21-24 NKJV Test all things; hold fast what is good. Abstain from every form of evil. Prayer: Heavenly Father, You have blessed me with the tools of recovery. Prompt me to take them up and use them each day. Bring to mind those that I have left in the toolbox too long that I employ them anew. In the name of Jesus I pray. Amen.

Quote: Have we ever let God tell us any of His joys, or are we telling God our secrets so continually that we leave no room for Him to talk to us? At the beginning of our Christian life we are full of requests to God, then we find that God wants to get us into relationship with Himself, to get us in touch with His purposes. Are we so wedded to Jesus Christ's idea of prayer - "Thy will be done" - that we catch the secrets of God? ~ Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest Psalm 143:10 ESV Teach me to do your will, for you are my God! Let your good Spirit lead me on level ground! Prayer: Lord, Never allow me to be so caught up with my own requests during prayer, that I do not take time to listen intently for what You have to say. In the name of Jesus I pray. Amen.

Know ye not your own selves, now that Jesus Christ is in you.. Prayer: Heavenly Father, Help me to open the doors inside of me and outside of me. Lead me to explore and break the bonds of my prison. Amen.

Quote: Instead of being losers, we are inescapable winners. Ours is a faith for victory. Thus, if you are Christ's, stop talking about defeat. There is a world to be conquered, and we are the people called to do it. ~ R. J. Rushdoony {all of his writings may be found at: http://chalcedon.edu} 1 Corinthians 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our LORD Jesus Christ. Prayer: O God, Thank you for showing me that I am not a loser but rather a victor! With Jesus Christ I am a winner and an overcomer. Amen.
