God’s divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us to His own glory and excellence,by which He has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire.
—-2 Peter 1:3-4 (English Standard Version)
Dearest Abba, Father, You are from everlasting to everlasting. You are our Holy One. You are our Creator. Our King. You are Majestic in Your Holiness and Awesome in Glory. We all long to see You and hear from You. But most times we forget that only who is pure in heart can see You. It’s our lack of holiness that separates us from You. We easily get caught in the filthiness of this world and lose Your most precious presence from our lives grieving You. How insensitive and foolish of us to forgo of Your ever so beautiful love. When we abide in Your love and remain in Your Word all Your promises, which are more than sufficient to satisfy all our needs and lead a victorious life and resist all the devices of the enemy, gets fulfilled in our lives. Though our spirit is willing,many a time our flesh fails us. We can’t win against the passions of the flesh which war against our souls on our own.Only by Your Spirit we can win this battle.Father, You live inside of us and You are greater than the one who wars against us. Take us and make us like Your Holy Son.Yahweh, the most Holy One of Israel, You are the Potter and we are the clay. Mould us and finish the work You have begun in us not letting us being wasted. If You walk with us, we will never stray. Make us delight in Your law so that it is always a lamp unto my feet and light unto our path. Lead us in Your righteous path for Your mighty name’s sake. Through the grace of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
