Read and Consider: Genesis 1:26-27
Lord, I thank You for the breath of life You have given me. I pray You will breathe new life into me today. Just as You spoke and brought about life in this magnificent world, help me to speak words that bring life into my own small world as well. How grateful I am to be closely connected to You in every way. ~ Stormie Omartian, The Power of Praying Through The Bible

Prayer for Friends
I thank my God always for my friends -- for the grace of God which was given to you by Christ Jesus, that you might be enriched in everything by Him in all utterance and all knowledge, even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you, so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will confirm you to the end that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen
Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 1:4-9
The daily prayer is written by Germaine Copeland, author of the Prayers That Avail Much family book series.

I Believe (A Confession of Faith) Part 5
I believe in redemption:
In whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace. Ephesians 1:8 KJV
I believe Jesus is my redeemer and He has redeemed me through His shed blood. His redemption means that He has bought me at a great price, the highest price that could be paid for my ransom. I believe that His ransom means that I am no longer in bondage to Satan, stuck in a horrible pit of despair, or a slave to sin.
I believe that my redemption means that I am longer my own, and that my purpose is to serve Jesus and glorify Him, not unwillingly, but from the heart, as His bondservant. I count it a privilege to serve Him for love’s sake.
I believe His ownership of my life brings me great comfort, deep peace, and overflowing joy. His ownership means that I am in His hands, in His care, in His keeping. I believe as my redeemer that He has taken full responsibility for my life because He has purchased it and I have wholly given it into His hands. I believe the hands of my Redeemer are strong hands, creative hands, caring hands, giving hands, healing hands, keeping hands. I rejoice that my life is in His hands— to do His will, to follow His plans, to gladden His heart, to bless His name.
Lord Jesus,
You are my Redeemer!
I am redeemed!
I am redeemed through Your sacrificial blood!
I thank You for the forgiveness of sins. I am so thankful for the riches of Your grace.
I am no longer in bondage to satan, stuck in a horrible pit of despair or a slave to sin. Hallelujah!
Praise to You, I am no longer my own and my purpose is to serve You and glorify You from my heart. I count it a privilege to serve You for love's sake.
Thank You for the great comfort, deep peace and overflowing Joy You bring my life. I'm so grateful that I am in Your hands, in Your care, in Your keeping.
I rejoice that my life is in Your hands, strong hands, creative hands, capable hands, caring hands, giving hands, healing hands, keeping hands... to help me do Your will, follow Your plans and gladden Your heart as I bless Your Holy Name.
A REDEEMED DAUGHTER
