2 Corinthians 3:9

For if the ministry of condemnation had glory, the ministry of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Holy Father of tender mercy and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in our tribulations, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort we ourselves are comforted by You. Father therefore since we have such hope may we use great boldness of speech to speak of the new covenant through Your Son Jesus Christ. May our words freely flow with frankness and courage as we reveal Your righteousness as is written in the holy scriptures. We all have sinned and have fallen short Father, but You have given forgiveness freely by Your grace through the redemption that is in Your beautiful Son Christ Jesus, who You sent forth by propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness. Father I pray for those who believe in the finished work of the cross to continue to walk by faith and not by sight. We Lord are not ashamed of the gospel for it is Your power to salvation for everyone who believes. Strengthen Your Children today to continue to be a blessing to the lost, hurting captives. Those who are living unclean lives following the lusts of their hearts, exchanging the truth of Your saving grace for the lie, and worshiping the creature rather than You our Creator. Father by the power of Your Spirit and the words of our testimony may many turn from sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness, envy, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness, violence, pride, unforgiving and the like which are things deserving of death. May we speak of Your goodness, forbearance, and long suffering that will lead those in sin to repentance. Thank You Lord that today is the day of salvation for many. In Your name Jesus I pray, Amen.

2 Corinthians 1:3-4, Romans 1:28-32 and 3:21-26
