But Jesus said, "More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!"
Blessed are those who seek You Lord with their whole heart. You Lord are our Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel. The Lord our God who teaches us to profit and lead us the way we should go. I pray we heed Your commandments. May Your peace be like a river and Your righteousness like the waves of the sea, constant, powerful and producing luxuriant growth and increase. Father, I pray for Your church not to be smitten with traditional practices, the rituals that lead us away from or take the place of the authority of scripture. Your word is a lamp unto our feet and light to our path. I thank You for the promises of blessing that come to those who are concreted to Your word. Blessed are those who walk not in the council of the ungodly, not stand in the path of sinners or sit in the seat of the scornful. To delight in the law of the Lord meditating on it day and night. Make us Lord I pray like trees planted by rivers of water bringing forth fruit in season and out. May we never wither no matter the adversity we may face. Father grant that all we do prosper and be a blessing to offer back to You. Grant Your children wisdom and discernment for the days seem to get more and more evil. Father, I thank You for Your loving protection over Your sons and daughters all their days. Blessing them with all the good and perfect gifts from above. May praise and thanksgiving be a sweet-smelling aroma to You as it reaches the highest heavens. This season Lord may we honor You in words and deeds bringing light into the dark dreary world around us. May it be a Merry Christmas to all as Jesus is lifted high and exalted above everything. Amen.
Psalm 119:1, Isaiah 48 and Psalm 1
