1 Peter 1:17

And if you call on the Father, who without partiality judges according to each one's work, conduct yourselves throughout the time of your stay here in fear;

I thank You Lord for redeeming me by Your precious blood. You Lord Jesus are the spotless Lamb without blemish, none can take Your place. Try though we may to use corruptible things, like gold and silver or aimless conduct we have received by tradition to cleanse ourselves of unrighteousness it is in the turning and receiving by faith Your mercy and grace we are brought into new life. Therefore, may we this day gird up the loins of our mind, be sober and rest our hope fully upon Your grace. May we be as obedient children, not conforming ourselves to our former lust as in our ignorance. May the use of various vices we use to self soothe, comfort or avoid painful situations or heartache be put away forever. May we not be ignorant of the schemes of the enemy who desire to trip us up and keep us from victory in You. May our heart desire to be holy as You are holy be fulfilled by Your Holy Spirit as we surrender all. May we bow in humble adoration and separate ourselves from sin to live a life that glorifies You. May thanksgiving and praise to You our great God and King be the remedy for what ails us. Jesus be lifted high and magnified in and through us. May Your church arise. Amen.
