From depths of woe I cry to Thee,
Lord hear me, I implore Thee.
Bend down Thy Gracious ear to me,
My prayer let come before Thee.
Lord, since Thy searching eye doth see
Our sin and our iniquity,
Lord, who can stand before Thee?

To gain remission of our sin,
Thy grace alone availeth;
Thy favor we may strive to win,
But all our labor faileth;
No man can glory in Thy sight,
All must alike confess Thy might,
And live alone by mercy.

Though great our sins and sore our woes
Your grace much more aboundeth;
Your helping love no limit knows,
Our utmost need it soundeth.
My Shepherd good He is indeed,
His own lost sheep to seek and lead
With tender love and pity.

My hope I rest then on the Lord,
And build not on my merit;
My heart shall trust His gracious Word
To stay my fainting spirit.
His Precious Word assureth me
He will my Joy and comfort be;
This is my firm reliance.

Most Gracious Abba Father, Today I want to lift up my voice and hands that are made clean by the washing of the pure water of Your Word and I want to Bless You Lord for Your beloved son Martin Luther who wrote this Hymn and whose life is an example unto us and especially unto me as one who feared You O God and not man and I love him Lord. O help me Abba Father to stand firm in Christ Jesus my Lord in Your truth and to remain faithful in suffering, in persecution, and in being as considerate of others, as my Great Shepherd Lord Jesus Christ was and keep me from evil. O God help me to avoid evil and live blamelessly for it is in Christ that I have been circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, buried with Him in baptism, in which I have been raised with Him through faith and that I am working out my own salvation with fear and trembling for it is You O God working in me, You O God who raised Christ Jesus from the dead and it is You O God, my Abba Father which worketh in me both to will and to do of Your good pleasure. Thank You Lord Jesus for salvation. Thank You for going to the cross to save me from a lost eternity and for seating me in the heavenlies and for Your Word which enables me to look in it, like a mirror, and there I can behold You Lord Jesus in Your Glory as You come alive on every page and today that is my deepest desire to learn more and more about You that I might show myself a faithful steward and a good student of Your Word to bring Glory and Praise to You Father God who has called me out of darkness and into Your marvelous Light. Lord Jesus You are the Light of this world and You are the Word of God that became flesh and You dwelt here among us on this earth and You were entirely faithful to Your calling for the joy that was set before You and You despised the shame of the cross and You endured the greatest suffering ever known to man and therefore completed Your work and perfected salvation for us who believe on Your Name and I Praise You O God that right now Christ is seated in Glory at Your Right Hand where He is making intercession for all Your Called out body of believers in this world till all our enemies are made Your footstool.  I love You Lord Jesus and I Praise God for giving You to us as the sacrifice, His Own Spotless Lamb, for all my sin, and the sin of the world, in order that by faith in Your death, Your Precious Blood that was poured out for many, all who trust in You Lord Jesus, can be born-from-above and accepted in You for You Lord Jesus are the Beloved only begotten Son of God our Father 

In the Beloved" accepted am I,
Risen, ascended, and seated on high;
Saved from all sin thro' His infinite grace,
With the redeemed ones accorded a place.

Refrain:
"In the Beloved," God's marvelous grace
Calls me to dwell in this wonderful place;
God sees my Saviour and then He sees me
"In the Beloved," accepted and free.

"In the Beloved"— how safe my retreat,
In the Beloved accounted complete;
"Who can condemn me?" In Him I am free,
Saviour and Keeper forever is He.

"In the Beloved" I went to the tree,
There, in His Person, by faith I may see
Infinite wrath rolling over His head,
Infinite grace, for He died in my stead.

Thanks and Praise to You Lord Jesus for these wonderful Words by: Civilla D. Martin, 1869-1948.

Psalm 121.

"I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: He that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: He shall preserve thy soul. The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore."

Now unto You Abba Father God Who alone is able to keep me from falling, and to present me faultless before the Presence of Your Glory with exceeding Joy, To the only wise God my Saviour, Lord Jesus Christ, who is very God of very God, be Glory and Majesty, Dominion and Power, both now and ever for He alone is able to keep me in this world for He is the keeper of Israel and the keeper of His own called out body of believers.

Hallelujah!

Amen!

Most Gracious, Ever Merciful, All Powerful Abba Father God, my Precious Saviour, Lord Jesus Christ,

Father God, today, I need to ask for strength and wisdom and understanding so that what I say and do is of the  truth in Your Word and I ask that You might pour Your Light into my life and show up any dark spots that I do not even know about and I right now Father God confess that I have been lazy and done my own thing yesterday and I have not gone out and done the good things that You had prepared for me to do and I did not Worship You as I ought or as I wanted to. I have not studied as I ought O God and the extra plan I made for studying just went out the window.  I need to be cleansed of my thoughts also for I did not take every thought I got, captive, and I have not listened patiently to those who need to be encouraged. O God in Your mercy, please cleanse my heart O God and make it ever new. Be merciful to me a sinner and wash my feet Lord Jesus and not only my feet but also my hands for I have touched the unclean. Lord God as I study Your Word now, speak to me and convict my heart of  any sin lurking there or hidden there, any wrong doing O God and help me this day to walk in the Light as Christ is that Light  in and of my life. I Thank You Father that You know my heart, for You gave it to me, better than I know it myself. Lord Jesus You are so beautiful  and I want to gaze upon You all day for I long to be the person You have created me to be but till then O God I have to  rest in my Saviour Jesus in whose holy Name I offer my supplication  

Amen!

Thank You Lord for saving my soul, Thank You Lord for making me whole, Thank You Lord for giving to me, Thy Great Salvation so rich and free. Thank You Father God for washing me in Lord Jesus Precious Blood, Your Spotless Lamb, who taketh away the sin of the world, for it is His blood alone that cleanses me from sin. It is His Precious Blood alone that washes me, whiter than the snow, and it is in His Dear Name alone that I offer my sacrifice of Praise and Adoration and I Worship You O God this day at Lord Jesus Feet for it is at the cross, at that cruel, yet wondrous cross, that I first saw the Light, and it was there, that the burden of my heart, just rolled away for it was there by faith that I received my sight and today I can say, honestly, that  I am so happy, happy all day long, for You have filled my heart, my soul and my mind with sheer Joy.

Most Gracious, Ever Merciful, All Powerful Abba Father God, my Precious Saviour, Lord Jesus Christ,

Your Word is so exciting and it is new every morning and I Thank You Lord Jesus for waking me in this second watch of the morning for I want to Praise You Lord as I wake up and prepare for my study in Your Word and I do lift my hands that have been cleansed by Your Precious Blood and my voice that You have so graciously given to me to sing praises to You. Thank You Father God for every hymn that You enabled so many of Your precious saints to write for our Joy and our Blessing. Thank You for their dedication and diligence and that through the study of Your Word they wrote the hymns which today are so uplifting and many of them Lord Jesus lead us to conviction of our sin and true repentance and love. O God I today do mourn over the sin in this world and I mourn even right now over my own sin which is ever before me for the closer I get to You Lord Jesus the more I realize how far short I fall of being the person I ought to be. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit O God that I might walk in Christ Jesus, and remain in Him all day and cleanse my heart O God through the Word that He speaks into my soul which makes me clean and sincere and of a sound mind because the only thing I can do Father God is to love Him and spend all my time with Him for He alone is my righteousness and I want to be found in Him and in no other place O God where He does not lead. It is in His Presence that I have fullness o Joy and I love Joy and long for more Joy, the day He will receive me unto Himself in Glory for this is my hope in Him, and my only hope in this world is to be found of Him faithful. and a true witness of truth and righteousness and justice, and I am weak and sinful and lazy O God and I need my Saviour constantly O how I need Thee Precious Saviour, Lord Jesus, for Thou art all to me; Before Thy Throne forever, I stand complete in Thee. Though Satan loud accuses, Yet I can ever see, Thy blood Lord Jesus Christ which is my perfect plea. I need Thee, Precious Saviour! For I am very poor; A stranger and a pilgrim, I have no earthly store. I need Thy love, Lord Jesus, To cheer me on my way, To guide my doubting footsteps, To be my strength and stay. I need Thee, Precious Saviour! I need a Friend like Thee: A Friend to soothe and comfort, A Friend to care for me; I need Thy heart, Lord Jesus, To feel each anxious care; To bear my every burden, And all my sorrow share. I need Thee, Precious Saviour! I need Thee all day long, To fill me with Thy fullness, To lead me in Thy way: I need Thy Holy Spirit To teach me what I am - To show me more of Lord Jesus, To point me to the Spotless Lamb of God who taketh away the sin of the world. Thank You Abba Father for Christ Jesus and in His Holy, Matchless, Glorious Name above every other name I offer my Praise and Thanks and Adoration and I Worship You Father God and I declare my love for You Father God because of Him, Your One and Only Truly Begotten Beloved Son, because You have accepted me in Him 

Amen!

Thou art God Lord Jesus Christ and I love Thee Lord for You, a long time ago now, bought me on the slave market of sin and You have washed me and cleansed me continually and You have buried my sins in the depths of the sea. O Lord Jesus how can I say Thanks for all the things that You have done for me? You died for me, in my place and there is no greater sacrifice than that and everything else which I have received is because of Your great love in dying in my guilty room and stead. You the Just Lord Jesus died for me the unjust and even today I still mourn over my sin and the sin of those around me and for the hearts that are so hard, hard, hard because of sin and I plead for mercy O God that You would reach down and by Your marvelous grace forgive me my trespasses as I forgive all those who have trespassed against me and deliver me from evil for You alone are worthy to receive all the Glory for all the Glory belongs to You alone Lord Jesus and in Your Name I pray Lord

How Gracious and how good You are to me Father God.  I cannot express in words but I do trust my Precious Saviour to look into my heart and to cleanse me O God from all evil, and piousness, and to keep me in the palm of His hand for that is the only place I am confident and able to write and I ask that You might use Your Word O God for the Glory of Christ Jesus to draw all men unto Yourself while it is yet Today, Your marvelous Day of grace and I Thank You for deliverance from all sin and I rest in the fact that my sins have been washed away but I do mourn over my wrong doing and my laziness to do good things O God. I need Strength to cope in this life and I need to be calm when things around me seem like they are just impossible. I need a watch before my mouth O God. I need Lord Jesus to shut my mouth when I want to say unkind things. Please help me Lord and fill me with Your Holy Spirit so that I do not grumble at the prices for the food we buy. They are so high, just as your Word says they are going to be, and most people, ordinary people, not rich people, do not have enough money to pay for their needs and so I lift my voice and I cry to You for mercy Lord Jesus so that You will intervene in these corporations that do not pay their staff as they ought according to Your will O God for You are the One who has declared that the worker must be paid right and I also do pray for the lazy workers who just stay away from work and have no gratitude in their hearts for the great blessings they have in having a job to go to where they can earn an honest living. Thank You Father God for every provision that You have made for me and that I have lack of nothing and Father today I am so sorry that I never trusted You more in the years that were leading up to my pension. For You went before me, while I was not even thinking about the future as far as money is concerned, and You provided for me. Thank You Father God from the depths of my heart that when I was fast asleep You were wide awake and working out Your purpose in my life and that You are the One who does all things perfectly and so I today, all day long, I want to Praise You and Thank You an Honor You and Adore You for Your absolute and entire goodness and mercy and grace and truth literally poured into my life. I Bless You Lord Jesus with all that I am in You Lord forever and ever and I long to be where You are Lord Jesus so I can behold You in all of Your Glory for You are all Glorious and Matchless and Mighty and more Beautiful than any words can ever hope to describe. Cleanse my heart O God, keep it ever new, ever true, ever faithful, I ask in Lord Jesus Holy Name   

Amen!

Today O God, this beautiful new day that You have given to me, is so crisp and breezy and the stars are just magnificent in the navy blue sky in this the second watch and I just ponder the thought that one day You will come for me, a part of Your body, Your bride, like the Bright and morning star and it is just Glorious to contemplate Lord Jesus and I do so long for that day but today it is my desire to give diligence to make my calling and election sure and I need You Lord Jesus to fill me with Your Spirit so that I might examine myself to make sure that there is nothing that I am doing that is not according to Your will for my life and I ask for discernment Father God that I might perceive that which You want to get rid of in my life. Help me Lord Jesus to block out every evil thought and preserve my lips from any unpleasant communication. Help me Father God to see a need and then to fulfill it in Your strength and help me to use all my spiritual blessings that You have bestowed upon me. I thank You Father that Your Word says that we Your children are to pray about everything and Christ Jesus our Intercessor will make our prayers acceptable unto You and so Father God I offer my supplication in His Matchless  Dear Name

Amen!

O grant my yearning heart's desire, That I be filled with fervent zeal, To save poor sinners from the fire, To snatch them from the verge of hell, And turn them to a pardoning God, To cleanse their souls in Jesus' blood. I would the precious time redeem, And longer live for this alone, To spend, and to be spent, for them, Who have not yet my Saviour known; Fully on these my mission prove, And only breathe, to breathe Thy love. My talents, gifts, and graces, Lord, Into Thy blessed hands receive; And let me live to preach Thy Word, And only to Thy glory live; My every sacred moment spend, To publish forth the sinners' Friend. Enlarge, inflame, and fill my heart, With Thine own boundless love divine! So shall I all my strength exert, To love them with a zeal like Thine; And lead them to Thy open side, The sheep for whom their Shepherd died Thank You for Charles Wesley, Your servant Father who is such an inspiration to me, and may I too offer his hearts cry, as my own, in Lord Jesus matchless Name 

Amen!

Most Gracious, Ever Merciful, All Powerful Abba Father God, my Precious Saviour, Lord Jesus Christ,

O sacred Head, now wounded, With grief and shame weighed down; Now scornfully surrounded With thorns, Thine only crown; O sacred Head, what glory, What bliss 'til now was Thine; Yet though despised and gory, I joy to call Thee mine! What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered Was all for sinners' gain; 'Twas mine the dread transgression, But Thine the deadly pain. Lo, here I fall, my Saviour, 'Tis I deserve Thy place; Oh, look on me with favor; Vouchsafe to me Thy grace. What language shall I borrow To thank Thee, dearest Friend, For this Thy dying sorrow, Thy pity without end? Oh, make me Thine forever; And, should I fainting be, Lord, let me never, never Outlive my love to Thee. Father God according to Thy will I ask this my supplication in Lord Jesus Name

Amen!

5th April 2011.

Most Gracious, Ever Merciful, All Powerful Abba Father God,

Breathe on me Breath O God, Fill me with life anew, That I may love what Thou dost love, And do what Thou wouldst do. Breathe on me, Breath of God, Until my heart is pure, Until my will is one with Thine To do and to endure. Breathe on me, Breath of God, Till I am wholly Thine, Until this earthly part of me Glows with Thy fire divine. Breathe on me, Breath of God, So shall I never die, But live with Thee the perfect life Of Thine eternity. O please come Lord Jesus and may Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven I ask Father in Lord Jesus Name

Amen!

My Abba Father, I just love Your Word, and today I read this verse over and over again because it is just mind boggling and today I want to revel in it all day long for You are my God, and my Saviour, and my Lord, and my Master, and I know Lord Jesus that I belong to You as one of Your dear children, that is true, but  I am Your bond servant for my life, because You have called me, and set me apart, and anointed me, and blessed me so abundantly, and this verse O God in Your Word is the Joy in and of my life today and has been proven in my life for all the years I can remember and so I Praise You and Worship You and Adore You and Honor Your Holy Name which is above all other names for I know my own sin and it is ever before me and I long to be where I will never ever ever have to mourn so desperately over my sin and the sin of the people in this world but till then O my God, my Abba Father I cling to these Your Words "And God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them." Thank You, O Thank You Lord Jesus Christ, for every singly Precious Drop, of Your All Precious Blood, that You shed, that just poured out of Your sorely wounded side, upon this earth, all for the sin of this world and O my God please this day will You make Yourself very real in my life and I ask for a filling of Your Holy Spirit O God that I might sing Praises to You and that I might give out Your Word in Your Mighty Power and in Your Strength alone for this is my deep desire for today and it is my supplication and my very earnest prayer and I ask it Abba Father God, in Lord Jesus Holy, Peerless, All Glorious, Mighty Name and for His Dear sake alone 

Amen!

Most Gracious, Ever Merciful, All Powerful Abba Father God,

Thank You for a new month and Thank You for a new Sunday, a day in which I can lift my voice and Praise You for all Your marvelous blessings during this past week. You have showered Your rich blessings into my life and You have given me understanding and wisdom. You have established my way and You have enabled me to study and learn so much this past week. Thank You for strength and for the filling of Your Sprit. Thank You for leading hungry souls to my gate and for this I give You all the Glory and all the Praise for O how my confidence in Christ Jesus just grows and grows as I learn of Him and see Him at work in my life. Father my love grows stronger and stronger each day and each time You answer my prayers it makes me cry with joy and fills me with enthusiasm for it is the only way for me to know that I am praying and doing that which You have called me to do. Thank You Father for a sound mind and for the deep desire You have placed in my heart to learn of Christ who is my Lord and to take His yolk upon myself for He is meek and lowly in heart and Thank You for the rest that He has given to me. Rest for my weary soul and I want You O God to receive all the Glory for that which He has wrought in my life  for there is nothing more wonderful, in this life, than to be yoked to Him who is my Master. I offer this my prayer  Father God in His Name, the Name above all other names for I want to magnify Jesus Name, in everything  I do

Amen!

Help me to study diligently and purify me from all uncleanness Lord Jesus as I study, for You have called me to holiness and You have given me Your Spirit by which I am able to live, and to follow You Lord for it is only Your indwelling Holy Spirit that enables me to lead a holy life. Help me O God, to walk honestly toward them that are without, and  Bless me Abba Father for Lord Jesus sake that I may have lack of nothing but that in Your Power I may have courage. Courage to speak out Your warnings and to give out Your Word, honestly, in Your Spirit. I ask my request Father in Lord Jesus Name

Most Gracious, Ever Merciful, All Powerful Abba Father God,

Thank You for creating this universe in which we live today. Thank You Father God for the Mighty Waves that keep on rolling to the shore and that in them I am able to grasp a part of Your Great Power. The Lightening O God is quite magnificent as I look out over the hills and these hills where I live are too beautiful for Words. O how green they are Father God and I Thank You for them and for the cows and the sheep that are so attractive as I watch them graze on the green green grass and I ask today Father God that You would nourish me as I listen to the different programs that come on Christian Radio that get out Your Word for it is for my edification and I ask You to fill me with Your Spirit so that I might be attentive to it and to the needs of others and I Thank You Father that I can rest in the fact that You are transforming my life and that one day I will be like my Most Precious Saviour, my Shepherd, Lord Jesus Christ for this is my destiny and my longing and I trust You Father God to complete Your work of salvation in my life and that You would open my ears so that I hear His voice clearly for I know that You are in the process of sanctifying me and that one day You will have made out of this poor lump of dirty clay a vessel for Your Glory. Thank You Father God for this sure Hope I have in Christ Jesus my Lord and that He is with You even now, seated in Glory, where He has made a place for me, and I love You Abba Father God and I love Christ Jesus and I love Holy Spirit, all three the same for You are One and Christ Jesus has made me one in You  and in His Dear Name I today can offer this my supplication and boldly make my requests known to You O God

Hallelujah!
