Heavenly Father, I am so grateful for the holy Scriptures, the truths they contain, the instructions we are given, the encouragement we receive, and the blessed hope we have in Christ. Thank You for all You are teaching me through the epistles of Paul and the other apostles and prophetic writings. I pray that I will never be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord Jesus and the glorious gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God working unto salvation to everyone who believes. I pray that I may be ready and willing to suffer for Your name’s sake, and to consider that the difficulties and dangers of being a Christian, are worthy of the hope I have in Him. This I ask in Jesus' name, AMEN.
