Thank You Father for Your glorious grace, which is extended to me and all that have strayed from Your paths of righteousness. Thank You for these warnings to get my life back in to right relationship with You and I repent of all my back-sliding and disinterest in what is so important – being in fellowship with You. I pray that from today forward I may only do those things that are pleasing in Your sight, in Jesus name I pray, AMEN
Heavenly Father, thank You for the lessons of Sardis and the need to keep our garments pure and undefiled and to walk in the light as He is in the light. Thank You that by grace through faith I have been declared worthy, not because of my own righteousness but by faith in the finished work of Christ on Calvary for the redemption of my soul. I pray that I may grow in grace and walk in spirit and truth.. and may I press on for the high call of God in my life and not compromise my faith through dead works. This I ask in Jesus' name, AMEN.
Heavenly Father, thank You for Your many precious promises and thank You also, for the serious warning that believers that live in carnality will suffer loss, when they come into Your presence. Lord, I do not want to compromise my faith, and waste my Christian life by living in carnality. I desire to do Your will for Your greater praise and glory. Help me to stay alert, remain obedient to Your Word, die to the desires of the flesh and live my life for Christ. Thank You that as Your child I am already an overcomer, by faith.. and that my name is written in the Lamb's book of life and can never be erased. However Lord, I want to carry out the works of righteousness, that You have prepared for me to do, in the power of the Holy Spirit, and to hear You say well done good and faithful servant, in the presence of God the Father and His holy angels. Keep me pure in spirit and deed unto my life's end - this I ask in Jesus name, AMEN.
O God, our Father, help us to see ourselves as children who seek guidance; children who walk in the midst of many dangers.
Help us not to be afraid so long as we walk close to Thee. Thy ways, O God are higher than our ways and often we do not understand. Teach us, O God, that we do not have to understand but to trust and Thou wilt see us through every difficulty in life.
When Thou art near, I am not afraid, I want to “draw nigh to God” in the assurance that when I do, He will “draw nigh unto me,”
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
Keep me Lord Jesus from developing an attitude of complacency in my Christian walk, and alert me to the many pitfalls and perils that strew the paths of all Your children. Keep me I pray, in full and utter dependence upon You alone, every moment of the day.. and I pray that one day I may stand before Your throne and hear You say, well done, good and faithful servant - in Jesus name I pray, AMEN.
Heavenly Father, what an amazing privilege to be identified with Christ as a member of His Body and to have the seal of the indwelling Holy Spirit as a guarantee, that we will be permanently established as pillars in the Temple of God, to Your praise and glory. Thank You that as Your children, we have Christ's name engraved upon us forever, and that nothing in heaven above nor the earth beneath, can separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus, our Lord, in Whose name we pray, AMEN.
Heavenly Father, thank You.. that I have the opportunity to learn a spiritual lesson, on how to live godly in Christ Jesus, through the failure of these people at Laodicea. I pray that my life may become a light in a darkened world and that my word may be witness to the goodness and grace of God.. to all, with whom I come in contact, for Your praise and glory - this I ask in Jesus name, AMEN.
Heavenly Father - the Lord Jesus Himself said that those that are pure in heart are truly blessed, but Lord I know that of myself I can never attain the standard of purity that You require. Lord, I know that only as I allow the Holy Spirit to live in me, work through me – to teach and train me will I come to that purity of heart that only comes from You – as You conform Your children into the image and likeness of the Lord Jesus.
Lord for too long I have been smugly comparing myself advantageously with others around me, and believing that I was pure in Your eyes - but now that I have come to realise that the only standard to which You are comparing me is the Lord Jesus, I humbly kneel before You, at the foot of Your throne and ask your forgiveness for my self-indulgent pride and ego-centricity. May I look to Jesus and live as He lived in spirit and truth – seeking only to do Your will and to live a life that honour You.
Search my heart and purify my thoughts and may Your indwelling Holy Spirit identify any pride and self-importance that is lurking within, and conform me day by day into the likeness of the Lord Jesus – and help me to make the right choices in my life.. the choices that honour You, in Jesus name I pray,
Amenm You – as You conform Your children into the image and likeness of the Lord Jesus.

Loving Father, thank You so much that You love me enough to discipline me when my focus strays from what is acceptable to You and beneficial for me. Help me to value what is important and to keep the focus of my heart - always on You, in Jesus name I pray, AMEN.
Loving Father, I know that my heart is not as fervently in love with you as it should be—thank You for Your grace and long-suffering patience with me. I confess I have quenched the Spirit in my life with my indifferent attitude and I want to change and live in submission to You… come into my heart today Lord Jesus and fellowship with me – for in You is the fullness of joy, I pray in Jesus name, AMEN.
Heavenly Father, I realise how easy it is to become complacent and lukewarm in our Christian walk, when we allow the passing things of this world to take our attention away from Jesus. May the eye of my heart be rooted and grounded in Him - and I pray that I may live a life that honours Your name, so that I may overcome in all things, and gain the promised reward.. of sitting with Christ on His throne, in His coming kingdom. This I ask in Jesus name, AMEN.
Heavenly Father, thank You for the Word of God and the indwelling Spirit of truth. I pray that by faith I may hear all that the Spirit has to say to the churches and apply all that I hear in my own life to Your praise and glory. Keep me from spiritual adultery, false teachings and anything else that might cause me to compromise my faith in Christ Jesus my Lord.. Who died for me so that by faith in Him I might overcome the world, the flesh and the devil - this I ask in Jesus name, AMEN.
