A Citizen of Heaven
Philippians 3:16-21
Dear Father,
I want to join all your holy people in imitating the example of your apostle Paul, and I want to take notice of people in my own time who live by the same example.
Thank you, my God, that my citizenship is in heaven, from which I wait the return of my Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.
Thank you, Father, that he will come to change my lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power which enables him to subject all things to himself.
In the name of Jesus I ask these things. Amen.
-----
Dear Heavenly Father, Bless and protect us. Give us Your wisdom in the decisions we make. Father, have mercy on us and deliver us. Cleanse us from unrighteousness and make us holy. I ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Dear Lord, help me to see that my first priority is to seek Your will in all things, and then to be obedient to it, no matter what the cost! ... Sacrifice isn't sacrifice unless I give up something important to me, is it? ... Commitment isn't commitment unless I put Your will ahead of my own desires. ... Help me to see that I have a long way to go before I grow out of my complacency, and my sometimes self-righteous arrogance. Help me to get on with my life, and to count You in.
In the name of Jesus I pray.
Amen.
