“THE HOPE TO WHICH HE HAS CALLED YOU” Ephesians 1 v 18

Trinity of Truth,
Nehemiah 2 v 20 I/we thank You that You “The God of heaven will give us success” in and through Your
John 14 v 6 Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. He who is “The Way, the Truth and the Life” of Your
righteousness, calling us to share in His own blessed holiness. Allow…….…to see,
understand and call upon this truth that (s)he may live by Christ’s promise “ ‘I have come that
John 10 v 10 they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly’.” In claiming this promise,
may………..come to proclaim it by her life. Develop in …….… the ministry which You have
blessed him/her by. May (s)he work faithfully, diligently and enthusiastically for Your honour and
glory by living and working in, with and through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Help, guide, strengthen……….to hear Your living word of truth, especially as revealed in
Hebrews 4 v 12 Christ. May Your word which will “Pierce even to the division of soul and spirit”, that human
spirit so susceptible to a mind set or emotional response, so impressionable to culture,
tradition and teaching, may Your word of truth become…….…only source of wisdom. “For
Hebrews 4 v 12 the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword.” Make
Your word, and Your word alone light up the way ahead, becoming increasingly and eventually
solely and entirely for……... “A discerner of the thoughts and intents of the
Hebrews 4 v 12 heart.” Do not let………...bend Your word to suit his/her own inclinations so (s)he only hears
what (s)he wants to hear, understanding only what (s)he wants to understand. Rather, let Your
word penetrate both heart and mind, feelings and understanding, inclinations and reasoning, that
…..…..will recognise all wrong attitudes, mistaken agendas, hidden thoughts,
repressed feelings and shortcomings whether conscious or subconscious.

Whilst not wanting……....to be repressed by sin, bring………to the point where Your word is so
clearly a revelation of truth in Christ Jesus our healing Lord of life, ……... will want to confess all
You say to him/her, Father. To confess is to agree with Your word, knowing for
based on certain that You, Father, in Christ, by Your Spirit of wisdom, truth and understanding, You,
Proverbs 3 v 26 “Will be……….... confidence and will keep……..… foot from being snared.” It is when
….. “Confesses with his/her mouth the Lord Jesus” all He says, does and is, “And
based on when……....believes in his/her heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, (s)he will be
Romans 10 v 9 saved.”

You, Lord Jesus Christ, are the solution, the only solution, our solution to life on God’s terms.
based on May……….. “Say the welcoming word to God -‘Jesus is my Master’ – embracing,
Romans 10 v 9, 10 body and soul, God’s work of doing in us what He did in raising Jesus from the dead.”
Bring ……..…to the position where (s)he realises (s)he is “Not doing anything, (s)he’s simply
calling out to God, trusting Him to do it for him/her. That’s salvation; with his/her whole being
(s)he embraces God setting things right and then……....says it right out
contn. loud: ‘God has set everything right between Him and me’.” May……....declare this loudly and
powerfully give witness throughout all aspects of his/her life.

Thank You, ever loving Father, that “Scripture reassures us ‘No one who trusts God like
Romans 10 v 14 this – heart and soul – will ever regret it….’ Everyone who calls ‘Help God!’ gets help’.”
And I/we now are urgently calling on ………...behalf because (s)he does not yet recognise that
(s)he needs this help. I/we claim Your promise that if we have faith as small as a mustard seed,
results will happen, not because of what I/we do, but because of focussing upon Your sovereign
authority, divine will, holy purpose and steadfast, merciful love. I/we know how vital – to the
point of being life saving – it is for ……....to receive the correct word of guidance. “For how can
