Good morning fight club. It’s another great day to fight.
Update on my treatment plan. Yesterday I visited my new medical oncologist and today I will visit my new radiation oncologist. I’ll have more information after today’s appointment.
Today’s pray focus is on the sacrificial life that Jesus lived. As I am preparing to put my body through hell in order to live I am reminded that Jesus walked the same road and for that I am grateful and inspired.
“Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.”
John 14:6 NLT
“Jesus said to the people who believed in him, “You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teachings. And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.””
John 8:31-32 NLT
“Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions.”
1 John 3:18 NLT
“I could have no greater joy than to hear that my children are following the truth.”
3 John 1:4 NLT
Father God I thank you for another day. God I thank you for your unfailing love and kindness. Lord your loving kindness is better than life itself. You are so good and so kind to those who ask for your help. Thank you for new mercies that I receive every single morning. Thank you for your grace and forgiveness. Thank you Jesus for giving your life for me. Let me never forget the cost you paid for me to receive freedom and to receive forgiveness for my sins. I am eternally grateful and eternally indebted to you.
As I rise to face another day of doing battle with cancer I am grateful for your presence and for inspiring me to have courage during this journey.
Jesus I could never repay you for what you have done for me but I pray that you take this day and take my life as my response to your love.
Lord today I pray for your servants. Foe those who stand with me in this fight against cancer.
For all those who serve you and search for you I pray for a renewed commitment to you. Help today to be a day of sobering reflection on the actual cost of their salvation and the actual sacrifice that you made to release them from the bondage and tyranny of sin.
Help them to absorb the full weight of your grace and mercy operating in their lives both publicly and privately.
Jesus I pray today that we respond to the revelation of the depths to which you dove deeply into this sinful world to save us. Let us hold nothing back in our ability to follow you and obey your voice. Let our lives be built on the truth of the gospel and the truth of your unflinching love for us.
Jesus you are the way, the truth, and the life. God where we have attempted to live life apart from your way and your truth bring correction and comfort. Jesus we acknowledge that you are the freeway to the father and we will no longer attempt to bypass you or your words in pursuit of the Father’s heart and the Father’s hand.
Help us to demonstrate our commitment to truth and justice with our actions. Help us to demonstrate our commit to the truth of the commandment to love others with our actions and our attitudes. God help us to acknowledge your truth as our worship offering to you.
Lord your word declares that you are seeking worship that is rooted in truth so I pray today that our lives be an offering to you that is anchored in our commitment to your word and a commitment to the truth of the gospel. Where our worship has been distorted with weightless words and lip service forgive us.
God you declare that your truth lives in us and it will not depart because it is eternal. God I pray today that your truth will dwell richly in our hearts and in our habits. Let the words that you declare over our lives ring true and everything else that is not of you fall to the ground and whither.
Let your love spring up in our souls today. Let it over flow and be our source of inspiration and hope. Let truth be our weapon against the enemy and let your word be forged in us like a weapon against the enemy.
God your word declares that as surely as the rain and snow falls and does not return to heaven without watering the earth that your word shall not return to you without accomplishing its purpose on earth.
God your word NEVER returns void and your truth is forever and your promises are yes and amen. Today Lord let your truth be seen, experienced and obeyed in our lives so that we are refreshed, renewed, and restored by your word.
In Jesus name.
