Jesus loves me.

 Amen. This is the simplest, most profound, and most beautiful truth in the entire universe. It is the foundation upon which every other promise and prayer rests.

"Jesus loves me."

This is not just a sentiment; it is the bedrock of our faith, the source of our hope, and the song of our salvation. It is the truth that calms our fears, forgives our sins, and welcomes us home.

The beloved children's song says it perfectly:

Jesus loves me! This I know,

For the Bible tells me so.

Little ones to Him belong;

They are weak, but He is strong.

Yes, Jesus loves me!

Yes, Jesus loves me!

Yes, Jesus loves me!

The Bible tells me so.

The Bible Does Tell Us So

This simple truth is declared throughout Scripture with the most powerful evidence imaginable:

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." - John 3:16

"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." - Romans 5:8

"This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us." - 1 John 3:16

His love is not based on our performance, our goodness, or our feelings. It is based on His unchanging, gracious, and everlasting character. He loves you.

A Prayer of Receiving This Love

Dear Jesus,

Thank you. Thank you for loving me.

When I feel unlovable, remind me that Your love is not a reaction to me, but a revelation of You.

When I feel alone, remind me that Your love is a constant presence.

When I feel weak, remind me that Your love is my strength.

Help me to truly know, deep in my heart, that I am loved by You. Not just to know it in my head, but to feel it in my soul, to rest in it completely.

Because You love me, I am safe.

Because You love me, I am forgiven.

Because You love me, I have a future and a hope.

I receive Your love for me today. Let this truth change everything.

In Your precious name, Amen.

A Blessing for You

May the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God be the air you breathe today. May you feel it in the sunshine, hear it in the quiet, and see it in the cross. No matter what you are facing, you can face it with this one, unshakable truth: Jesus loves you.

He really, really does.

Our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit.

 Amen. This is a profound and foundational truth that changes everything about how we view ourselves and our daily lives. It's not just a spiritual idea; it's a reality that should shape our actions, thoughts, and habits.

The Scripture is clear:

"Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies."

— 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (NIV)

What This Truth Means for Us

1. We are a Sacred Dwelling Place: In the Old Testament, God's presence dwelt in the Holy of Holies in the Temple. Now, through the Holy Spirit, God Himself lives within every believer. Your physical body is the sacred residence of the Almighty God. This gives you immense dignity and purpose.

2. We Belong to God: We have been "bought at a price"—the precious blood of Jesus Christ. Our lives are not our own to do with as we please. We are stewards of the bodies God has given us, and we are called to manage them for His glory.

3. We are Called to Holiness: The inner presence of the Holy Spirit should lead to an outward life of holiness. Just as the ancient Temple was kept pure and set apart for God, we are called to purify our lives from anything that defiles His holy dwelling.

A Prayer of Consecration

Holy God,

You are holy, and You choose to make Your home in me. This truth is too wonderful for me to fully grasp.

Forgive me for the times I have treated Your temple with carelessness—through what I've put into it, what I've done with it, or what I've allowed to influence it. I repent of dishonoring You, my Creator and Redeemer.

By the power of Your Spirit within me, I ask for Your help to honor You with my body today.

· Guide what I choose to eat and drink, that I may be a good steward of my health.

· Guard my eyes and my ears from things that defile and distract me from You.

· Direct my hands and my feet to acts of service and love.

· Use my mouth to speak words that build up and give grace.

· Renew my mind so that my thoughts are pleasing to You.

May my entire life—body, soul, and spirit—be a living temple, a holy sanctuary, where Your presence is unmistakable and Your glory is displayed.

In Jesus' name, Amen.

Practical Implications

This truth impacts every area of life:

· Physical Health: We honor God by caring for our bodies through rest, nutrition, and exercise.

· Mental Health: We guard our minds by focusing on what is true, noble, and praiseworthy (Philippians 4:8).

· Purity: We flee from sexual immorality and any other sin that defiles the temple.

· Addiction: We seek freedom from any substance or habit that masters our bodies, because we are meant to be mastered only by the Spirit.

You are carrying the presence of the Living God. Walk in that truth today, and let it inspire reverence, joy, and purpose in all you do.

The old rugged cross.

 Amen. "The Old Rugged Cross" is more than a hymn; it is a powerful declaration of faith, a cornerstone of Christian theology, and a deeply personal testament of love for the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

It points us directly to the center of our faith: the place where the love of God and the sin of humanity collided, resulting in our redemption.

The Heart of the Hymn

The hymn, written by George Bennard in 1913, contrasts the shame and suffering of the cross with its incredible glory and attraction for the believer. It's a profound meditation on the paradox of the cross: an instrument of brutal death becoming the source of eternal life.

Key Themes in "The Old Rugged Cross":

1. A Personal Exchange: "And I will cling to the old rugged cross, and exchange it some day for a crown." This speaks of the great exchange—our sin for His righteousness, our shame for His glory, our death for His life.

2. Unfathomable Love: "So I'll cherish the old rugged cross, till my trophies at last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged cross, and exchange it some day for a crown." The cross is cherished because it is the ultimate proof of God's love for us (Romans 5:8).

3. The Path to Glory: The cross is not the end. It is the pathway to eternal life and victory. The sorrow and suffering of Friday gave way to the joy and triumph of Sunday.

A Prayer at the Foot of the Cross

Lord Jesus,

We come before You today, humbled and in awe of the old rugged cross. We cannot fully comprehend the weight of the suffering You endured there—the physical agony, the spiritual burden of sin, the separation from the Father.

But we thank You. We cherish that cross, for it was there:

· Your blood was shed to wash away our guilt.

· Your body was broken to make us whole.

· The wrath of God was satisfied, and we were reconciled.

· The power of sin and death was forever broken.

Forgive us for the times we have treated Your sacrifice lightly. Help us to never move on from the wonder of the cross. Let it be the central truth of our lives, the source of our hope, and the motivation for our love.

We cling to that cross today, not as a symbol of death, but as our guarantee of life, our promise of a crown, and our eternal trophy of Your grace.

In Your precious and mighty name, we pray. Amen.

A Reflection

"For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God."

— 1 Corinthians 1:18 (NIV)

The world may see a tragic execution, but we see the power of God for salvation. The old rugged cross is our hope, our song, and our victory.

May you cherish the cross today and always.

Let incense arise

 Amen. "Let incense arise" is a powerful, poetic prayer that reaches back to the very heart of biblical worship. It is an echo of King David's cry and a reflection of the worship in heaven.

"Let my prayer be set before You as incense, The lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice."

— Psalm 141:2 (NKJV)

"...and the golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints."

— Revelation 5:8 (NKJV)

When we pray, "Let incense arise," we are asking that our prayers, our worship, and our very lives would be a sweet and pleasing aroma to God, rising steadily and faithfully to His throne.

A Prayer for Our Incense to Arise

Heavenly Father,

You are the Holy One, enthroned in the praises of Your people. We come before You now, asking that our worship would be a fragrant offering, pleasing to You.

Let our incense arise.

· From the quiet moments of whispered gratitude, let a sweet scent arise.

· From the desperate cries of a burdened heart, let a honest scent arise.

· From the joyful shouts of a rescued soul, let a triumphant scent arise.

· From the silent perseverance in trial, let a faithful scent arise.

· From the lifting of holy hands in surrender, let a surrendered scent arise.

We add our prayers to the golden bowls in heaven. We join the eternal chorus around Your throne.

Holy Spirit, be the fire on the altar of our hearts. Kindle our prayer life. Fan the flames of our devotion. May the incense of our lives burn continually, never going out.

We offer this not for our own glory, but for Yours alone. Receive our worship, O Lord.

In the name of Jesus Christ, our great High Priest, who makes our prayers acceptable, Amen.

A Blessing for Your Worship

May your life today be a constant altar from which the incense of prayer and praise rises to God. May your every thought, word, and deed be an offering lifted to Him. And may you be assured that your prayers are heard, collected, and cherished by the One who delights in your love.

Let it arise.

Your faith have set you free.

 Amen. Thank you for speaking this powerful truth. It is a declaration that echoes the very words of our Lord Jesus Christ:

"Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." (John 8:32)

"So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." (John 8:36)

When you say, "Your faith has set you free," you are pointing to the dynamic power of believing in Jesus and His finished work. It is not the amount of faith, but the object of faith—Jesus Christ—that brings true liberation.

What Does This Freedom Mean?

This freedom, activated by faith, is multi-faceted and profound:

1. Freedom from the Penalty of Sin: Through faith in Christ's sacrifice, we are freed from the eternal condemnation our sin deserved (Romans 8:1).

2. Freedom from the Power of Sin: Faith gives us access to the Holy Spirit's power, freeing us from the compulsion to sin. We are no longer slaves to our old nature (Romans 6:6-7, 18).

3. Freedom from Fear: Faith casts out the spirit of fear—fear of death, fear of the future, fear of man (2 Timothy 1:7, Hebrews 2:15).

4. Freedom from Condemnation: Faith assures us of our identity as beloved children of God, freeing us from the shame and accusation of the enemy (Romans 8:33-34).

5. Freedom to Live: We are freed from sin and death so that we can be freed to live a life of love, purpose, and joyful obedience to God (Galatians 5:13).

A Prayer to Walk in This Freedom

Lord Jesus, my Liberator,

Thank you for the incredible gift of freedom purchased by Your blood. I receive afresh today the truth that it is by faith in You that I am set free.

Help me to walk in this reality every moment.

· When old habits and thoughts arise, remind me that I am no longer a slave to them. I am free.

· When the accuser whispers lies of condemnation, remind me that I am fully forgiven and righteous in You. I am free.

· When fear tries to paralyze me, remind me that You have given me a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind. I am free.

My faith is in You, Jesus—the Truth, the Way, and the Life. You are the source and the sustainer of my freedom. I declare today that I am not trying to get free; I am free because of You.

Help me to use this freedom not for my own selfish purposes, but to love and serve others, glorifying You in all I do.

In Your mighty and freeing name, I pray. Amen.

A Declaration of Faith

Speak this truth over your life:

· I am free from condemnation.

· I am free from the power of sin.

· I am free from the spirit of fear.

· I am free to love, to worship, and to obey God.

· I am free indeed!

Walk in this glorious freedom today. It is your inheritance in Christ.

My God will not slumber or sleep.

 Amen. This is a powerful declaration of truth and a profound source of comfort. You are standing on the promise of Psalm 121, a song for those on a difficult journey, reminding us of God's vigilant, constant care.

"Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord is your keeper..."

— Psalm 121:4-5 (ESV)

The Power of This Truth

When we say, "My God will not slumber or sleep," we are proclaiming:

1. His Unbroken Vigilance: There is not a single second of the day or night when His watchful eye is off of you. He is not distracted, weary, or inattentive. Your case is always before Him.

2. His Constant Activity: While you sleep, God is still working on your behalf. He is orchestrating circumstances, fighting unseen battles, and preparing blessings for you—all while you rest.

3. Our Ultimate Security: Our peace does not come from the absence of danger, but from the presence of a Keeper who is always alert. Our security is in His nature, not our situation.

A Prayer of Trust in Our Wakeful God

My Faithful God, My Keeper,

In a world full of uncertainty and in a life where I grow weary, I proclaim this truth today: You never slumber, and You never sleep.

Thank You that I am never alone, never forgotten, and never unwatched.

· When I lie down at night, You are my guard, and I can rest in perfect peace, knowing You are awake.

· When I face challenges that keep my mind racing, I can release them to You, the One who never rests in His care for me.

· When I feel invisible in my struggle, I remember that Your gaze is constantly upon me with love and purpose.

Forgive me for the times I have acted as if You were distant or asleep, trying to carry burdens that only You can hold.

I place my life, my family, my worries, and my future into Your wakeful, capable hands.

You are my keeper. My shade at my right hand. My protector from every evil. I trust in You.

In the name of Jesus, Amen.

A Blessing for Your Rest and Your Watch

May this truth sink deep into your spirit today. May it calm your anxieties and give you courage. May you work and rest today with the quiet confidence that you are kept, watched over, and loved by a God whose vigilance never falters.

Sleep in peace tonight. He is awake.

Faith like mustard seeds moving mountains.

 Amen. This is a powerful and humble prayer, acknowledging that even a small, genuine faith, when placed in an all-powerful God, can accomplish the impossible. You are asking for exactly what Jesus described:

He replied, "…Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." (Matthew 17:20)

The key is not the size of your faith, but the object of your faith. A tiny seed of faith in the massive, mountain-moving power of God is more than enough.

A Prayer for Mountain-Moving Faith

Lord Jesus,

You are the author and perfecter of my faith. You said that even faith as small as a mustard seed can command mountains to move. I believe; but I ask You today, help my unbelief!

I confess that my faith often feels small and weak. I look at the mountains in my life—the problems that seem immovable, the habits that seem unbreakable, the circumstances that seem impossible—and I feel overwhelmed.

But today, I take my eyes off the mountain and fix them on You, the Mountain-Mover.

· Take this tiny seed of faith I have and plant it deep in the soil of Your promises.

· Water it with Your Word and the testimony of Your faithfulness.

· Nurture it by Your Spirit, causing it to grow and become strong.

· Protect it from the birds of doubt and the weeds of worry.

I am not asking for a feeling of great faith; I am asking for a faith that tenaciously clings to a great God. I am not relying on the power of my belief, but on the unchanging power of the One in whom I believe.

So right now, in the authority of Your name, I speak to the mountains of [mention your specific "mountain," e.g., debt, sickness, broken relationship, fear] and I say: "Be moved! Be cast into the sea!" I command you to make way for the glory and power of God to be revealed.

I thank You, Lord, that You are faithful, and that with You, nothing is impossible. I will watch and wait for the moving of my mountain, trusting not in what I see, but in who You are.

In the mighty name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.

How to Nurture Your Mustard Seed Faith

1. Feed it on God's Promises: Faith comes from hearing the Word of God (Romans 10:17). Read scriptures about God's power, faithfulness, and willingness to act.

2. Recall His Past Faithfulness: Remember times when God has come through for you or others. This builds a history with God that strengthens faith for the future.

3. Speak to the Mountain: Just as Jesus said, use your authority in His name. Verbally command your obstacle to be removed, not in your own power, but in the name and authority of Jesus Christ.

4. Thank Him in Advance: Praise God for the answer before you see it. This is a powerful act of faith that demonstrates your trust in His character.

Your "mountain" may be a financial crisis, a health diagnosis, a family breakdown, or a deep-seated fear. Whatever it is, hold onto this truth today: The same power that raised Christ from the dead is at work in you. Your small, sincere faith is the channel for His infinite power.

Go in peace, and watch your mountain move.

In his presence...

 ...is fullness of joy. (Psalm 16:11)

Amen. You have spoken the culmination of everything. All the prayers we've lifted—for blessing, guidance, freedom, and victory—find their answer and their fulfillment in one place: in His presence.

This is the final and ultimate truth. The Christian life is not about seeking things from God, but seeking God Himself. In finding Him, we find everything else.

In His presence:

· Worry ceases, because we encounter the God who holds our future.

· Worship flows naturally, because we see His beauty and holiness.

· Strength is renewed, because we tap into the source of all power.

· Purpose is clarified, because we hear the voice of our Creator.

· Joy is complete, because we are in communion with the source of all joy.

A Prayer of Abiding

Lord God,

You are my dwelling place, my refuge, and my greatest reward.

After all is said and done, the only thing I need is to be with You.

Draw me deeper into Your presence today.

Beyond my to-do lists, beyond my requests, beyond my struggles—let me simply be with You.

In the quiet, speak.

In the stillness, reign.

In the communion, fill me with the joy that knows no end.

I set aside everything to seek Your face. Here I am.

Amen.

May you live today, and all your days, consciously and joyfully in the glorious, life-giving presence of God.

All the days of my life,I will worship you.

 Amen. This is a beautiful, powerful, and eternal declaration of devotion. It is the ultimate response of a heart that has experienced the grace, mercy, and faithfulness of God. To declare "all the days of my life, I will worship you" is to offer God the one thing He seeks: a loving, committed heart.

This is not just a promise for a moment of high emotion; it is a vow for the mundane Mondays, the difficult seasons, the times of joy, and the times of sorrow. It is a commitment to a lifestyle, not just an activity.

A Prayer of Lifelong Worship

Heavenly Father, God of my life,

From the breath in my lungs this morning to the final beat of my heart, I declare that my life is for Your glory.

Before I am anything else—a worker, a parent, a friend—I am a worshipper.

· On the bright, joyful days, I will worship You with a grateful song.

· On the ordinary, routine days, I will worship You with a faithful and obedient heart.

· On the difficult, painful days, I will worship You through tears, trusting in Your goodness.

· In my youth and in my old age, in strength and in weakness, my declaration will remain the same.

When I don't feel like it, teach me to worship.

When I don't understand Your ways, give me a trusting heart that worships still.

Let every triumph be a hymn of praise, and every trial be an altar of surrender.

I consecrate my entire life to You—my time, my talents, my treasures, my thoughts.

May my every moment be an offering, and my entire life a living hymn of worship to You.

In the name of Jesus Christ, who is worthy of all my worship, forever. Amen.

---

The Biblical Heart of Worship

This vow echoes the cry of King David and the eternal song of heaven:

"I will extol the Lord at all times; his praise will always be on my lips." (Psalm 34:1)

"Blessed be the Lord, day by day..." (Psalm 68:19)

"The four living creatures... day and night they never stop saying, 'Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty,' who was, and is, and is to come." (Revelation 4:8)

Worship is our purpose. It is the thread that weaves through "all the days of my life," giving them eternal meaning and connection to God.

A Blessing for Your Journey of Worship

May your life be a sweet-smelling aroma to God. May your worship be a constant in a changing world, an anchor for your soul, and a light to those around you. As you commit to worshipping Him all your days, may you experience the profound truth that in His presence is the fullness of joy.

Go in peace, and walk in worship.

God, Please make me head and not tail.

 Amen. This is a powerful prayer rooted in the promises God gave to His people. It is a plea for divine positioning, favor, and influence according to His will.

The language comes from Deuteronomy, where God outlines the blessings of obedience:

"The Lord will make you the head, and not the tail; you shall be only at the top, and not at the bottom, if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God..."

— Deuteronomy 28:13

This is not merely a request for personal success, but for the fulfillment of God's purpose for your life—to be in a position of positive influence, leadership, and blessing, so that you may be a greater blessing to others and a testament to His faithfulness.

A Prayer to Be the Head and Not the Tail

Heavenly Father,

You are the Sovereign God who raises one up and sets another down. Your Word contains a promise for Your children: that we can be the head and not the tail, above and not beneath.

I come before You today, Lord, and I ask for the fulfillment of this promise in my life, according to Your perfect will.

· Position me for Your purpose. Place me in roles, relationships, and situations where I can exert godly influence and lead others toward Your light.

· Grant me divine wisdom and discernment so that my leadership and decisions are guided by Your Spirit and aligned with Your Word.

· Bless the work of my hands with excellence and fruitfulness, so that my success is a testimony of Your goodness.

· Guard my heart from pride. Remind me constantly that any position I hold is a stewardship from You, and it is for Your glory, not my own.

· Make me a blessing. As You elevate me, let me use that platform to lift others up, to provide for the needy, and to advance Your Kingdom on earth.

I declare that I will walk in obedience to Your voice and cling to Your commandments. I submit my ambitions to Your lordship.

In the mighty name of Jesus, the ultimate Head of all things, I pray. Amen.

Key Principles for This Prayer

1. It's About Stewardship, Not Just Status: Being the "head" is about responsibility and influence for God's kingdom, not just personal privilege.

2. Obedience is the Pathway: This blessing is coupled with a heart that seeks to obey God (Deuteronomy 28:1-2). It flows from a relationship with Him.

3. God's Definition of Success: God's idea of being the "head" may look different from the world's. It is rooted in servanthood (Mark 10:43-44) and eternal impact.

4. Trust His Timing and Method: God may elevate you in ways you don't expect. Trust that His plan to position you is perfect.

A Declaration of Faith

· I am blessed in the city and blessed in the field. (Deuteronomy 28:3)

· God is opening His good treasury to me. (Deuteronomy 28:12)

· I am the head and not the tail, above only and not beneath, because I am a child of the Most High God, walking in obedience to Him.

May you walk in the confidence of God's calling and positioning. May He establish the work of your hands and make you a leader and a light in every sphere He places you.

God will not temp us beyond our abilities.

 Amen. This is a crucial and comforting promise that God has given to every believer, especially in times of trial and temptation. It is a bedrock truth for our endurance and hope.

The Scripture says:

"No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it."

- 1 Corinthians 10:13 (NIV)

Let's break down this incredible promise:

What This Promise Means For Us

1. You Are Not Alone in Your Struggle: "No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind." Your struggle is not unique or strange. Others have faced it and, by God's grace, have overcome. This removes shame and isolation.

2. God is Faithful, Even When You Feel Weak: Our ability to stand is not based on our own willpower, but on God's faithful character. He is monitoring the situation and will not allow the pressure to exceed the limit He knows you can handle in His strength.

3. The Limit is Set by God, Not the Enemy: The devil cannot tempt you beyond the boundary God sets. Like a fence around a trial, God determines its limits. He knows your breaking point and promises you will not break.

4. There is Always a "Way Out": God doesn't just promise we can "bear it"; He promises a "way of escape" (KJV). This is not necessarily a way to avoid the temptation, but a way to go through it without sinning. It might be:

   · A sudden moment of clarity or remembrance of a Scripture.

   · The strength to simply turn and walk away.

   · A friend who calls at the right moment.

   · A supernatural filling of peace that displaces the desire.

It is vital to remember that God Himself does not tempt anyone (James 1:13). He allows testing to strengthen our faith, but He never entices us to sin. This promise is about His faithfulness to provide for us in the midst of the temptations that come from the world, the flesh, and the devil.

A Prayer for Strength in Temptation

Heavenly Father,

Thank you for Your faithful promise. Thank you that You are intimately aware of my struggles and my limits. I confess that I often feel overwhelmed and fear that I will fail.

I lean not on my own strength, which is so weak, but on Your faithfulness.

When temptation feels overpowering, remind my heart of this truth: You are in control, and You have set a limit.

Open my eyes to see the "way out" that You faithfully provide.

Give me the humility to take it, the courage to walk through it, and the wisdom to recognize it.

Hold me up by Your Spirit, that I may not fall, but stand strong, enduring the test and bringing glory to Your name.

In the mighty name of Jesus, my Deliverer, I pray. Amen.

A Blessing for Your Journey

May you walk today with the confident assurance that your Heavenly Father is watching over you. He will not let you be pushed past your limit. He is your shield and your strength. Look for His way of escape in every moment of testing, and trust in His faithful love to see you through.

The Victory is won in Personal Prayer with God

 Amen. What a powerful and true declaration. This statement gets to the very heart of the Christian's spiritual authority and the source of our overcoming power. Victory is not merely won by prayer; it is won in the place of prayer, in that secret, personal communion with God.

Before the battle is ever fought in the visible realm, its outcome is determined in the unseen place of prayer.

Why Victory is Won in Personal Prayer

1. It is the Place of Surrender and Alignment: In prayer, we lay down our own strength, strategies, and timelines. We surrender our will to God's and align our hearts with His purposes. True victory begins not with us taking charge, but with us saying, "Not my will, but Yours be done."

2. It is the Place of Putting on Armor: We don't wait for the battle to put on our armor; we put it on in prayer. The "full armor of God" (Ephesians 6:10-18) is taken up through prayer and petition. Prayer is how we strap on the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, and take up the shield of faith.

3. It is the Place of Receiving Strategy and Revelation: God reveals the enemy's schemes and gives divine strategy in the place of prayer. He shows us not only what to fight, but how to fight. Many battles are lost simply because we charge ahead without first receiving our orders from the Commander.

4. It is the Place of Spiritual Engagement: Prayer is where we exercise the authority given to us in the name of Jesus. We bind the works of the enemy and loose the will of God. We are not just talking about God in prayer; we are engaging with Him and enforcing the victory Christ already won on the cross.

5. It is the Place of Receiving Strength and Peace: Before the victory is manifested outwardly, it is established inwardly. In prayer, God exchanges our anxiety for His peace, our weakness for His strength. We walk out of that place not as fearful soldiers, but as confident conquerors.

A Prayer for Victory in the Secret Place

Heavenly Father,

You are the Lord of Hosts, the Mighty Warrior who saves. We come before You now, acknowledging that every victory, every breakthrough, and every triumph begins here, in Your presence.

We lay down our own plans and strength. We surrender this battle to You.

In the mighty name of Jesus, we put on the full armor of God that You have provided. We take up the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is Your Word.

Give us divine strategy. Reveal the enemy's plans and show us how to pray.

We bind every spiritual force set against us, and we loose Your kingdom, Your will, and Your healing into our lives and circumstances.

Fill us with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Let it guard our hearts and minds as we trust in You.

We receive Your strength now. We receive Your courage. We receive Your victory by faith.

We declare that the battle is Yours, and the victory is assured because we have met with You.

In the conquering name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.

A Blessing for Your Prayer Life

May your prayer closet become your command center. May your quiet moments with God become the most strategic and powerful moments of your day. As you meet with Him, may you emerge not with a hope for victory, but with the assurance of a victory already won.

Go forth in the confidence that your personal prayer has secured the outcome. The fight of faith is fought on your knees.

We are a new creation in Christ.

 Amen! This is one of the most powerful and identity-shaping truths in all of Scripture. To say "we are a new creation in Christ" is to declare a supernatural, fundamental change at the very core of our being.

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come." - 2 Corinthians 5:17 (ESV)

This is not merely turning over a new leaf; it is a resurrection. It is not self-improvement; it is a divine transformation.

What It Means to Be a New Creation in Christ

1. A New Identity: Your core identity is no longer "sinner" but "saint." It is no longer "orphan" but "beloved child of God." You are not who you were; you are who you are in Him. Your past, your failures, and your old labels do not define you. Christ defines you.

2. A New Nature: The old, sinful nature that was enslaved to sin has been crucified with Christ (Romans 6:6). God has placed within you a new heart and a new spirit (Ezekiel 36:26). You now have the very life and nature of Christ in you, giving you the desire and the power to live for God (Philippians 2:13).

3. A New Position: You are "in Christ." This is a legal and spiritual reality. God the Father now sees you through the lens of His Son. You are seated with Christ in the heavenly realms (Ephesians 2:6), fully accepted, fully loved, and fully righteous in Him.

4. A New Power: The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead now lives in you (Romans 8:11). You are no longer powerless against sin, habit, or fear. You have been given the authority and power to live the life God has called you to.

5. A New Purpose: Your life is no longer about your own plans and ambitions. You are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for you to do (Ephesians 2:10). Your purpose is now tied to His eternal kingdom.

A Prayer to Walk in Your New Identity

Heavenly Father,

We stand in awe of the gospel. We are not just improved people; we are new creations! Thank you for this miracle of grace.

Forgive us for the times we live out of our old identity—believing the lies of the enemy, acting like helpless slaves to sin, and forgetting who we are in You.

By the power of Your Holy Spirit, make this truth a living reality in our daily experience.

· When we feel condemned, remind us we are fully forgiven.

· When we feel weak, remind us we are filled with Your resurrection power.

· When we feel lost, remind us we have a divine purpose crafted by You.

· When we are tempted, remind us that the old master has no authority over us anymore.

Help us to "put on" our new self each day, like a set of new clothes, and to walk in the freedom and authority of being Your new creation.

In the mighty name of Jesus, the Author of our new life, we pray. Amen.

A Declaration of Your New Creation Reality

Speak this truth over yourself today:

· The old is gone. My past is forgiven and its power is broken.

· The new has come. I am a new person, with a new heart and a new spirit.

· I am in Christ. I am accepted, secure, and significant in Him.

· I am God's masterpiece, created for a purpose.

· I am not who I used to be; I am who He says I am.

Walk in this truth today. You are not just trying to be better; you are new. Live from that reality.

We are covered by the Blood of Christ

 Amen. This is the bedrock of our faith, our hope, and our eternal security. To declare that "we are covered by the blood of Christ" is to proclaim the very means of our salvation and our standing before a holy God.

This is not a symbolic or superficial covering; it is a profound spiritual reality with eternal consequences.

What It Means to Be Covered by the Blood of Christ

In the Old Testament, the blood of sacrificial animals covered sin, temporarily setting it aside. But the blood of Jesus Christ, the perfect, spotless Lamb of God, does something far greater:

1. It Atoned for Our Sin: The blood of Jesus paid the full and final penalty for our sin. It was the ultimate sacrifice that satisfied the righteous wrath of God against sin.

   · "In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace." - Ephesians 1:7

2. It Justifies Us: When God looks at those who are in Christ, He does not see our sin and shame. He sees the perfect righteousness of Christ applied to us. We are declared "not guilty" because Jesus took our guilt.

   · "Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him!" - Romans 5:9

3. It Cleanses Us: The blood of Jesus doesn't just cover our sin; it washes it away, making us clean and pure before God.

   · "The blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin." - 1 John 1:7

4. It Provides Protection: Just as the blood of the lamb on the doorposts in Egypt caused the destroyer to pass over the Israelites, the blood of Christ protects us from eternal death and the power of the enemy.

   · "By faith [Moses] kept the Passover and the application of blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn would not touch the firstborn of Israel." - Hebrews 11:28

5. It Grants Access to God: Because of the blood, we can boldly approach the throne of grace. The veil that separated humanity from God's presence was torn in two by Christ's sacrifice.

   · "Therefore, brothers and sisters, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus..." - Hebrews 10:19

A Prayer of Thanksgiving for the Blood

Lord Jesus,

We come before You with humble and grateful hearts, acknowledging that there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. There is no other covering for our sin but Your precious blood.

Thank You for the cross.

Thank You for willingly shedding Your blood to pay a debt we could never pay.

We declare today that we are covered—our past is forgiven, our present is secure, and our future is hopeful because of what You have done.

When the accuser whispers our failures, we point to the blood.

When we feel unworthy, we remember we are justified by the blood.

When we feel dirty from the stains of the world, we trust in the cleansing power of the blood.

By faith, we hide ourselves in You. We are covered. We are safe. We are Yours.

In Your mighty and precious name, Jesus, we pray. Amen.

A Declaration of Faith

Speak this truth over your life:

· I am redeemed by the blood of the Lamb.

· I am forgiven and cleansed by His sacrifice.

· I am protected from the enemy's claims against me.

· I have bold access to the Father because of Jesus.

· I am covered.

Walk in the confidence and peace that this truth provides today. You are secure in Him.

Your Presence is all I prayed for.

This simple, powerful statement is the heart of true faith and contentment—the realization that in His presence is fullness of joy, and at His right hand are pleasures forevermore (Psalm 16:11).

Here is a prayer and declaration in response.

Your Presence Is All I Need

In the quiet and the chaos, Lord,

This is the truth my heart has stored:

Amid the noise,the rush, the race,

There is one necessary place.

Your presence is all I need.

Not the answers to my "why,"

Not just a blessing from on high.

Not merely healing,nor a sign,

But just to know that You are mine,

And I am Yours,and in this bond,

All other comforts lie beyond.

Your presence is my perfect peace,

When all my strivings,they must cease.

It is my light in darkest night,

My only and my truest sight.

It is my shelter from the storm,

A refuge,safe, and ever-warm.

When I am weak, Your presence is my power.

When I am lonely,You're my tower.

When I am lost,You are my way.

My dawn of hope,my brightest day.

"My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest." (Exodus 33:14)

So take the wealth, take the fame,

Take every other earthly name.

Let every other comfort flee,

If I may only have but Thee.

For in Your gaze, I am complete,

My victory is in defeat.

For when I have nothing but You,

I have everything,fresh and new.

Your presence is all I need.

It is my portion and my prize.

The eternal glory in my eyes.

Amen.

---

A Prayer to Abide:

"Lord Jesus, I confess that I often seek solutions more than I seek You. I seek comfort more than I seek Your companionship. Forgive me.

Right now, I turn my heart's attention to You. I still my soul before You. Your presence is the greatest gift, the deepest peace, and the most profound answer to every need I will ever have.

Whether in joy or sorrow, in plenty or in want, let this be the settled conviction of my heart: that with You, I have all I need.

Thank you for Your promise to never leave me nor forsake me. I rest in Your presence now.

Amen."

The Gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ.

This is the glorious, foundational promise of the Gospel—the ultimate gift that cannot be earned, only received.

Here is a meditation on this beautiful truth from Romans 6:23.

---

The Gift of God

The wage of sin is death, the Law does say,

A debt that we could never pay.

A holy,righteous, perfect cost,

For every single soul that's lost.

We try to work, we strive, we plead,

To satisfy this deepest need.

But all our righteousness is stained,

No purity in us remained.

But in that hopeless, desperate place,

A revelation of God's grace:

“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”(Romans 6:23)

A gift—not something to be bought,

By holy deed or earnest thought.

Not a reward for those who’ve striven,

But offered freely,sent from heaven.

The gift is eternal life to know,

The One from whom all blessings flow.

It’s not just endless,future years,

But knowing God,and banishing fears.

It starts right now,this very hour,

In Christ,a resurrected power.

And how is this great gift received?

In whom must our heart have believed?

“…through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

The only path,the one true cord.

His life,His death, His blood, His cross,

To save our souls from endless loss.

So do not strive, and do not try,

Upon your own weak strength rely.

But open up your hands,receive,

And on His promise,simply believe.

The gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ.

Reach out and take it.

It is for you.

---

What This Means:

This single verse contrasts two opposing systems:

1. The System of Works (Wages): You earn what you deserve. The "wage" or payment for our sin is spiritual and eternal death—separation from God.

2. The System of Grace (Gift): You receive what you do not deserve. The "gift" is the very opposite of what we earned—it is eternal life, a right relationship with God that begins now and lasts forever.

This gift is exclusively found "in Christ Jesus our Lord." He is the wrapping paper, the bow, and the content of the gift itself. To have Him is to have eternal life (1 John 5:11-12).

A Prayer to Receive the Gift:

"Heavenly Father,

I understand that I have sinned and that the rightful payment for my sin is death. I confess that I cannot save myself through my own efforts.

Thank you for Your incredible gift. Thank you that Jesus Christ paid the price for my sin on the cross so that I could receive eternal life as a free gift.

Right now, I stop trying to earn it. I open my heart and I receive Your gift. I put my full trust in Jesus Christ alone as my Lord and Savior.

Thank you for the eternal life I now have in Him. My trust is in Your promise, not my feelings.

In Jesus' name, Amen."

Bring me to heaven's staircase.

 Of course. This is a beautiful and profound prayer, a longing to draw nearer to God and to ascend into His presence. The "staircase to heaven" is a powerful image, reminiscent of Jacob's ladder, where the connection between heaven and earth is opened.

Here is a prayer and meditation to guide your heart on that ascent.

---

Bring Me to Heaven's Staircase

My feet are planted on the earthly ground,

Where daily cares and shallow sounds abound.

But in my spirit,there's a holy ache,

A longing only You can fully slake.

I do not ask to escape this world of care,

But for a glimpse of glory,here, right there.

A secret place,a portal, and a door,

Where I can come,and truly, deeply, soar.

Bring me to heaven's staircase.

Let it be the place of prayer,

Where I can meet You in the air.

Let it be Your Word,so true,

A step that brings me close to You.

Let it be in worship's song,

Where I can see where I belong.

"He said to them, 'Very truly I tell you, you will see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.'" (John 1:51)

For Jesus, You are the Staircase, You the Way,

The Ladder connecting night to day.

You are the One who bridges the great span,

The Son of God,the Son of Man.

So as I climb, step by step by grace,

Let me see the kindness in Your face.

With every step,let pride and self decrease,

With every step,let faith and stillness increase.

The first step up is often humility,

To lay down"my way" and simply "see."

The next isprayer, a conversation's start,

Where I pour out to You my seeking heart.

Another step ispraise, a holy breath,

That triumphs over fear and even death.

And then,surrender, letting go my will,

Upon Your promise,my own spirit still.

Bring me to heaven's staircase.

Not that I might boast or claim a height,

But to be changed within Your glorious light.

To catch a breeze from that eternal shore,

And love You,serve You, and yet long for more.

Until the day You call me from this place,

To dwell forever in Your glorious grace.

---

A Prayer for the Ascent:

"Lord God, my Heavenly Father,

I ask You to bring me to the foot of heaven's staircase. Draw my heart upward to You. I want to climb higher in my knowledge of You, in my intimacy with Your Spirit, and in the transformation of my character.

Forgive me for being content with the low ground. Forgive me for the distractions that keep me from ascending.

Jesus, You are my Staircase. I cling to You. As I read Your Word, as I pray, as I worship, and as I serve, let each act be a step upward, closer to Your heart. Let me feel the reality of Your kingdom breaking into my world.

Meet me on the staircase. Speak to me. Change me.

In the name of Jesus, the Way, the Truth, and the Life, I pray. Amen."

Life of Jesus in Poem.

Here is the life of our Lord Jesus Christ, from eternity to ascension, rendered in poetic form.

The Life of Jesus: A Poem of Love

I. The Word Before Time

Before the sun learned how to blaze,

Or stars were sprinkled through the haze,

The Word was with God,was God, the same,

The One who lit creation’s flame.

II. The Humble Entrance

A promise whispered,through the years,

Through prophet's voice and widow's tears,

Until the hour,the time was full,

And God’s own grace began to pull

The veil aside—an infant’s cry

Beneath a small,forgotten sky.

No royal palace,just a stall,

The Maker of the world,so small.

The shepherds came,the angels sang,

The hope of heaven to earth,it rang.

III. The Growing Years

He grew in wisdom,stature, grace,

In a small town,a hidden place.

At twelve,He sat with teachers, heard,

And spoke to them the holy word.

He knew His Father’s work and will,

But was obedient,patient, still.

IV. The Ministry's Dawn

At Jordan’s river,John proclaimed,

The Lamb of God,who bore no blame.

The heavens tore,the Spirit came,

As dove and voice declared His name.

Then driven to the desert bare,

He overcame the tempter’s snare.

With“It is written,” He stood firm,

The living Word,the holy term.

V. The Teacher and Healer

He walked the roads of Galilee,

And said,“Repent, and follow me.”

He touched the leper,gave the blind their sight,

He turned the darkness into light.

He preached the Sermon on the Mount,

The Kingdom’s blessed,profound account.

“You are the salt,you are the light,”

In Him,the day dispelled the night.

He stilled the storm and walked the wave,

His power was mighty still to save.

VI. The Friend of Sinners

He spoke to Samaritants,alone,

And made God’s loving kindness known.

He ate with tax men,sinners, all,

To offer hope,to break the fall.

He blessed the children,held them near,

“The Kingdom is for such,”so clear.

He raised the dead,He wept with grief,

The Son of God,the True Relief.

VII. The Turning Point

To Caesarea,He went to ask,

His closest friends a weighty task:

“Who do you say that I am?”

Then Peter said,“The great I AM.”

He spoke of cross and rising soon,

A strange and terrifying tune.

Upon the Mount,His glory shone,

The Chosen One,the Holy Son.

VIII. The Final Week

The crowds cried“Hosanna!” waved the palm,

A welcome,filled with fleeting calm.

He washed the feet of His own men,

A servant-Lord,again, again.

In upper room,the bread and wine,

The New Covenant,true, divine.

“Remember me,”His tender plea,

“My body broken,blood for thee.”

IX. The Darkest Hour

In Gethsemane,in deep despair,

He took on all our sorrow’s share.

“Not my will,but Yours,” He prayed,

The price of sin upon Him laid.

Betrayed with kiss,by friend denied,

While all His closest friends they hide.

Before the priests,the Roman throne,

He stood in silence,scorned, alone.

The whip,the thorns, the mocking crowd,

His name by all the nations cursed aloud.

They nailed Him to a criminal’s tree,

The Lord of Life,for you, for me.

“Father,forgive,” He gasped in pain,

“Their ignorance,this sin, this stain.”

“It is finished!”the victory cry,

The Lamb of God,for us, did die.

The sun went dark,the earth did quake,

The temple veil was torn for our sake.

X. The Glorious Dawn

In Joseph’s tomb,He laid three days,

As all of creation stood in a daze.

But death could not its Victim hold,

A truth more precious than all gold!

The stone was rolled,the tomb was bare,

He conquered sin and death’s despair!

To Mary weeping,spoke her name,

The risen Lord,alive, the same!

To Thomas’doubt, He showed His side,

“My Lord,my God!” the saint replied.

XI. The Ascension and Promise

On Olivet,He gave the call,

“Go to the world,and tell to all.”

Then lifted up,a cloud received,

While His disciples stood,believed.

He sits now at the Father’s hand,

The King of Kings,who rules the land.

And He has promised to return,

For this our waiting spirits yearn.

---

The Invitation

This is the story,true and vast,

From first to future,first to last.

The Alpha and Omega’s song,

To whom all praise does now belong.

Not just a tale of long ago,

But life for all who Him will know.

So come to Him,in faith, today,

And walk with Him the narrow way.

Book of Revelation in Poem

The Book of Revelation is a profound and majestic tapestry of prophecy, warning, and ultimate hope. Here is its story, rendered in poetic form.

---

The Revelation: A Poem of the End and Beginning

I. The Unveiling

A voice,a trumpet, and a light,

On Patmos’isle, on Lord’s Day bright.

“Write what you see,and send it forth,”

To seven churches in the north.

To each,a word of truth and fire,

A call to rise from sinful mire:

“Repent,hold fast, and overcome,

Until the final kingdom come.”

II. The Throne in Heaven

A door stood open,and a throne,

With jasper,ruby, emerald stone.

And He who sat there,glorious, vast,

Held future,present, and the past.

Four living creatures,day and night,

Cried,“Holy, Holy, Holy, might!”

And elders cast their crowns in praise,

For all creation,His word obeys.

III. The Scroll and The Lamb

A scroll was sealed with seven seals,

A mystery that time conceals.

No one was worthy,tears fell down,

Till stood a Lion to take the crown—

A Lamb,as slain, with eyes of flame,

Worthy to open and proclaim.

Then heaven’s hosts began the song:

“To Him who’s righted every wrong!”

IV. The Seals Are Broken

With every seal,a judgment rode:

White,red, and black, a fearful load.

Then pale,a horse whose name was Death,

And martyrs cried with dying breath,

“How long,O Lord?” Then silence fell,

As stars from shaken heavens fell.

“Wait yet a while,”the white robes said,

Till all their number should be made.

V. Trumpets of Warning

Then seven angels raised their horns,

And judgment fell on earth in storms.

Hail,fire, sea turned into blood,

The sun and moon in mourning stood.

A star called Wormwood,locusts’ sting,

An army from Euphrates’spring.

A third of earth was scorched and slain,

But still,mankind cried out in vain.

VI. The Woman and The Dragon

A woman,clothed with sun and moon,

Gave birth to One who’d rule all soon.

A great red dragon,waiting near,

Swept stars to earth,consumed with fear.

He sought the Child,but He was caught

To God’s high throne,where He was brought.

Then war in heaven,Michael fought,

The dragon down to earth was brought.

VII. The Beasts from Sea and Land

From sea,a beast with crowns and horns,

Whom all the world adores and mourns.

From earth,a beast with lamb-like voice,

Who makes the earth receive his choice—

A mark on hand or forehead plain,

To buy or sell,a binding chain.

But on Mount Zion,standing pure,

A hundred forty-four thousand,secure.

VIII. The Bowls of Wrath

Then from the temple,angels came,

To pour God’s final wrath in flame.

On earth and sea,on sun and throne,

On darkness,war, and Babylon.

Sores,blood, and scorching, painful heat,

Then,“It is done!” the cry complete.

IX. The Fall of Babylon

A harlot sat on waters wide,

With gold and pearl and sinful pride.

Drunk with the blood of saints,she fell,

As merchants mourned and kings as well.

“Come out,my people!” heaven cried,

“Lest in her plagues you still abide.”

X. The Wedding of The Lamb

Then sounded heaven’s loud“Hallelujah!”

The great whore’s rule was overthrown.

A feast was called,the Bride made ready,

In linen clean and pure as snow.

The King of Kings on white horse rode,

His name“The Word of God” bestowed.

The beast was cast in lake of fire,

And heaven’s choir sang ever higher.

XI. The Thousand Years and Final Doom

An angel bound the dragon old,

A thousand years in prison hold.

The martyrs reigned with Christ in light,

Till Satan’s brief,last, futile fight.

Then fire from God consumed the foe,

To lake of fire the devil go.

The dead were raised,the books were read,

And Death and Hades too were dead.

XII. All Things Made New

I saw a new heaven and new earth,

For former things had passed their worth.

New Jerusalem,like a bride,

Came down from God,with God inside.

No temple there,no sun, no night,

The Lamb Himself is all the light.

No tears,no death, no crying, pain,

For Christ Himself has come to reign.

“Behold, I make all things new!”

The words are faithful,sure, and true.

“I am the Alpha and the close,

To all who thirst,I freely give.”

The Spirit and the Bride say,“Come!”

Let all who hear now enter home.

Amen. Come, Lord Jesus, come.

Book of Daniel in Poems

Here is the Book of Daniel, a tapestry of prophecy and faithfulness, rendered in poetic form.

---

The Book of Daniel: A Poem of Faith and Fire

I. The Exiles' Stand

In Judah's fall,by Babylon's hand,

The finest youths were brought to that land.

Among them,Daniel, purpose clear,

Resolved his God alone to fear.

He chose plain food,a faithful test,

And God endowed him with the best.

With wisdom granted from above,

He served the king,but served with love.

II. The King's Great Dream

A dream of terror,dread, and might,

Robbed mighty Nebuchadnezzar's night.

No sage on earth the meaning told,

The mystery of the head of gold.

Then Daniel came,before the throne,

Not for his skill,but God's alone.

"A statue stands,of kingdoms four,

A stone will smash them,evermore."

The King of Heaven sets up a reign,

That shall forever,ever remain.

III. The Furnace Blaze

A gold idol,vast and tall,

A decree of death,a fatal call.

But three young men would not bow down,

Though faced with fire in Babylon's town.

"The God we serve is able to save,

But if He does not,be it known today,

We will not serve your gods of gold,"

A faith so fearless,brave, and bold.

The Son of God walked in the flame,

To shield His own and prove His name.

IV. The Madness of a King

A voice from Heaven,judgment spoke,

The king's great pride,the sentence broke.

He ate the grass,his mind was gone,

Till he confessed the Holy One.

"That God Most High does as He wills,"

His reason back,his spirit stills.

V. The Writing on the Wall

A feast of pride,in Belshazzar's hall,

They drank from vessels,holy and tall.

A finger wrote upon the plaster,

A message of the coming disaster.

"MENE,TEKEL, PARSIN," it read,

Your kingdom's judged,your life is sped.

That very night,the Medes broke in,

And brought the rule of gold to an end.

VI. The Den of Lions

A law was signed,a trap was laid,

For Daniel,faithful, unafraid.

He prayed to God,as was his way,

And in the lions'den, he lay.

The angel shut the lions'mouths,

In innocence,God proved his truth.

The schemers met a different fate,

Sealed by the law they sealed with hate.

VII. Visions of the End

Then Daniel saw the tides of time,

In visions vast and so sublime.

Four beasts arosefrom out the sea,

The powers of earth that yet would be.

A lion,bear, a leopard, dread,

A fourth with iron teeth,that nations fed.

Then One, Ancient of Days, sat down,

With countless hosts,He wore the crown.

The beast was slain,its power passed,

A Son of Man came forth at last.

To Him was given,power and fame,

An everlasting,global reign.

The Ram, The Goat, The Little Horn,

A detailed prophecy was born.

Of Greece and Persia,kings and wars,

And one who'd defy the heavenly laws.

He stops the sacrifice,sets up despair,

But broken at last,by no human hand there.

The Seventy Weeks, a numbered span,

To finish sin,for God and man.

An Anointed One,who'd be cut off,

To seal a covenant,strong enough.

A city rebuilt,then destroyed once more,

Till waves of judgment their fury outpour.

The End: The Time of The End

A man of linen,standing near,

Said,"Seal the words, do not fear.

Many will be purified,made white and clean,

Though wickedness advance,as yet unseen.

But you,go your way till the end, and then rest,

You will rise to receive your inheritance,and be blessed."

---

In Summary:

A book of fire,faith, and throne,

Where God makes His great power known.

To exiles in a foreign land,

He holds them in His mighty hand.

And shows the course of all man's days,

Till comes the Ancient One,to praise.
