VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Prayer: Father, I Choose To Boast Of My Lord Christ!

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father, 

I Come To You As A Child

Trusting You At Your Sovereign Word That 

You Will Train Me Up In The Way That I Should Go 

So That I Will Put Away Childish Things

And

Grow Up In Your Saving Grace 

So That Nothing That The Adversary Of My Soul Does

To Try And Turn Me Away From

The Path Of Righteousness 

Will Entice Me To Depart From The Light That 

Leads To Your Everlasting Life! 

I Come To You As An Eager Student

In The Eternity School Of My Lord Jesus 

Who, Alone, Saves 

And

I Ask You For The Eraser

To Clean The Tablet That Is My Heart

Of All Useless, Unprofitable, Ungodly Things 

Which Would Stunt My Growth

As A Child Of The Everlasting Father

The Prince Of Peace! 

In Saving Faith, Father 

I Beseech You For Your Writing Instrument That 

Will Burn The Truth Into My Heart Permanently 

So That My Thoughts Are Ever With You

And

My Words To My Brethren

Will Be The Wonderful Words Of Life! 

Father, I Choose To Boast Of My Lord Christ 

And

So I Come To You As A Willing Worker 

Desiring To Utilize A Space As A Worker In The Fields 

Which The Master Said Are Ripe For Harvest 

But For Which The Workers Are Few 

To Reap His White Wheat 

And

Bring That Goodly Harvest Home To His Barn! 

Father, My Hope Is In The Lord 

And

I Plead With You To Teach And Feed Me

Lead And Guide Me

Direct And Correct Me

Protect And Provide For Me

And

Commission And Accompany Me 

As I Seek To Do Your Holy Bidding

For It Is In Jesus Christ's Holy Name That 

I, Poor And Needy, Humbly Plead! 

AMEN!
