Our Daily Prayer for Sunday - Amber Trawick
“Just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 5 having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He [a]made us accepted in the Beloved.
In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace”

What a revelation that He chose us to be His and He found good pleasure in doing it because of His rich grace. Let that permeate your thoughts today so that you may have peace knowing that in Jesus only we are holy without blame.
Father, I thank you today for peace knowing I belong to you. It is nothing that I could do or earn to be given the right to call you Abba Father. It is your good pleasure to extend grace to me today. I thank you because of Jesus blood; through Him only I am able to come boldly before you knowing I have access through the precious name and blood of Jesus.
I cast off Lord, any thoughts of shame, guilt, condemnation and unworthiness. I don’t have to beg for your love or kindness. You are not like man you don’t require pay back, because I could never do anything to earn your love, mercy or favor because it’s only because of your great grace and the blood of Jesus that I am saved. I am redeemed from the curse of sin, shame and death. I am free from performance-based relationship and I can rest in the fact that you love me unconditionally because in Jesus blood only I am redeemed! Hallelujah!
The revelation of your love drives me to good works, draws me into your presence, opens up my ability to cast off restraint and show great love and compassion for others. I will show great mercy, grace and kindness to others, because that’s who my Father is. I am like my Father because it’s Christ in me. I no longer live in sin but in Christ. Thank you, Lord, for the riches you have given me to know you in all of your ways and to glorify you in everything, because it’s only because of you that I live, I move and have my very being!
Amen to the glory of God the Father, I relish in your great love for me today.
