| I will be diligent in these matters; giving myself wholly to them, so that everyone may see my progress. 1 Timothy 4:15 Personalized Like newborn babies, I crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it I may grow up in my salvation, now that I have tasted that the Lord is good. 1Peter 2:2-3 Personalized I will make every effort to add to my faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love. For if I possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep me from being ineffective and unproductive in my knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Peter 1:5-8 Personalized I will do my best to present myself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15 Personalized Let me leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God. Hebrews 6:1 Personalized I kneel before the Father, from whom his whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen me with power through his Spirit in my inner being, so that Christ may dwell in my heart through faith. And I pray that being rooted and established in love, I may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge — that I may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Ephesians 3:14-19 Personalized I will no longer be as an infant, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, I will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ. Ephesians 4:14-15 Personalized I ask God to fill me with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. And I pray this in order that I may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that I may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified me to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. Colossians 1:9-12 Personalized Let the word of Christ dwell in me richly as we teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as I sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in my heart to God. Colossians 3:16 Personalized I am confident of this, that he who began a good work in me will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. And this is my prayer: that my love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that I may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, Philippians 1:6/9-10 Personalized |
