Something you can't forget about

Category: New Testament

My prayers inspired by the New Testament books of the bible.

2 Corinthians 1: 12

Thomas Less, 08/21/2010

12Now this is our boast: Our conscience testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially in our relations with you, in the holiness and sincerity that are from God. We have done so not according to worldly wisdom but according to God’s grace.

Jesus, please let this be how I conduct myself, especially to my wife, children and friends.  I once was a very manipulative person, …

2 Corinthians 1: 10-11

Thomas Less, 08/19/2010

 10He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. On him we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us, 11as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on oura behalf for the gracious favor granted us in answer to the prayers of many.

Jesus, help me to set my hope on You, and let …

2 Corinthians 1: 8-9

Thomas Less, 08/19/2010

8We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about the hardships we suffered in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. 9Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead.

Father, I can see …

2 Corinthians 1: 5-7

Thomas Less, 08/18/2010

5For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows. 6If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. 7And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in …

2 Corinthians 1: 3-4

Thomas Less, 08/17/2010

3Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.

Jesus, again it seems I should thank-you for my problems and troubles.  It sounds like You are saying that the we …

2 Corinthians 1: 1-2

Thomas Less, 08/16/2010

1Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,

To the church of God in Corinth, together with all the saints throughout Achaia:

2Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Father, You are the only source of grace and true peace.  I can spend my time looking for help from friends and family, but it …

Romans 15: 31-32

Thomas Less, 08/14/2010

 31Pray that I may be rescued from the unbelievers in Judea and that my service in Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints there, 32so that by God’s will I may come to you with joy and together with you be refreshed. 33The God of peace be with you all. Amen.

Father, we know Paul was not rescued from the unbelievers…in the end they got him killed.  …

Romans 15: 30

Thomas Less, 08/14/2010

30I urge you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in my struggle by praying to God for me.

Lord Jesus, obviously prayer is so important.  How many brothers and sisters are struggling all around the world because they are bringing Your Word and salvation to others.  How little I have prayed for them.  Father, I don’t come close to …

Romans 15: 23-29

Thomas Less, 08/13/2010

23But now that there is no more place for me to work in these regions, and since I have been longing for many years to see you, 24I plan to do so when I go to Spain. I hope to visit you while passing through and to have you assist me on my journey there, after I have enjoyed your company for a while. 25Now, however, I …
