1 John 5:14—Now this is THE CONFIDENCE that we have in Him, that if we ASK ANYTHING ACCORDING TO HIS WILL, HE HEARS US. (15) And IF we know that HE HEARS US, WHATEVER WE ASK, we know THAT WE HAVE the PETITIONS that we HAVE ASKED of HIM.

Matthew 6:7—(Jesus speaking) “But when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words. (8) “Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows THE THINGS you HAVE NEED OF BEFORE YOU ASK HIM. (9) “In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. (10) YOUR KINGDOM COME, YOUR WILL BE DONE ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. (11) Give us this day our DAILY BREAD. (John 6:32—but My Father gives you THE TRUE BREAD from heaven. (33) “For THE BREAD of GOD is HE who comes down from heaven and GIVES LIFE TO THE WORLD.”) (12) And forgive our debts, as we forgive our debtors. (Matthew 18:21—Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, HOW OFTEN shall my brother sin against me, AND I FORGIVE him? Up to seven times? (22) Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but UP TO SEVENTY TIMES SEVEN.) (13) And DO NOT LEAD us into TEMPTATION,

(Mark 1: 1—The beginning of THE GOSPEL of JESUS CHRIST, the SON of GOD. (2) As it is written IN THE PROPHETS: (11) Then a voice came from heaven, “You are My beloved Son, in whom I am WELL PLEASED.” (12) And immediately THE SPIRIT DROVE Him into THE WILDERNESS. (13) And He was there in THE WILDERNESS forty days, TEMPTED by SATAN, and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to Him.) (Mark 1:2—“The voice of one CRYING in THE WILDERNESS: ‘Prepare THE WAY of the Lord, make HIS PATHS STRAIGHT.” Isaiah 40:3—The voice of one CRYING in THE WILDERNESS: prepare THE WAY of the Lord: make STRAIGHT in the desert A HIGHWAY for our God. (5) THE GLORY of the Lord shall be REVEALED, and all flesh shall see it together; for THE MOUTH of THE LORD has SPOKEN.” (6) The voice said, “CRY OUT!” and he said, “WHAT SHALL I CRY?” (9) O ZION, You who bring GOOD TIDINGS, Get up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem, You who bring GOOD TIDINGS, lift up your voice with strength, lift it up, be not afraid: Say to the cities of Judah, “BEHOLD YOUR GOD!” (10) Behold, the Lord God shall come with a strong hand, and HIS ARM shall RULE for Him, behold, His REWARD is with Him, and HIS WORK BEFORE HIM.) :

“ BUT DELIVER US FROM THE EVIL ONE. FOR YOURS is THE KINGDOM and THE POWER and THE GLORY forever.” Amen

Psalm 111:2—THE WORKS of the Lord are great, STUDIED by ALL who have PLEASURE in THEM, (3) His work is honorable and GLORIOUS, and HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ENDURES FOREVER. (4) He has made HIS WONDERFUL WORKS to be REMEMBERED; The Lord is gracious and full of compassion. (5) He has GIVEN FOOD to those who fear Him; He will ever be mindful of His covenant. (6) He has DECLARED to HIS PEOPLE THE POWER of HIS WORKS, IN GIVING THEM THE HERITAGE OF THE NATIONS.

Psalm 2:6—Yet I have set My King on My holy hill of ZION. (7) I will DECLARE the decree: The Lord has said to Me, You are My Son, Today I have begotten You. (8) ASK OF ME, and I WILL GIVE YOU THE NATIONS for YOUR INHERITANCE, and the ends of the earth for Your possession.

Hebrews 1:1—God, who at various times and in different ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, (2) has in THESE LAST DAYS spoken to us BY HIS SON, whom He has appointed HEIR of ALL THINGS through whom also He made THE WORLDS; (3) who being the brightness of HIS GLORY and the express image of His person, and upholding all things BY THE WORD of HIS POWER, when He had by Himself purged our sins, SAT DOWN AT THE RIGHT HAND of THE MAJESTY ON HIGH, (4) having become so much better than the angels , as He has BY INHERITANCE OBTAINED a more excellent name than they. (5) For to which of the angels did He ever say: “YOU ARE MY SON, TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN YOU?”

Ephesians 4:8—To me, (Paul) who am less than the least of all the saints, this grace was given, that I should PREACH among THE GENTILES the UNSEARCHABLE RICHES of CHRIST, (9) and to make ALL PEOPLE see what is the fellowship of THE MYSTERY, which from the beginning of the ages has BEEN HIDDEN in GOD who CREATED ALL THINGS through JESUS CHRIST; (10) TO THE INTENT THAT NOW THE MANIFOLD WISDOM OF GOD MIGHT BE MADE KNOWN BY THE CHURCH TO THE PRINCIPALITIES AND POWERS IN THE HEAVENLY PLACES, (11) according to the ETERNAL PURPOSE which HE ACCOMPLISHED in Christ Jesus our Lord, (12) in whom WE HAVE BOLDNESS and ACCESS with CONFIDENCE through FAITH in Him. (17) that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you being rooted and grounded IN LOVE. (18) may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height—(19) TO KNOW THE LOVE OF CHRIST which PASSES KNOWLEDGE; that you may BE FILLED WITH ALL the FULLNESS of GOD. (20) Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that WE ASK or THINK, ACCORDING TO THE POWER that WORKS IN US, (21) to Him BE GLORY in THE CHURCH by Christ Jesus THROUGHOUT ALL AGES, WORLD WITHOUT END. Amen.


Oh most Holy Father, You and You alone are the omnipotent God! (Isaiah 45:21—And there is no other God besides Me, A just God and a Savior; There is none besides Me. (22) Look to Me, and be saved, all you ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other.)

You are the Mighty God and we exalt You. (Exodus 15:2—The Lord is my strength and song. And He has become MY SALVATION; He is my God, and I will praise Him; My father’s God, and I will EXALT HIM. (3) The Lord IS A MAN of WAR; THE LORD is HIS NAME. Psalm 24:7—Lift up your heads, O you gates! And be lifted up, YOU EVERLASTING DOORS! And THE KING of GLORY shall come in. (8) WHO is THIS King of GLORY? The Lord STRONG and MIGHTY, The Lord MIGHTY in BATTLE. Luke 9:26—“For whoever is ashamed of Me and My word, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes IN HIS OWN GLORY, and in HIS FATHER’S, and of THE HOLY ANGELS. (27) “But I tell you TRULY, there are some standing here who shall not taste death TILL THEY SEE THE KINGDOM of GOD.” John 7:16—Jesus answered them and said, “My doctrine is not Mine, but His who SENT Me. (17) “if anyone wants to do HIS WILL, he shall know concerning THE DOCTRINE, whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority. (18) He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but He who SEEKS the GLORY of the ONE who SENT Him is true, and NO UNRIGHTEOUSNESS is in Him. John 17:1—Father, THE HOUR has COME. GLORIFY Your Son, that Your Son may also GLORIFY YOU. (2) “as You have GIVEN Him AUTHORITY over ALL FLESH, that He should give eternal life TO AS MANY (all) as You have give Him. (3) And THIS is eternal life, that THEY MAY KNOW YOU, the ONLY TRUE GOD, and JESUS CHRIST whom YOU HAVE SENT. Mark 28:18—Then Jesus came and spoke to them saying, “ALL AUTHORITY has BEEN GIVEN to Me in heaven AND on EARTH. (19) “Go therefore and make disciples of ALL THE NATIONS, baptizing them in the name of THE FATHER and of THE SON and of THE HOLY SPIRIT, (20) “teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded You; and lo, I AM WITH YOU ALWAY, even unto THE END OF THE WORLD. (KJV)

Praise God! Here, we are NOW, no longer FALLING SHORT of THE GLORY of GOD. Romans 3:23—for all have sinned and FALL SHORT of THE GLORY of GOD, (24) being JUSTIFIED FREELY by HIS GRACE through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, (25) whom God set forth to be a PROPITIATION by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, because in His forbearance GOD HAD PASSED OVER the SINS THAT were PREVIOUSLY COMMITTED, (26) to demonstrate at the present time HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. (27) Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what Law? Of works? No, but by THE LAW of FAITH. Romans 4:13—For the promise that he would be THE HEIR of THE WORLD was not to Abraham or to his seed through the law, but through THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of FAITH. Galatians 3:29—And if you are Christ’s THEN you are Abraham’s seed, and HEIRS according to THE PROMISE.

You are King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Take up Your scepter and reign in righteousness. (Psalm 45:6—Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A SCEPTER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is THE SCEPTER of YOUR KINGDOM. (7) You LOVE RIGHTEOUSNESS and hate wickedness; Therefore God, Your God, HAS ANOINTED YOU with the OIL of GLADNESS more than Your companions. Isaiah 45:5—I am the Lord, and there is no other; There is no God besides Me. I will gird you, though you have not known Me, (6) That they may know from the rising of the sun to its setting that there is none besides Me. I am the Lord, and there is no other. (7) I form the light and create calamity; I, the lord, do all these things. (8) “RAIN DOWN, you heavens from above, and let the skies pour down RIGHTEOUSNESS; let the earth open, let them bring forth SALVATION, and let RIGHTEOUSNESS spring up together. I, the Lord have created it. Hosea 11:12—Sow for yourselves RIGHTEOUSNESS; reap IN MERCY: Break up your fallow ground, for it is time TO SEEK THE LORD, TILL HE COMES and RAINS RIGHTEOUSNESS on you. Isaiah 51:1—Listen to Me, you who FOLLOW AFTER RIGHTEOUSNESS, You WHO SEEK the LORD: Look to the rock from which you were hewn, and to the hole of the pit from which you were dug. (2) Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah who bore you: For I called him alone, and blessed him and increased him. (3) For the Lord will comfort ZION, He will comfort all her waste places; He will make HER WILDERNESS LIKE EDEN, and her desert LIKE THE GARDEN of THE LORD;

Pour out Your Spirit upon all flesh, and send Your Spirit to convict the world of sin and of righteousness. (John 16:8—“And when He (the Helper) has come, HE WILL CONVICT THE WORLD of SIN and of RIGHTEOUSNESS, and of JUDGMENT: (9) “of SIN, because they do not believe in Me; (10) of RIGHTEOUSNESS because I go to My Father and you see Me no more;

1 John 3:10—IN THIS the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: WHOEVER DOES NOT PRACTICE RIGHTEOUSNESS is NOT OF GOD, nor is he WHO DOES NOT LOVE his BROTHER. (11) For this is the message that you heard from the beginning, THAT WE SHOULD LOVE ONE ANOTHER. (7) Little children, let no one DECEIVE YOU. He who practices RIGHTEOUSNESS is RIGHTEOUS, just as He is righteous. (8) He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. FOR THIS PURPOSE the Son of God was MANIFESTED, that HE MIGHT DESTROY THE WORKS of THE DEVIL.

1 John 2:1—My little children, these things I write to you, that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ THE RIGHTEOUS. (2) And He Himself is THE PROPITATION for our sins, and not for ours only but ALSO for THE WHOLE WORLD. 1 John 4:7—Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves IS BORN of GOD and KNOWS GOD. (8) He who does not love does not know God, for GOD is LOVE. (9) IN THIS the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has SENT HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON into THE WORLD, that we might live THROUGH HIM. (10) In this is love, NOT THAT WE LOVED GOD, but that HE LOVED US and SENT HIS SON to be THE PROPITIATION for our sins. (11) Beloved, if God SO LOVED US, we also OUGHT to LOVE ONE ANOTHER. (12) No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, GOD ABIDES IN US, and HIS LOVE has been perfected IN US. (13) BY THIS we know THAT WE ABIDE IN HIM and HE IN US, BECAUSE HE HAS GIVEN US of HIS SPIRIT. (14) And we have seen and testify that THE FATHER has SENT THE SON AS SAVIOR OF THE WORLD. 1 John 2:24—Therefore let that ABIDE IN YOU which you heard FROM THE BEGINNING. (1 John 2:7—Brethren, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you heard FROM THE BEGINNING. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning. (8) Again, a new commandment I write to you, which thing IS TRUE IN HIM and IN YOU, because THE DARKNESS is PASSING AWAY, and THE TRUE LIGHT is ALREADY SHINING. (9) He who says he is in THE LIGHT, and HATES is brother, IS IN DARKNESS until now. (10) He who LOVES his brother ABIDES in THE LIGHT, and there is NO CAUSE for STUMBLING in him, (11) But he who hates his brother IS IN DARKNESS and WALKS IN DARKNESS, and does not know where he is going, BECAUSE the DARKNESS has BLINDED his eyes.

James 2:8—If you really fulfill THE ROYAL LAW according to the Scripture, “YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF,” YOU DO WELL: (9) but if you show partiality, (Between you and your neighbor.) you COMMIT SIN, and are CONVICTED by the law AS TRANSGRESSORS. (10) For whoever shall keep the whole law, and YET STUMBLE in ONE POINT, HE IS GUILTY of ALL. (13) For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. MERCY TRIUMPHS over JUDGMENT.

Returning to John 16:8—And when He (the Helper) has come, He will convict the world of SIN, and of RIGHTEOUSNESS, and of JUDGMENT. (11) “of JUDGMENT, because THE RULER of THIS WORLD is JUDGED.) Luke 10:17—Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord EVEN the DEMONS are SUBJECT to US in YOUR NAME.” (18) And He said to them, “I SAW SATAN FALL like LIGHTNING from HEAVEN. (19) “Behold, I GIVE YOU THE AUTHORITY to TRAMPLE on SERPENTS and SCORPIONS, AND OVER ALL the POWER of THE ENEMY, and NOTHING shall by any means HURT YOU. (20) “Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that THE SPIRITS are SUBJECT to YOU, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.” (21) In THAT HOUR JESUS REJOICED in THE SPIRIT and said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You HAVE HIDDEN THESE THINGS from THE WISE and PRUDENT and REVEALED them TO BABES. Even, so Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight! (22) ALL THINGS HAVE BEEN DELIVERED to ME BY MY FATHER, and no one knows who the Son is but the Father, and who the Father is but the Son, AND THE ONE TO WHOM the SON WILLS to REVEAL HIM.” (23) And He turned to His disciples and said privately, “BLESSED ARE THE EYES WHICH SEE THE THINGS YOU SEE; (24) “for I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you see, and have not seen it, and to hear what you hear, and HAVE NOT HEARD IT.”

1Peter 1:10—Of THIS SALVATION the prophets have inquired and SEARCHED DILIGENTLY, who prophesied OF THE GRACE that would come to you, (11) searching what, or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ who WAS IN THEM was indicating when He testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ and THE GLORIES that would follow. (12) To them it was REVEALED that, not to themselves, BUT to US they were ministering the things which now have been reported to you through those who have preached THE GOSPEL to you BY THE HOLY SPIRIT sent from heaven—things which angels DESIRE to look into. (13) Therefore gird up the loins of your mind be sober, and REST your HOPE fully UPON the GRACE that is to be brought to you at THE REVELATION of JESUS CHRIST; (14) as OBEDIENT CHILDREN, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as IN YOUR IGNORANCE; (15) but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct. (17) and if you call on the Father, WHO WITHOUT PARTIALITY JUDGES according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves throughout the time of your sojourning here in fear; (18) Knowing that you were NOT REDEEMENED with CORRUPTIBLE THINGS, like silver or gold, FROM your AIMLESS CONDUCT RECEIVED BY TRADITION from your FATHERS, (19) but with the precious blood of Christ, as of A LAMB without blemish and without spot. (20) He indeed was FOREORDAINED before THE FOUNDATION of THE WORLD, but was manifest in THESE LAST TIMES for YOU (21) Who through Him believe in God, WHO RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD and GAVE HIM GLORY, so that your FAITH and HOPE are IN GOD. (22) Since you have PURIFIED your souls in OBEYING the TRUTH through THE SPIRIT in SINCERE LOVE of the BRETHREN, love one another fervently with A PURE HEART, (23) HAVING BEEN BORN AGAIN, not of CORRUPTIBLE SEED but INCORRUPTIBLE, THROUGH THE WORD of GOD which lives and abide forever, (24) because “All flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls away, (25) But THE WORD of THE LORD ENDURES FOREVER, Now this is THE WORD which by THE GOSPEL was preached to you.
Isaiah 40:5—THE GLORY of THE LORD shall be REVEALED, and all flesh shall see it together; FOR THE MOUTH OF THE LORD has SPOKEN. (6) The voice said, “Cry out!” and he said, “What shall I cry?” all flesh is grass, and all its loveliness is like the flower of the field. (7) The grass withers, the flower fades, because the breath of the Lord blows upon it; surely the people are grass. (8) The grass withers, the flower fades, BUT THE WORD of OUR GOD stands FOREVER.” (9) O ZION, You who bring GOOD TIDINGS, get up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem, You who bring GOOD TIDINGS, lift up your voice with strength, lift it up, be not afraid: Say to the cities of Judah, “BEHOLD YOUR GOD!” (10) Behold, the Lord God shall come with a strong hand, and His arm shall rule for Him; Behold, His reward is with Him, AND HIS WORK BEFORE HIM.
John 5:36—“But I have a greater witness than John’s; FOR THE WORKS which the Father has GIVEN ME TO FINISH—THE VERY WORKS THAT I DO—BEAR WITNESS OF ME, that THE FATHER has SENT ME. John 10:37—“IF I DO NOT DO THE WORKS of MY FATHER, DO NOT BELIEVE ME; (38) “but IF I DO, though you do not believe Me, BELIEVE the WORKS, that YOU MAY KNOW and BELIEVE that the FATHER is IN ME, and I IN HIM.”
1 Chronicles 29:10—“Blessed are You, Lord God of Israel, Our Father, forever and ever. (11) YOURS, O LORD, is the GREATNESS, THE POWER and THE GLORY, THE VICTORY and THE MAJESTY; For all that is in heaven and in earth is Yours; YOURS IS THE KINGDOM, O LORD, and YOU ARE EXALTED as HEAD OVER ALL. (12) BOTH RICHES and HONOR come FROM YOU, and YOU REIGN OVER ALL. In Your hand is POWER and MIGHT; In Your hand IT IS TO MAKE GREAT and TO GIVE STRENGTH to ALL. (13) “Now therefore, Our God, We thank You and PRAISE Your GLORIOUS NAME. AMEN
O Most Glorious Holy Father, we praise and adore you. We applaud You, and say bravo! Bravo! Bravo! Now we ask if You will rend the heavens, and that You would come down to make Your name known to Your adversaries. That You would strengthen, and anoint Your Word and send it forth for salvation, and for the healing of the nations. That You would send it forth with great power to set the captives free, to bring the prisoners out of prison, and those who sit in darkness from the prison house. To break the bonds that hold us in bondage to whatever sin or vice that it may be. We ask that You come for a command performance, to put on, “The Greatest Show On Earth.” For Yours is the power and the glory, forever. AMEN!
Isaiah 64:1—Oh, that You would rend the heavens! That You would come down: (2)To make Your name known to Your adversaries, That the nations may tremble at Your presence! (3) When You did awesome things for which we did not look. (4) For since the beginning of the world men have not heard nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen any God besides You WHO ACTS for the one who waits for Him. (5) You meet him who rejoices and DOES RIGHTEOUSNESS, who REMEMBERS YOU in YOUR WAYS.
1 John 5:14--Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, THAT IF WE ASK ANYTHING ACCORDING TO HIS WILL, HE HEARS US. (15) AND IF WE KNOW THAT HE HEARS US, WHATEVER WE WE ASK, WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE THE PETITIONS THAT WE HAVE ASKED OF HIM.
