By this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His commandments.
1 John 2:3 NASB1995

Holy God, gracious and loving Father. No greater love was ever shown to me than when You sent Your Son to die for me. What honor can I show Father, but to be obedient to Your word. My heart is overjoyed in abundant thankfulness for Your sacrifice Jesus. Because I want to know You deeply God, I will honor You by hiding Your word in my heart that I might not sin against You by being disobedient to Your commandments.
Jesus, just as You have shown obedience to the Father and abided in Him, I long to abide with You, God, by keeping Your commandments. Disclose Yourself to me Jesus as You have promised. Come and make Your abode in me Jesus with the Father. Bring honor to Yourself God through me to and for Your glory. Amen.

Philippians 3:10-11

Jul1

that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death; in order that I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
Philippians 3:10‭-‬11 NASB

God of yesterday, today and tomorrow. Eternal Lord and King. Powerful God over death and giver of the resurrected life found in Jesus. Glory, honor and praise be to You. I pray Lord to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you sent; for in Him is my eternal life established. Multiply in me the knowledge of You, God, and of Jesus, my Lord so that I count all things as lost in view of the surpassing value of knowing Jesus. Your divine power, has granted to me everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Jesus who called me by his own glory and excellence.
I pray I become united with You, Jesus, in the likeness of Your death so that I may also be in the likeness of Your resurrection. I have been crucified in You and I will one day know the power of Your resurrection. Jesus I pray to persevere, as You did, to suffer with You so that I may also be glorified with You.
Lord may I not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I will finish my course and the ministry which I received from You, to testify solemnly of the gospel of the grace of God. I had the sentence of death within myself so that I would not trust in myself but in You, God, who raises the dead. Hallelujah!! Praise God!!! I will carry about in my body the dying of my Savior, so that Your life, Jesus, may be manifested in my body for the sake of others and to Your glory! Amen.
John 17:3/2 Peter 1:2/Philippians 3:8/2 Peter 1:3/Galatians 2:20/Romans 6:5/Romans 8:17/Acts 20:25/2 Corinthians 1:92 Corinthians 4:10 NASB

🌹For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.

Return, Know, Press On

“Come, let us return to the Lord.
For He has torn us, but He will heal us; He has wounded us, but He will bandage us. — Hosea 6:1

‘See now that I, I am He, And there is no god besides Me; It is I who put to death and give life. I have wounded and it is I who heal, And there is no one who can deliver from My hand. — Deuteronomy 32:39

2 “He will revive us after two days;
He will raise us up on the third day,
That we may live before Him. — Hosea 6:2

For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for a lifetime; Weeping may last for the night, But a shout of joy comes in the morning. — Psalm 30:5

3 “So let us know, let us press on to know the Lord.
His going forth is as certain as the dawn;
And He will come to us like the rain,
Like the spring rain watering the earth.” — Hosea 6:3
