Jesus, The Great I Am Prayer Model
Jesus, The Great I Am He is the covenant keeping God, personally involved with us and is not only all powerful, but faithful to us, even when we are unfaithful. Let s thank Him for Exodus 6:3 that He has revealed Himself to us as God Almighty and we know him by his personal name the LORD.
Jesus, The Great I Am Now let s thank Jesus for being the image and reflection of God the Father and for Jesus being Divine; He was with God and is God, the Messiah, the Son of God from all eternity.
John 6:35 I Am The Bread of Life First we thank God the Father for being Yahweh Jireh, the God who sees what we have need of and sees to it that all our needs are provided.
John 6:35 I Am The Bread of Life Thank Jesus for being the Bread of Life. He is the provider. He is the manna that came down from heaven. Not only is there physical provision, Give us this day our daily bread, but more than that there is provision for our spirit and soul. He is the bread that gives us eternal life and He sustains us. He will satisfy all our hunger and thirst.
Thank Him that He has given to us eternal life now! Let s thank Him that he continues to give us all things that pertain to life and godliness. Thank Him that the Bread of Life is causing us to be partakers of His divine nature (2 Peter 1:3-11).
Thank Him that this Bread of Life is the supply of all the fruit of the Spirit I need in my life. Since Jesus is the Living Bread He personally and through His Word brings sanctification to my life.
Remember man doesnt live by bread (physical) alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God. Now let us pray that we will continue to feed on this Word daily. This Bread will give what we need to walk in faith, moral excellence, self-control, perseverance, godliness, kindness, and love.
John 8:12 I Am The Light of the World Jesus is what God is. He is light of the world, not just for some but for all; not just for the Jews but for all. Isaiah 60:1 Arise shine; for your light has come! And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you. There is darkness in this world, deep darkness but the LORD will arise over this world and His glory will be seen.
Isaiah 42:6 - Lets thank Him that He has given us light so we open blind eyes, and bring out prisoners from the prison, to bring people out of darkness. He is the LORD that is His Name. He personally has brought light into our lives and we are sharing that light. Our prayer is that we will walk in temperance and obedience and follow that light. Help me stay close to the light so I can see and not stray and stumble.
Thank Him that we have the light of life. Jesus is the revelation of God the Father. We have eternal life. Jesus help me to live in the light. Expose any darkness in me. Luke 11:36 - May there be no part dark! The whole body full of light, shining and giving light to those around me. John 14:30 when the enemy comes may he find nothing in me.
John 10:7, 9 I Am The Gate (Door) for the Sheep Let s thank Jesus for the Door, for being the doorkeeper. For being the Way, for being the Entrance. Not only the Entrance, but the protector as we live in this world.
Lets thank Jesus that can learn to discern His voice, that He calls us personally by our names. Thank Him that He leads us and is interested in us. As we live in this world we are NOT vulnerable because of the Shepherd s presence and guidance and protection. Jesus I thank you for standing at the entrance of my life and no thief can come in.
Let us pray that we will do nothing to remove ourselves from the enclosure or the wall around ourselves. When the thief comes, remember he comes to steal, kill and destroy. He will try to get in our lives any way he can. Please Jesus help me stay close to the doorkeeper. Run to Jesus when in danger. He is always there.
Remember the thief is not only the devil, but the thief may be (according to the parable of the sower), present in times of testing, persecution, worries, riches, pleasures, and anything that keeps us from living life to the fullest. Pray, Jesus, help us bring people to the Gate.
John 11,14 I Am The Good Shepherd Let s begin here by remembering God is good. Jesus is good. Also remember Psalm 23:1, The Lord is my shepherd . When danger comes, Jesus stays with us; He is willing to lay down His life for us.
He is the Good Shepherd, not only for Israel, but for all. John 10:16 and other sheep I have which are not of this fold. We are all part of one great big flock. We are part of different folds, but only one flock. We have the Jewish fold, the Gentile fold, the AG fold, the Baptist fold, but we are One flock.
Let us pray sincerely, may like the Good Shepherd I remember the value of the sheep. We are not hirelings. We are not working for monetary wages and run when it gets tough. May Holy Spirit fill our hearts with love for those in the fold of our care that are part of the big flock. May we like Jesus get to know the Father, and the Father get to know us - John 10:15.
John 11:25 I Am The Resurrection and the Life I am personally grateful for the Resurrection and the Life. I am grateful for the promised resurrection of loved ones (Jadon).
I am grateful that if I am alive when Jesus comes back I am going to be instantly with Jesus, however, I will not have the advantage over those who have gone before me. I Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
Lets thank Him for eternal life. Let s thank Him that death doesn t separate the believer from Him. Let s thank Him for our initial belief and that He helps us continue to believe. Let s thank Him that He is the resurrection and the life now. He has triumph over sin, Satan, and death.
Lets thank Him that every miracle we receive now is a token of what He is and shall continue to be in our life. I am becoming more grateful that this outer flesh is going to be changed at the Great Resurrection. May we pray today that we will not grow weary in our well doing, for we shall reap if we won t quit.
We pray that we will not become so preoccupied with this life we forget the Blessed Hope of the church. May I live knowing Jesus is coming soon, without delay, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye. May I remember the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night. May I live in holy conduct and godliness - 2 Peter 3:10-13.
John 14:6 I Am The Way, The Truth and The Life Just as the disciples were in need of encouragement because of the many things they did not understand, so today we ask for Jesus to be our great encourager. Let s thank Him that we do not have to be troubled, distressed, agitated, worried or upset.
We believe in God. We believe in Jesus. We have a hope of a place of eternity. Let s thank Him that not only did He come the first time but He is preparing a place for us now and He is going to take us there.
I thank Jesus for being the road that leads to the Father s house. He is my MapQuest. He is my GPS. He is the Truth so He never gives wrong directions, makes a mistake, or takes me somewhere that I don t want to go. Jesus is the Truth and guarantees light for our safe journey.
Thank Him that He is the Life; therefore I have the energy for this journey. Let s pray, Lord help me not the travel roads that lead to frustration, self-righteousness, or destruction - Matthew 7:13-14.
John 15:1,5 I Am The True Vine I am thankful to be connected to the True Vine; I am therefore productive. I am fruitful in the fruit of the Spirit -- love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self- control.
I am fruitful in reproduction of life as I invest it in others. I pray Lord to be a producing branch. I must have fruit on my branch to be of use. May I be willing to be pruned by Him that I might bear much fruit.
May I never be a branch that is cast away, good for nothing but the fire. I do not desire to be hindrance to the growth of the kingdom of God. My prayer is to continue to abide, staying connected to the Vine. Stay connected to Jesus.
May I allow the Sword of the Spirit, the Word of God, to prune me and make me more fruitful. Jesus uses the fruit of the vine to picture the blood of the New Covenant. May we allow the vinedresser to give close examination of my branch. I desire to be the branch that bears much fruit.
I AM the Bread of Life I AM the Light of the World I AM the Gate I AM the Good Shepherd I AM the Resurrection and the Life I AM the Way the Truth and the Life I AM the Vine
