Pray with me // Ore comigo



You sometimes don’t know how to pray, or feel like you are always praying the same thing over and over?

Let me help you with that. I have been trying to make a prayer with everything I read in the Bible. Yeah, it is possible, and it is really good. As you pray what it is written you are also declaring for yourself the truths and promises that God has made us. Let’s start.

 

Today I prayed 1 Peter 1 – 2:12.

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! You, O God, has caused me to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for me. In this, I rejoice, though now for a little while I have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of my faith may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

 

Though I have not seen You, O Lord, I love You, believe in You, and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of my faith, the salvation of my soul.

Therefore, my Lord, help me to prepare my mind for action and being sober-minded, set my hope fully on the grace that will be brought to me at the revelations of Jesus Christ.

 

Lord, I want to be an obedient child and don’t be conformed to the passions of my former ignorance, but Lord, I want to be holy in all my conduct, since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy”. Teach me, O Lord, to conduct myself with fear throughout my life on earth, because I know you ransomed me from the futile ways, with the precious blood of Jesus Christ, since the foundation of the world, and through Jesus. I believe in You my God.

Lord help me to purify my soul by my obedience to the truth for a sincere brotherly love; teach me, O Lord, to love my neighbor earnestly from a pure heart, since I have been born again not of perishable seed but imperishable, though living and abiding word of God.

Jesus, you have chosen me to be part of your holy nation, people for your own possession so  I may proclaim your excellencies; since you have called me out of the darkness into your marvelous light. I am, O God, part of your people, You had mercy on me.

 

Help me to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against my soul. Help me to keep my conduct among my friends and acquaintances honorable, so that when they speak against me, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.

 

Thank you for your word that teaches me so much every day. In Jesus’ name, I make this prayer today, my own prayer.

Amen.

 

 

Você às vezes não sabe orar ou sente que está sempre orando a mesma coisa indefinidamente?

Deixe-me ajudá-lo com isso. Tenho tentado fazer uma oração com tudo que leio na Bíblia. Sim, é possível e é muito bom. Ao orar o que está escrito, você também declara para si mesmo as verdades e promessas que Deus nos fez. Vamos começar.

 

Hoje eu orei 1 Pedro 1 - 2:12.

“Bendito seja o Deus e Pai de nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo! Ó Deus, o Senhor fez com que eu nascesse de novo para uma esperança viva por meio da ressurreição de Jesus Cristo dentre os mortos, para uma herança que é imperecível, imaculada e que não perde o valor, mantida no céu para mim. Nisto me regozijo, embora agora por algum tempo eu tenho sofrido várias provações, de modo que a comprovada autenticidade de minha fé possa resultar em louvor, glória e honra na revelação de Jesus Cristo.

 

Embora não tenha Te visto, ó Senhor, eu te amo, e creio em Ti, e alegro-me com uma alegria inexprimível e cheia de glória, obtendo o resultado da minha fé, a salvação da minha alma.

Portanto, O Senhor, me ajude a preparar a minha mente para ação; que eu esteja alerta e coloco toda a esperança na graça que me será dada quando Jesus Cristo for revelado.

 

Senhor, quero ser uma filha obediente e não me conformar com as paixões da minha ignorância anterior, mas Senhor, quero ser santa em toda a minha conduta, pois está escrito: “Sejam santos, porque eu sou Santo". Ensina-me, Senhor, a conduzir-me com temor durante toda a minha vida terrena, porque sei que me resgataste dos caminhos fúteis, com o precioso sangue de Jesus Cristo, desde a fundação do mundo e por meio de Jesus. Eu acredito em Ti meu Deus.

 

Senhor me ajude a purificar minha alma por minha obediência à verdade por um sincero amor fraterno; ensina-me, ó Senhor, a amar meu próximo sinceramente com um coração puro, visto que nasci de novo, não de uma semente perecível, mas imperecível, por meio da palavra de Deus, viva e permanente.

Jesus, tu me escolheste para fazer parte da tua santa nação, povo teu para que eu proclame as tuas excelências; já que você me chamou das trevas para a sua luz maravilhosa. Eu sou, ó Deus, parte do seu povo, o Senhor teve misericórdia de mim.

 

Ajuda-me a abster-me das paixões da carne, que guerreiam contra a minha alma. Ajude-me a manter honrada minha conduta entre meus amigos e conhecidos, para que, quando falarem contra mim, vejam suas boas ações e glorifiquem a Deus no dia da visitação.

 

Obrigado por sua palavra que tanto me ensina todos os dias. Em nome de Jesus, faço esta oração hoje, minha própria oração.

Amém.

Pointing finger // Apontar o dedo

Recently I was studying the Sermon on the mount in a bible study at the church. It was wonderful to meditate and go deep in these Jesus’ words. So many details we sometimes don’t realize. We are very quick to see the flaws and failures of others. But interestingly the things we see faster in others are probably the things we don’t see or won’t see in ourselves. It is easy to point a finger when someone is, for example, throwing trash on the streets, when one doesn’t even bother to do the same at home. In Brazil, we have this saying “blacksmith’s house, woodpecker.” Who are you to point a finger to anyone when you yourself cannot do better? Your sin is no smaller than his. Jesus said, “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? ( Matthew 7 :3). Look, sawdust is something small, and plank or log is something much bigger than sawdust. Sometimes we are able to see something very insignificant in othe...

Are you lost? // Você está perdido?

Você está perdido? There is always this time in life when we are certain about what to do with our lives. We have a goal, and an objective to reach. However, it is often that life turns the other way around and our plans are made nothing. Frequently I hear people say, “I am lost, I don’t know what to do!” That happens when we put our goals into something that changes. Everything in this world change. You and I are changing by the minute. My thoughts right now are running like crazy, and if I don’t set a goal in something that doesn’t change, I can’t do anything. What is it?   Jesus. The word of God. You might think I am crazy, and lunatic or even a fanatic. But who really knows me, know that I am none of those things. I am a very sensible person who has lived and experienced many things. And I don’t lie. So, if you are experiencing a sense of loss and despair, how about putting your hope in the One who cannot change whatsoever. If you lost...

Come and See + Judge correctly // Venha e Veja + Julgue corretamente

Venha e Veja   Two verses stood out for me this morning. John 7:17-18 and 7:24.   “ Anyone who chooses to do the will of God will find out whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own.   18  Whoever speaks on their own does so to gain personal glory, but he who seeks the glory of the one who sent him is a man of truth; there is nothing false about him.” John 7:24 “ Stop judging by mere appearances, but instead judge correctly.”   That was Jesus talking.  I lately heard that some people with vast knowledge of the Bible (we all want to believe) are being led astray through the vain doctrines of this world. Meaning, that some church leaders or people have earned the people's trust by telling them lies about the teachings of the Bible. People seek their own popularity by agreeing with the lies the world has offered them.  I have seen churches with flags and teaching doctrines that the Bible condemns. They have twisted the ...
