John Paul Jackson’s Declarative Prayer

I found this on the Streams Ministries website. Pray this with me each week. Pick a day (possibly Sunday) when you will have time to remember. It will renew our minds and cleanse our hearts over time.

My Father in Heaven:

* I will bear Your light to change the world.

* Your Kingdom will come; Your will will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.
* No one will meet me and not be changed, because no one can meet You and not be changed.
