Ten Big, Daily Reminders (Matt Reagan)

Ten Big, Daily Reminders
by Matt Reagan
  1. God exists. 
  2. God loves you. 
  3. Jesus died for you, and the Father has now bound himself to give you only good things. 
  4. God sees you as perfect. 
  5. That is because of Jesus’ perfection, not yours. You deserve hell. 
  6. You will die. 
  7. You will live forever in the new heavens and the new earth. 
  8. For now, you are an exile on the earth. 
  9. Nothing on earth is truly worth putting your hope in. 
  10. You have no right to be unhappy.

PRAYER 

Father, in heaven. 
You are mighty. You are sovereign. You exist. 
May you always be glorified. 
Father, how can we be saved if there is nothing good in us? 
We thank you for Jesus, Your Son. 
You have punished your own Son just do you can have us back. 
Though we have nothing in relation to you, You adopted us. 

Father, forgive us for our unbelief. Forgive our lack of faith. 
Forgive us of our constant and daily disobedience to you. 

Father, enable us with Your Spirit to know You more and more. 
May we be filled with gladness and thankfulness for all blessings and sufferings. 
Father, thank You for Your love, for disciplining us because we are yours; 
Molding us, shaping us, making us to become like Your Son, Jesus Christ. 

Father, how majestic You are. 
May you forever be glorified. 
Yours is Your kingdom, Your power, and Your glory. 

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
