To Cherish My Baptism

Gracious Father,
My baptism isn’t just an empty church ritual that happened to me some time ago in the past; rather, it is who I am. I am a baptized member of your family, adopted into an inheritance that will never perish, spoil, or fade. Therefore, my identity and sense of worth are not based on my successes or failures, but on all of the generous, gracious promises laid out for me in your Word. So, rather than ruminating on past regret or fixating on the future anxiously, I can always be at peace in the present, for my baptism assures me of where I stand before you: forgiven and treasured. By your Spirit, empower me today and every day to live confidently in my baptismal grace and to boldly walk in your steps, so that I reflect for others the joy of belonging to you. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

For the Security of My Salvation

Friend of Sinners,
You are the best thing that has ever happened to me. I have no greater treasure than you and the flood of blessings you have consistently lavished on me. I am grounded in the confidence that I am yours and that my eternity will be spent in your presence, all thanks to the perfect work of your life, death, and resurrection. My salvation is sure and certain! Leave these truths imprinted on my heart, so that my days are marked with joy and peace. Allow the reality of my future inheritance to carry me through every present impediment or inconvenience. Let the confidence of my permanent home in heaven spur me on to make the most of my temporary home and time here on earth.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
