A Scripture and a Prayer: “Jesus is My Surety”

“I know whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until that day.” (2 Timothy 1:12)

Prayer:

Lord, Your word makes it clear that it is by Your grace through faith in Jesus Christ that we have been saved, and in this may we fully believe. And Your promise is that when we by faith believe in Jesus that You will reward that faith, because it is that faith that pleases You the most. We also fully believe that You are a God of Your word and promises, as You said that all Your promises are true and can be trusted. It is with these assurances that we are fully convinced You are able to keep and guard us, our families, and Your people until You take us home in heaven to be with You. And it is this surety that we entrust my life to You. AMEN
