alive in god, dead to self

Romans 6

today god speaks to me about being dead to our old man and being alive in god.

we are under grace and not law.

i just sense in my heart that god is calling me to pray more and more. pray for the spirit man to arise in the loved ones around us.

pray that we will be alive in god and crucify the old man in us.

dear lord
i pray for puay hong josef deborah matthias, myself and family that we will arise in the spirit.

let us see you face to face that we may know you heart to heart and mind to mind.

empower us that we may no longer live according to the lust of our flesh but to the desires of your heart.

god consume us that we may be yours and yours alone.

for deborah i pray that she will submit her spirit to yours. teach her to depend on god for all things that she needs. let not her self suff be a stumbling block in her life.

for josef i thank you for the wisdom that you have poured into his life.i pray that you will let him konw you heart to heart. he is a sensitive boy. teach him to be sensitive to your spirit. i pray you will open his mouth and cause him to sing praises to you.

for matthias, i pray that his spirit will be tamed by god. let him be wild about jesus and be completely sold out to you lord.

i pray that from my family a generation of god fearing warriors will be raised up.

i pray for hong that he will have a broken and humble heart so that he may be used mightily by god.

change me dear lord that i may be like a trickling stream.

amen.
