“I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind,

Even to give every man according to his ways,

According to the fruit of his doings”.

Jeremiah 17:10.

Oh LORD, our God, search our hearts. and test our minds. Allow nothing but Your good and acceptable and perfect will to shape our ways, and our thoughts, and every motive of our hearts.

Let us remain forever fruitful and steadfast in the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. For not only are You alone the Way, and the Truth, but You alone are the Life. And the ONLY life.

Permit that all that we do reflects well on Your good name and Your good example. So that, as in Hebrews 1:3, we too may be “the radiance of Your glory and the exact representation of Your being, sustaining all things by Your powerful word” — a living word that has, in all of us, likewise been made flesh too (John 1:14).

Decree that we shall be as honourable sons and wise daughters of the Most High Elyon. For "who can speak and have it happen if the Lord has not decreed it?" (Lamentations 3:37).

So decree it LORD. Speak Your command, then LORD. For the words that You speak are spirit, and they are life (John 6:64). And speak into spirit and into life that we are those who place all our hope and trust in the LORD. For is it not written that “Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, and whose hope is the LORD”?

And decree that we shall be like those whose roots are planted by the LIVING waters of Your Holy Spirit. Who without end or ceasing, dwell and abide in Your Holy Presence. Who are forever sustained and nourished by Your loving nature and Your gracious hand.

For hallowed IS Your name!!

Both ON our lips and IN our hearts!!

Which is as it should be!!

So that Thy kingdom may truly come. For is it not true that before Your kingdom can come, we need to first hallow Your name? And is it also not true that before Your will may be done on earth as it is in heaven, that Your kingdom needs to first come?

So search our hearts, LORD! And test our mind! That You may find in our hearts and minds that we truly hallow Your name! For is this not the key to the way and the truth and the life? That before Your kingdom can come in our hearts, we first need to hallow Your name in our hearts? And before Your will may be done on earth, Your kingdom needs to first come in our mind and hearts? Is “the way” then not to first hallow Your name? So that “the truth” of Your kingdom can then come alive in our hearts? And is “the life” then not when Your will is done on earth as it is in heaven? So that You may give to every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings?

Oh search our hearts and our minds O LORD!!

For Thine IS the kingdom!!

AND the power!!

AND the glory!!

Forever and ever!!

Amen and amen.
