Description

1 Blessed is the one

who does not walk in step with the wicked

or stand in the way that sinners take

or sit in the company of mockers,

2 but whose delight is in the law of the Lord,

and who meditates on his law day and night.

3 That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,

which yields its fruit in season

and whose leaf does not wither—

whatever they do prospers.

4 Not so the wicked!

They are like chaff

that the wind blows away.

5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,

nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

6 For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,

but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.

Psalm 1:1-6

My dear Lord Jesus Christ, I come to You today to be restored in You and renewed in You.

I now consecrate this year of life to You and You alone! You are my Lord in 2023!

I consecrate every aspect of my life and all of my living this year totally and completely to You. I yield my spirit, soul, body, my heart, mind and will to the life and leading of Your Holy Spirit.

Come Holy Spirit, fill me afresh every day this new year. I want to follow Your lead.

Jesus I receive all the work and triumph your life, death, resurrection ,ascension and current reign over my life. I am not my own. I have been bought with a price. Thank you for giving me my salvation identity.

I pray "Hallowed be Your name, Your kingdom come and Your will be done" over my life, over my family and over my church in 2023.

Jesus, I consecrate all of me to you and invite You to reign over every dimension of my life every day of this new year. I consecrate to you:

• my time and abilities

• my possessions, money, and influence

• my personality, sexuality and imagination

• my work, plans and ambitions,

• my loves, losses and worries

• and my brokenness, imperfections, disappointments and failures

My all day, every-day life is set apart and consecrated to You Jesus – flood my life with Your creative and renewing presence. Thank you for setting me apart as Yours.

I now bring the authority, rule and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ over all aspects of my life; and over all my arenas of influence this New Year. I come in Jesus name against Satan and His kingdom binding and banishing him and all forces of evil from my life, my family and my church this year in the powerful and victorious name of Jesus!

Amen
