ABC's Prayer

Amazing father in heaven,
Be our bright morning star.
Calm our spirits through your Spirit.
Deliver us from evil.
Enter our life in a powerful way.
Forgive us Father for all of our sins. Great and holy is your name. Holiness is what we desire in You.
Indwell us with your Spirit in powerful ways for your glory.
Jesus our guide and savior visit us with your love and care.
Kindness is your way for us.
Let your love fill our hearts.
Make in us a new heart.
Never leave us or forsake us.
Order our days and by your hand may we grow into your likeness.
Provide us our daily bread and necessities.
Quite our doubts and fears and let it be replaced by faith and hope.
Remove the barriers between us Lord.
Save us by your mighty hand from the world and its ways.
Thank you for all of your goodness.
Understanding your will is what we seek. Help us understand.
Victory is all yours our God. we are victorious in you.
Wash us whiter than snow. Let our sins be remembered no more.
X ray our lives and reveal our inner faults
You are our great redeemer
Zeal is what we need. Help us to be zealous for you.
Amen

Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: and see if there be any wicked way in me.
—Psalm 139:23–24

Make your thoughts a clean sanctuary. To God, our thoughts are things. Our thoughts are the decorations inside the sanctuary where we live. If our thoughts are purified by the blood of Christ, we are living in a clean room no matter if we are wearing overalls covered with grease.
Your thoughts pretty much decide the mood and weather and climate inside your heart, and God considers your thoughts as part of you.
Thoughts of peace, thoughts of pity, thoughts of mercy, thoughts of kindness, thoughts of charity, thoughts of God, thoughts of the Son of God—these are pure things, good things, and high things.
Therefore, if you would cultivate the Spirit’s acquaintance, you must get hold of your thoughts and not allow your mind to be a wilderness in which every kind of unclean beast roams and bird flies. You must have a clean heart.

Just because we make much of our worship, doesn't mean God does. I've heard such things as God is happy with any or all the worship we give. I don't agree with this. In the Old Testament God is not pleased with much of the worship and sacrifices the Israelites were offering. I think the true worship of God that pleases the Divine has been stripped of the frivolousness of internal and external falsehood. There is a self giving recklessness that marks true worship. It is bare and beautiful, raw and revealing and can be experienced by creature with creator, but is missed by much of the modern persona. It is missed by the modern persona because so much of what the world has engrained in us is a misshapen vessel that hinders our true unfettered worship. it is misshapen because it can not receive nor pour forth the way it ought. It is like a clogged pipe full of debris that doesn't need cleaned, but needs replaced.

Our Story

This page was created to help others connect to our discipleship ministries, receive instruction, advice, answer questions, and link teaching videos and resources to those who desire to go deeper in their Christian walk.

Discipleship is a daily walk, one size doesn’t fit all, and it is essential for us to engage in if we are ever to become the people who live, love, and learn to engage the world for Jesus.

Stepping Stones Discipleship came out of an inspired prayer session I (Anthony Perry) had with God that was based upon a statement made by William Bradford a leader of the pilgrims.
