## Written prayer

With every breath that take today, I am in awe at the abuse You suffered on my behalf Jesus. When I was knee deep in my sin and far from You, You saw my face and You knew my name. As the nine tails whip ripped through Your flesh I am forever grateful that with each strip placed on Your body it represented the sin that You would free me from. I praise You because it is through Your pain and betrayal that I now live a life free from the chains and bondage of satan. When life begins to deal me hard blows let me look to You Jesus as the encouragement to my faith. Let me look to You Jesus to remind me that my pain and troubles are only momentary and that they pail in comparison to the glory that awaits me. Thank You for standing trial so that I can stand in my new life free from Satan and free from the sting of death.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
