Sept.15.06: Light for the Day - "May Jesus"    (Viet) (C) (S) (F)

-- 1 Timothy 2:1-6
1 I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers,
   intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone --
2 for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful
   and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.
3 This is good, and pleases God our Savior,
4 For He wants everyone to be saved and
   to come to a knowledge of the Truth.
5 For there is only One God and One Mediator who can reconcile
   God and men. He is the Man Christ Jesus.
6 He gave His Life to purchase freedom for everyone.
   This is the message that God gave to the world at the proper time.

-- Ephesians 3:14-21
14 When I think of the wisdom and scope of God’s plan,
      I fall to my knees and pray to the Father,
15 the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth.
16 I pray that from His glorious, unlimited resources
     He will give you mighty inner strength through His Holy Spirit.
17 And I pray that Christ will be more and more at home in your hearts
     as you trust in Him. May your roots go down deep into
     the soil of God’s marvelous Love.
18 And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should,
     how wide, how long, how high, and how deep His Love really is.
19 May you experience the Love of Christ, though it is so great you will
     never fully understand it. Then you will be filled with the fullness of life
     and power that comes from God.
20 Now glory be to God! By His mighty power at work within us, He is able
     to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope.
21 May He be given glory in the church and in Christ Jesus forever and
     ever through endless ages. Amen.

"May Jesus"

May the Lord Jehovah grant you
a sound body, spirit, mind,
May He show you what to press toward
and what to leave behind,
May His richest blessings seek you out
and chase you down the street ~ and
May Jesus be more real to you
than anyone you meet.

May the One who loves you, favor you
and crown your home with peace,
May He fill your heart with special hope
and faith that shall not cease,
May you learn to seek His refuge first
and worship at His feet ~ and
May Jesus be more real to you
than anyone you meet.

May you always strive to please Him,
seek His face before His hands,
May you hunger for His wisdom
that no mortal understands,
May He fill your rooms with love and joy
until they overflow ~ and
May Jesus be more real to you
than anyone you know.

May the things you lay your hands to
tend to prosper and succeed,
May it please Him to fulfill your dreams
and meet your every need,
May He satisfy your soul's desires
until you crave Him so ~ and
May Jesus be more near to you,
more clear to you,
more cheer to you...
May Jesus be more dear to you
than anyone you know.

-- 1 Thessalonians 5:23
   Now may the God of peace make you holy in every way,
   and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless
   until that day when our Lord Jesus Christ comes again.

-- Romans 15:5-7, 13, 33
5 May God, who gives this patience and encouragement,
   help you live in complete harmony with each other --
   each with the attitude of Christ Jesus toward the other.
6 Then all of you can join together with one voice,
   giving praise and glory to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7 So accept each other just as Christ has accepted you;
   then God will be glorified.

13 So I pray that God, who gives you hope, will keep you happy and
     full of peace as you believe in Him. May you overflow with hope
     through the power of the Holy Spirit.

33 And now may God, who gives us His Peace, be with you all. Amen.

   those good things that are produced in your life by Jesus Christ --
   for this will bring much glory and praise to God.

-- 1 Corinthians 1:3
   May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you
   His Grace and Peace.

-- Jude 1:2
   May you receive more and more of God’s mercy, peace, and love.

   Your salvation among all nations.

   May all the peoples praise You.
4 May the nations be glad and sing for joy, for You rule the peoples justly
   and guide the nations of the earth. <Selah>
