Romans 4:22-25

Dear Father, our Savior,

Thank you for Abraham's example of a faith credited as righteousness. And thank you that these words are written not only for Abraham's sake, but for ours as well - that faith will be credited as righteousness to those who believe in you, the God who raised from the dead Jesus our Lord, who was put to death for our misdeeds and was raised for our justification.

Thank you for so wonderful a salvation, precious God.

In the name of Jesus I ask this and by his authority I lift up my faith as the only thing I have to offer you. Amen.
