Adonai, I am abiding in Your Word -- holding fast to Your teachings and living in accordance to them. It is my desire to be Your disciple. I am abiding in (virtually united to) the Vine. I cannot bear fruit unless I abide in You. Adonai, because You are the Vine and I am a branch living in You, I be abundant fruit. Apart from You, (cut off from a vital union with You), I can do nothing. Yeshua said: “(If you live in Me, and My Words remain in you, and continue to live in your hearts, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.” -- John, 15:17 (AMP). When I bear much fruit, You Abba, are honoured and glorified. By Your Grace that I have received, I will show and prove myself to be a true follower of Your Son, Yeshua. He Loves me, just as You Abba, Love Him. I am abiding in that love. Adonai, You have assured me that if I keep Your Commandments -- if I continue to obey your instructions -- I will abide in Your Love and live in it, just as Yeshua obeyed Your Commandments and lived in Your Love. He told me these things, that Your joy, and delight may be in me and that my joy and gladness may be of full measure and complete and overflowing. This is Your Commandment, that we love one another, just as You love us. Abba, thank You for Your Word -- it is the Truth that makes me free. I am born of You Adonai, and I do not deliberately, knowingly and habitually, practise sin. Your Nature abides in me, and I cannot practise sinning because I am born of You. I have hidden Your Word in my heart that I may not sin against You. May Moshiach through my faith, for ever dwell in my heart. Is my desire to be rooted deep in love and founded security on love, that I may have power be and be strong to apprehend and grasp with all the believers and devoted people, the experience of that love that is in breadth, length, height and depth of it. I pray in the Name of Yeshua, that I may know this love that surpasses knowledge -- that I may be filled to the measure of all Your fullness. Now to You Who is able to do immeasurable more than all I ask or imagine, according to Your power that is at work within me to You be glory in the all the universe and in Yeshua Moshiach through all generations forever and ever. Amen.
