6 If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and don’t tell the truth.

Give us grace to discern what sins we should confess and be cleansed from today8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we haven’t sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.Heavenly Father
Give us grace today to seek always what is good and right.1 My little children, I write these things to you so that you may not sin. If anyone sins, we have a Counsellor with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous. 2 And he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.
Heavenly Father
Give us grace today to live and walk just as Jesus did, following your commandments.3 This is how we know that we know him: if we keep his commandments.
4 One who says, “I know him,” and doesn’t keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth isn’t in him.
5 But God’s love has most certainly been perfected in whoever keeps his word. This is how we know that we are in him:
6 he who says he remains in him ought himself also to walk just like he walked.Heavenly Father
Give us grace today to be aware within ourselves of hate, and what leads to hate, and to turn away from it.7 Brothers, I write no new commandment to you,

but an old commandment which you had from the beginning.
The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning.
8 Again, I write a new commandment to you, which is true in him and in you;
because the darkness is passing away and the true light already shines.
9 He who says he is in the light and hates his...Heavenly Father

13 I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning.
I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one.
I write to you, little children, because you know the Father.
14 I have written to you, fathers, because you know him...Heavenly Father
Give us grace today to enjoy things in the world, but ensure that we seek first the kingdom of God.15 Don’t love the world or the things that are in the world.
If anyone loves the world, the Father’s love isn’t in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s.
17 The world is passing away with its lusts, but he who does God’s will remains forever.Heavenly Father
Give us grace today to be pro-Christ and to belong with those who are pro-Christ18 Little children, these are the end times,
and as you heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have arisen.
By this we know that it is the final hour.
19 They went out from us, but they didn’t belong to us;
for if they had belonged to us, they would have continued with us.
But they left, that they might be revealed that none of them belong to us.Heavenly Father
Give us grace today to be truthful20 You have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all have knowledge.
21 I have not written to you because you don’t know the truth,
but because you know it, and because no lie is of the truth.
22 Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ?
This is the Antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son.
23 Whoever denies the Son doesn’t have the Father.
He who confesses the Son has the Father also....
