Lord, grant us to believe
in the heart, to confess with the mouth, to confirm with works that the
covenant of God is in our flesh, so that others, seeing our good works, might
magnify our Father who is in heaven, through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom is
glory for ever and ever.

"...the covenant of God is in our flesh..." That is a very powerful image and statement.
