Holy Spirit, draw us into a close, intimate relationship with You and Your Word above all else, so that we would not be easily fooled by the subtle lies of the enemy. Keep us from underestimating the cunningness of the enemy. Open our eyes to clearly see that his easiest and oldest trap is to twist Your Word. Keep us from engaging in discussions that make us question Your clear and concise instructions. (more…)
Lord, we thank You that You have ordained both work and rest. Remind us that they are both gifts. Help us to not take either of them for granted. Remind us especially that rest is holy and set apart unto You and that in neglecting rest, we neglect You. (more…)
Lord Jesus, we pray that we would look to You as an example as we live lives that are free from all impurity, immorality, and immoderation. May this freedom from sin extend to all aspects of our thoughts, words, and deeds. Help us to live with sacrificial love for You and for our neighbors, with thankfulness to our Father, and with light-filled lives lived by the power of the Holy Spirit. (more…)
