Dear Heavenly Father, we often want people to think well of us. However, pleasing You should be our only thought. Please help us to study Your Word so we know what is pleasing to you. Please guide our understanding as we read and listen to the teaching of the Bible. We need Your help to guide our thinking to be more like Yours.
I pray in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
Dear Heavenly Father, please help us to grow in our knowledge of You so we can know how to identify arrogant obstacles. We need Your help to see clearly what goes against Your character. We know from Your Word that keeping thoughts captive not only brings obedience, but also freedom. Thank You for this great gift.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for this prayer Paul prayed for the believers at Philippi. Please help us to pray and live this for the sake of others. We need Your help to gain the knowledge and discernment to make the best choices. Please guide our study of Your instructions and our interaction with each other so we can praise and glorify You.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
Dear Heavenly Father, I want to take today to praise You. You have worth beyond what I can comprehend. You created everything and sustain all of it. You are amazing. Thank You for loving humanity despite our unworthiness. I praise Your name even more.
I praise this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
Dear Heavenly Father, we are often tired. Many times we take on the burden of the world instead of what You have offered. Please help us to learn the discipline that You teach us. Thank You for gently and humbly helping us in our weakness. We need Your rest.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
