Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your perfect example of faithfulness. Please help us to remember that You value faithfulness in the small things as well as the big. We need Your help in all things. Please help us to see our dishonesty and make corrections. Faithfulness honors You and we want to glorify Your name.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the instruction on our purpose in life. Please help us to connect with those who do not know Jesus as their Savior. We need Your help to interact with the unsaved through the challenges of life. Please send the Holy Spirit to prepare their hearts. Strengthen us to obey Your commands as we teach new disciples.
Thank You for being with us through all of this.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the many You have saved by faith in Jesus Christ. Please help us to seek the things above. We need Your help to put what is most important first. This earth has many distractions and we are prone to fall into what is not worth Your purpose for us. Thank You for the reminder that our lives are permanently a part of Christ’s. We praise You for Your wonderful gift of salvation.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
Dear Heavenly Father, this commandment seems difficult. You love perfectly. You send us the blessings of sunsets and special times with friends. You also allow challenges like health issues and human conflict. All of those are a part of Your love. We often think of love as the positives of a hug, a special gift, or a positive interaction. Sometimes we need to have a tough conversation or show someone how they are wrong. We often don’t know what love really looks like in this situation. Please guide our study of Your Word to learn more about how You love so we can imitate that.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
