Yet preaching the Good News is not something I can boast about. I am compelled by God to do it.
Even though I am a free man with no master, I have become a slave to all people to bring many to Christ.
Lord God,
Use me so you see fit to. Allow me to be an example of your love alive in me so much that others are drawn to you thru me. Protect me from getting puffy in my faith and to surrender to all you wish from me.
In Jesus name,
Amen
Run from sexual sin! No other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does. For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body. 19Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, 20for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.
Father God,
I have sinned against you in how I maintain the temple you allowed me to use, May I truly surrender my body to your care and begin the restoration of it to your glory. I pray you will be my inspiration in all I do today to clean and begin the overhauling of it.
In Jesus name,
Amen
May he give you the power to accomplish all the good things your faith prompts you to do.
Lord God my Father,
I have sinned against you and need your forgiveness. Lord God may I surrender to your will and your will only. May I do what is pleasing to you and may my actions bring you glory. Lord God forgive my actions from the past or my inactions where I did now follow your prodding and allow me to become one with your purpose for my life.
In Jesus name,
Amen
for wherever we go we find people telling us about your faith in God.
Yet our God gave us the courage to declare his Good News to you boldly, in spite of great opposition.
God’s will is for you to be holy, so stay away from all sexual sin. 4Then each of you will control his own body and live in holiness and honor—5not in lustful passion like the pagans who do not know God and his ways.
Living Faith
Lord God may I allow you to have complete control of my body soul and mink\d. May I have a faith that pleases you, for you alone.
In Jesus name,
Amen
Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.
You are being fooled by those who deliberately twist the truth concerning Christ.
This false teaching is like a little yeast that spreads through the whole batch of dough! 10I am trusting the Lord to keep you from believing false teachings. God will judge that person, whoever he is, who has been confusing you.
As for me, may I never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because of that cross,
Lord Bod,
Be with me and direct my thoughts so I may not be deceived in this world. Lord God, Help me to live in your truth and to be in your favor.
In Jesus name,
Amen
Their loyalty is divided between God and the world, and they are unstable in everything they do.
Temptation comes from our own desires, which entice us and drag us away. 15These desires give birth to sinful actions. And when sin is allowed to grow, it gives birth to death.
“If the Lord wants us to, we will live and do this or that.” 16Otherwise you are boasting about your own pretentious plans, and all such boasting is evil.
17Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it.
Lord God,
Protect my thoughts, change my nature, help me to release my desire in this world and place it on you alone. Lord God, I am ready to do it your way, I have proved my way is filled with disaster and compromise. I am grateful for your word and ready to Hear you.
In Jesus name,
Amen
But while in deep distress, Manasseh sought the lord his God and sincerely humbled himself before the God of his ancestors. 13And when he prayed, the lord listened to him and was moved by his request. So the lord brought Manasseh back to Jerusalem and to his kingdom. Then Manasseh finally realized that the lord alone is God!
Lord God,
I have sinned, I have put other things before you in my life and I pray for our forgiveness, Lord God, grant me the wisdom and direction to cleanse my thoughts and the property you have allowed me to use while I am here on this earth. Lord God Grant me the focus in my thoughts to only see from your perspective and make simple work of doing your will.
In Jesus name,
Amen
2Even during this time of trouble, King Ahaz continued to reject the lord. 23He offered sacrifices to the gods of Damascus who had defeated him, for he said, “Since these gods helped the kings of Aram, they will help me, too, if I sacrifice to them.” But instead, they led to his ruin and the ruin of all Judah.
Then these Levites got right to work:
So the Temple of the lord was restored to service.
Lord God, My Father,
I have sinned against you in my care of your temple, I have allowed power other than you to rule in my life, greed, selfishness, arrogance, and vast many things of this world to come between a truly surrendered and humble relationship with you the father. Lord God, I surrender this to your care, Lord I pray for your forgiveness and give this all over for your care. Lord God, I release my desire to you and pray for a cleansing of this temple and a restoration of it to your glory. For on my won I am nothing and I seek your purpose for this life to serve you.
In Jesus name,
Amen
But when he had become powerful, he also became proud, which led to his downfall.
He sinned against the lord his God by entering the sanctuary of the lord’s Temple and personally burning incense on the incense altar.
King Jotham became powerful because he was careful to live in obedience to the lord his God.
Lord God,
you alone hold all things good. Lord God may I live under your authority alone. Father may I obey your desire and make it my own. May I delight in following you.
In Jesus name,
Amen
This is what God says: Why do you disobey the lord’s commands and keep yourselves from prospering? You have abandoned the lord, and now he has abandoned you!”
The way we obey and honor the Lord then turn on him continues to amaze me.
Lord God, May I earnestly seek you and never let my guard down ot be in a continual state of hunger for you. Lord God, It is the quiet place in my spirit that seeks to be your servant, Allow this quiet desire to be in charge of my life.
In Jesus name,
Amen
