“Don’t be afraid! Speak out! Don’t be silent! 10For I am with you, and no one will attack and harm you,
Paul said, “John’s baptism called for repentance from sin. But John himself told the people to believe in the one who would come later, meaning Jesus.”
But one time when they tried it, the evil spirit replied, “I know Jesus, and I know Paul, but who are you?”
the people were all shouting, some one thing and some another. Everything was in confusion. In fact, most of them didn’t even know why they were there.
Lord God my Father,
It is in you I find myself. Give me courage to speak your will and do your will. Protect me from the evil in this world and within me. Purify me so I may live by your grace, allow evil to know you are in me. Purify me from the confusion of this world.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
