At just the right time Christ will be revealed from heaven by the blessed and only almighty God,

Lord God my Father,

Open my heart to only look for you, protect me from worldly distractions.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

May you always be filled with the fruit of your salvation—the righteous character produced in your life by Jesus Christ for this will bring much glory and praise to God.

Do everything without complaining and arguing, 15so that no one can criticize you.

I want to know Christ and experience the mighty power that raised him from the dead. I want to suffer with him, sharing in his death,

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.

Lord God my Father,

Help me to place my focus on your plan and trust it above my own knowledge. I find fear on my own, your plan is peace in my surrender to it. May I only see you in all challenges, trusting completely in your outcome.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with himself.

You used to live in sin, just like the rest of the world, obeying the devil—the commander of the powers in the unseen world. He is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God. 

Because of Christ and our faith in him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God’s presence.

Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful,

Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. 

Lord God my Father,

Keep my eyes focused on your essence which is everywhere, remove my focus from my way and reveal your desire. Give me boldness in your way and protect my thoughts. Open my eyes so I may recognize Satan and avoid his influence.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

It is bearing fruit everywhere by changing lives, just as it changed your lives from the day you first heard and understood the truth about God’s wonderful grace.

We ask God to give you complete knowledge of his will and to give you spiritual wisdom and understanding. 10Then the way you live will always honor and please the Lord, and your lives will produce every kind of good fruit. All the while, you will grow as you learn to know God better and better.

You have died with Christ, and he has set you free from the spiritual powers of this world. 

12Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. 13Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you.

Lord God my Father,

May I continue to seek you before myself, Open my heart to only carry your desire so I may produce your fruit. Release me from the ways of this world and allow me to just be a vine that produces your fruit. Transform me back to your original creation.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

For last night an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I serve stood beside me, 24and he said, ‘Don’t be afraid, Paul,

we want to hear what you believe, for the only thing we know about this movement is that it is denounced everywhere.

He welcomed all who visited him, 31boldly proclaiming the Kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ. And no one tried to stop him.

Lord God my Father,

Thank you for loving me even when I did not seek you. Now I ask you to open my heart to the Truth you wish me to be. Allow me to know you and protect me from deceit. Allow me to tell your truth in ways it is taken well by others.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

 ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is useless for you to fight against my will

Paul replied, “Whether quickly or not, I pray to God that both you and everyone here in this audience might become the same as I am, except for these chains.”

Lord God my Father,

Make clear the areas of my will that are not of your desire and be your love to those around me free of my past.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

If anyone suffers eternal death, it’s not my fault,

And I have been a constant example of how you can help those in need by working hard. 

When it was clear that we couldn’t persuade him, we gave up and said, “The Lord’s will be done.”

 saw Paul in the Temple and roused a mob against him. 

The God of our ancestors has chosen you to know his will and to see the Righteous One and hear him speak. 

Lord God my father,

Show me how to witness for you so all I meet will know you. Make me into your example of how to live for you. Protect me from slander. Use me to expose your plan.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

But if you have doubts about whether or not you should eat something, you are sinning if you go ahead and do it.

Now all glory to God, who is able to make you strong, just as my Good News says. 

Lord God my Father,

Make me sensitive to your plan and protect me from my sinful nature. May my actions bring you glory.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

19Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say,“I will take revenge;I will pay them back,”12:19 Deut 32:35.says the Lord.

Lord God my Father,

Help me to understand where I want to do your job and release me from that desire.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Those who are dominated by the sinful nature think about sinful things, but those who are controlled by the Holy Spirit think about things that please the Spirit. 6So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace. 7For the sinful nature is always hostile to God.

All day long I opened my arms to them,but they were disobedient and rebellious.”

Lord God my Father,

Again I plea for your purpose to overwhelm my desire. Make me into who you created me to be and use me for your Glory. Forgive me for the ways of my past and deliver me into your work this day.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
