And do you remember God’s reply? He said, “No, I have 7,000 others who have never bowed down to Baal!”

For everything comes from him and exists by his power and is intended for his glory. All glory to him forever! Amen.

I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. 

Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.

So remove your dark deeds like dirty clothes, and put on the shining armor of right living.

Instead, clothe yourself with the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ. And don’t let yourself think about ways to indulge your evil desires.

Lord God my Father,

Keep me strong in your Truth so I may only worship you. Remove in me my desire to have my way and turn me to your plan so I may bring your glory to overwhelm my distorted truth. Keep my heart in your Love so you can use me to destroy evil in how I love others. Clean my desires so I only desire you.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
