The purpose of my instruction is that all believers would be filled with love that comes from a pure heart, a clear conscience, and genuine faith.

There is one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and humanity—the man Christ Jesus. 6He gave his life to purchase freedom for everyone.

In every place of worship, I want men to pray with holy hands lifted up to God, free from anger and controversy.

Now the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from the true faith; they will follow deceptive spirits and teachings that come from demons. 2These people are hypocrites and liars, and their consciences are dead.

For I am afraid that some of them have already gone astray and now follow Satan.

Lord God my Father,

Continue your work and help me see where I am interfering with your plan. Help me to accept the work I need to do to change my broken way. Help me to worship you as you desire so I can be free from fear. Keep me so close that I know when Satan is working on me, keep me clean.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
