Eyes open to see freedom.

For none of those I first invited will get even the smallest taste of my banquet.’”

“Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, 19and I am no longer worthy of being called your son. Please take me on as a hired servant.”’

In the same way, when you obey me you should say, ‘We are unworthy servants who have simply done our duty.’”

The significance of his words was hidden from them, and they failed to grasp what he was talking about.

“All right, receive your sight! Your faith has healed you.”

Lord God my Father,
I want to follow but it is hard, I have sinned against you and held back acting on your desire. Help me to obey and look forward. The past drags on me, I want to be free. Open my eyes so I can see, give me faith that heals the self inflicted wounds. Remove my guilt. May this day only bring you glory.

Still stuck in me.

Guard against every kind of greed. Life is not measured by how much you own.”

Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and he will give you everything you need.

“Be dressed for service and keep your lamps burning,

But whenever he comes, he will reward the servants who are ready.

“And a servant who knows what the master wants, but isn’t prepared and doesn’t carry out those instructions, will be severely punished.

This dear woman, a daughter of Abraham, has been held in bondage by Satan for eighteen years. Isn’t it right that she be released,

Lord God my Father,
Hear my prayer, feel my heart. I am broken and stupid, I want to bring you honor but I struggle to do your will above mine. I know the truth but seem stuck in my way. Take from me the sin I carry and deliver me to a ruthless change of my way and deliver me to your way. Sin owns me and I am tired. You are all I need, remove my earthly desire and prepare my path free from the bondage of my past.

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen

Single focus faith.

But Jesus knew their thoughts.

I know this because I am under the authority of my superior officers, and I have authority over my soldiers. I only need to say, ‘Go,’ and they go, or ‘Come,’ and they come.

Jesus cured many people of their diseases, illnesses, and evil spirits, and he restored sight to many who were blind.

“Who touched me?” Jesus asked.
“Someone deliberately touched me, for I felt healing power go out from me.”

“You faithless and corrupt people! How long must I be with you and put up with you?”

“Anyone who puts a hand to the plow and then looks back is not fit for the Kingdom of God.”

Lord God my Father,
You know my thoughts, allow me to know them. You are my authority, help me to follow you wholeheartedly. Cure me from my own way and place your healing power on my sinful way. Give me faith only in you and keep me focused on you at all times.

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen

Who am I?

“Master,” Simon replied, “we worked hard all last night and didn’t catch a thing. But if you say so, I’ll let the nets down again.” 6And this time their nets were so full of fish they began to tear!

When Simon Peter realized what had happened, he fell to his knees before Jesus and said, “Oh, Lord, please leave me—I’m such a sinful man.”

But Jesus often withdrew to the wilderness for prayer.

Lord God my Father,
May I listen to you as to where to place my efforts. I wish to bring you glory but only fail at the smallest task. Allow my faith to be based on you, not my self image. May my energy come from you alone.

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen

Obedient

He was filled with wisdom, and God’s favor was on him.

Then he returned to Nazareth with them and was obedient to them.

Lord God my Father,
I pray for your wisdom and wish to be obedient only to you. Deliver me from my struggles and give me focus on your path. Allow the power you place in me to overcome my struggles and bring Peace to my soul.

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen

and he will cause those who are rebellious to accept the wisdom of the godly.”

You are blessed because you believed that the Lord would do what he said.”

For the Mighty One is holy,
and he has done great things for me.

Lord God my Father,
Create in me a spirit that honors you and is eager to follow you. I wish to obey you completely but still struggle. Your will be done in spite of temptation.

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen

To be pure in heart.

“I have sinned,” he declared, “for I have betrayed an innocent man.”
“What do we care?” they retorted. “That’s your problem.”

The leading priests picked up the coins. “It wouldn’t be right to put this money in the Temple treasury,” they said, “since it was payment for murder.”

And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

Lord God my Father,
Free will so often separates me from your will for me. I pray you work in me to build power over temptation and keep me in your will alone. Give me discernment to your truth and your power to resist sin.

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen

Strength against the tempter.

The Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

“Am I some dangerous revolutionary, that you come with swords and clubs to arrest me?

But even though they found many who agreed to give false witness, they could not use anyone’s testimony.

Lord God my Father,
Keep me from my sinful nature, keep me focused in your glory so the temper cannot get a grip on me.
May I be grounded in your truth.

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen

To only carry His message.

So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!”

Don’t team up with those who are unbelievers. How can righteousness be a partner with wickedness? How can light live with darkness?

Lord God my Father,
Use me to spread your message without my filter messing it up. Create in me a pure heart that carries your love and surrenders my issues to your care.

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen

Whole in my empty, filled completely with His truth.

When people commend themselves, it doesn’t count for much. The important thing is for the Lord to commend them.

“My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.”

And I will be grieved because many of you have not given up your old sins. You have not repented of your impurity, sexual immorality, and eagerness for lustful pleasure.

Be joyful. Grow to maturity. Encourage each other. Live in harmony and peace. Then the God of love and peace will be with you.

Lord God my father,
May I find all my value in you, you are all I need. I admit I struggle with the ways of this world and I wish to live completely in you. Help me to let go of my and surrender completely to your way so I may be strong by you alone.

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
