Daily Prayer: Day 226

From Simple Prayers, Day 226

I DRAW NEAR TO YOU, GOD

I am grateful to You, O God, for the blessing of your forgiveness. I thank You that in Christ, You set me free from the guilt of the past and give me hope for the future.

The refining pot is for silver and the furnace for gold,
But the Lord tests the hearts. (Proverbs 17:3)

You have set our iniquities before You,
Our secret sins in the light of Your presence. (Psalm 90:8)

Take a moment to ask the Spirit to search your heart and reveal any areas of unconfessed sin. Acknowledge these to the Lord and thank Him for His forgiveness.

THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE

I will recall to mind the former things, those of long ago; You are God, and there is no other; You are God, and there is none like You. (Isaiah 46:9)

The whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name from the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 3:14–15)

I LISTEN TO YOUR WORDS OF TRUTH

I was washed, I was sanctified, I was justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. (1 Corinthians 6:11)

MY RESPONSE TO YOU, LORD

We who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of those who are not strong, and not to please ourselves. Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up. (Romans 15:1–2)

No one should seek his own good, but the good of others. (1 Corinthians 10:24)

Lord, I thank You that there is none like You and that the whole family in heaven and earth derives its name from You. I thank You that I have been washed, sanctified, and justified in Christ, and I ask that I would consider the needs and best interests of others.
