Oh Lord, I pray that I and other Christians will continually heed Your every desire for our lives. Help us to put You first, that our ears may be open to hearing Your message. May our hearts be open to know You more. And may our feet be ready to go where You lead us. Our eyes are often closed off to Your desires but are wide open to what the world is offering. We jump at the next best thing to buy but stand still when You tell us to do something. I know that I am no different than other people when I am not seeking Your presence. But I have learned from the past that pleasure in the moment is not worth it, especially if I am found sinning against my great God. Yes, Lord, You are great and I respect You. You are with me now and I pray that I will never leave You again. I need Your presence with me at all times to be safe. The enemy is like a roaring lion, ready to take down as many people that come His way. Only You can stand forth and fight Him off. So build me up even more so than before in Your armor. His fiery darts will have no more impact upon me when I am found seeking Your hand instead. It is when I veer off the path that I find myself helpless as a deer. You are my God and my strength. Give me words to speak and enlighten me with Your wisdom. Guide my feet to where I need to go in this life. Help me to do what You have called me to do. If there are any more spiritual giftings that I have not gone after, bring them to my attention. I am Yours, God, and You are mine. I love You, Jesus. Amen.

Galatians 2:4-6 (KJV)
4 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:
5 To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
6 But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man’s person:) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me:
