Today’s Prayer (07/27/2021)

Oh Lord, my God, and my King, I bow down before You. Humbly, do I seek Your hand, that Your wisdom will pour into my life. I’ve cast off all my pride at Your feet, that You may use me for Your kingdom. With you in my life, there is no more darkness but only light. So make Your presence known to me each and every day that I am alive. As You give me breath, lead me also in Your ways. Help me to not veer to the left or right of You, but continue walking straightway with You. With You on my side, I can do all things and not give in to temptation. I am amazed that Your grace is for me, after all I have done. You are so patient and forgiving. Though my sins were great in the past, You have wiped my slate clean. Wow! I don’t deserve Your mercy and grace, but still, You love me. Thank You! Though my life is short, I will serve You, Lord. Have Your way in my life. My whole desire is to hear Your voice and do as You say. As for what is happening this week, I know a hiking trip is coming up. And even in the woods, God, I pray that I will not be shy to share the gospel with people I meet. Especially with the family I am with will I open my mouth for Your sake. I love You, God. Amen.

1 Peter 5:5-8

1 Peter 5:5-8 (KJV)
5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.
