Morning Prayer
But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
Inspiration
God is willing to provide wisdom regarding the Word to anyone who asks. When we ask, we must do so with confidence that He is all-knowing and trustworthy. We cannot request His guidance if we do not genuinely believe. We must trust God; and no one else. In doing so, we will be ready to act on His words instead of doubting or seeking a second opinion from a friend.
Prayer
Dear God, we seek Your wisdom in our studies and daily activities. We trust You and no one else to guide us according to Your will. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
Night Prayer
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
Inspiration
We despise the thought of a pile of dirty dishes in the sink. The outside is easy to clean; it's the caked-up residue on the inside that's so difficult to remove. Jesus compares the scribes and Pharisees with dishes that have been wiped clean on the outside while dirty inside. The Pharisees took exceptional care of their outward appearance and neglected their inward spirits. We are guilty of allowing our hearts to be left filthy as well. We look and act as we should while our souls are full of darkness. We must continue to converse with the Holy Spirit daily and trust His guidance to cleanse our sinful nature.
Prayer
Dear God, Please forgive our sinful nature. We yearn for cleansing from within, so we are genuine witnesses to Your name. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
