Morning Prayer
And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.
Inspiration
Our prayer life is crucial regarding our relationship with God! Conversing with God helps us discover more about His heart as He bestows wisdom upon us. His knowledge directs us with decision-making and restores us through our hardships. Prayer strengthens our faith as we continue to seek a relationship with God, and He will guide us as we study His Word. We will make prayer a priority in our daily routine and studies.
Prayer
Dear Lord, We come to You in prayer to strengthen our faith. We seek renewal and guidance as we continue walking with You. 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.
