Night Prayer
In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.
Inspiration
Job praised God, even when he was facing multiple hardships. Satan was dissatisfied with this outcome; he wanted Job to blame God and renounce His name. Satan enjoys creating struggles in our lives to try and separate us from our heavenly Father. His goal is to shake our faith by making us feel that God has forsaken us. We know God will never abandon us! We are His beloved children, and we will continue to praise His name during struggles.
Prayer
Dear Lord, we praise You in our storms. You will never abandon us, and we will not allow satan to persuade us differently. 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.
