Heavenly Father, I praise You for the truth of Your word, and thank You for those that You put in my path, to teach me the glorious gospel of Christ. I pray that I may grow in grace, walk in spirit and truth, mature in the faith and be ready and willing to tell others the hope that I have in You. Help me to be faithful in all I say and do, and give me opportunities to tell others about Jesus, and the joy of our salvation - in Whose name I pray, AMEN.
Heavenly Father, thank You for warning us of the devastation that unguarded words can have. Help me to keep my tongue under control, and may the words that I speak and the meditation of my heart be always acceptable to You - my God and my Saviour - in Jesus name I pray, AMEN.
Heavenly Father, thank You for our heavenly example of how to live on earth to Your praise and glory. I pray that I may reflect the Lord Jesus in all wisdom and understanding and that genuine humility and gentleness of heart may become the hallmark of my life to Your praise and glory - this I ask in Jesus name, AMEN.
Heavenly Father, thank You for the epistle of James and its thought provoking content. May we reflect our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, Who is the personification of godly wisdom and our perfect, representative Man. Thank You that in Christ we have a living example of what a life that is walking in spirit and truth should be. May we die to self and live to Christ so that we may say - the life that I now live in the flesh is not I.. but CHRIST - to His praise and glory.
Heavenly Father, thank You that Jesus is the power of God and the wisdom of God and that in Him we have all we need for purity of heart and cleanliness in thought, word and deed. Prevent us from allowing the influence of this fallen world system to permeate our heart and mind, and may we keep our focus on the Lord Jesus alone. This we ask in Jesus' holy name, AMEN.
Loving Father, I pray that my life will be one that demonstrates the wisdom from above as I show forth Your life in me, in Jesus name I pray, AMEN.
