Loving Lord, I realise the importance of spiritual accountability in my own Christian life. I pray that You would raise up godly men and women of faith, who would keep me accountable. Help me not to balk at the thought of accountability, but rather to embrace it and learn all I can from the wise council of those that You place in my life. I pray that together we would grow in grace and obtain wisdom in time of need.
Lord I pray that You would provide me with someone, perhaps even a prayer partner, who I could pray with and enjoy fellowship with. May we build up a relationship that enables us to be transparent in our Christian walk. May we give each other guidance with sensitivity and maturity, for our mutual encouragement and reciprocal counsel.
Lord, I know that the enemy is prowling round as a roaring lion, seeking to devour all those that do not hold themselves accountable to You, leaving them vulnerable to his evil attacks and spiritual discouragement. Help me Lord, to be the person You would have me to be. Give me humility of heart and a spirit of grace as I seek to do only those things that are righteous and appropriate in Your sight. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
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 Jesus' name I pray, AMEN.
