Heavenly Father, thank You for this warning to eschew all that is evil and sinful from my life. Lord, I know that in my own strength, my fleshly works will be burned up like filthy rags in Your holy presence. But I thank You that there are good works for me to do which will stand the test of Your purifying fires when carried out in the power of Your Holy Spirit and through Your sufficient grace. May I live and work to Your praise and only do those things that are righteous in Your sight, for the honour of Your holy name. In Jesus' name, AMEN.
