Heavenly Father, thank You for laying out so clearly the principles and practices that should govern our lives as we die to self and live for God. Thank You for Your loving promise that You will answer everyone who asks, seeks, and knocks. Lord, at times I have tried to do things in my own strength, only to fail. Forgive me, Lord. Give me an understanding heart and the desire to live, work, and pray, in a manner that honours Your holy name. I praise and thank You that You are my sole Provider. May I pray according to Your will, seeking to grow in grace and in a knowledge of the Lord Jesus, and submitting to the leading and guidance of the Holy Spirit. This I ask in Jesus' name, AMEN.
