Prayer for Romans 7:7

“What should we say then? Is the law sin? Absolutely not! On the contrary, I would not have known sin if it were not for the law. For example, I would not have known what it is to covet if the law had not said, Do not covet.”

Praying through Romans 7:7

Heavenly Father, thank You for the carefully structured book of Romans, that so systematically sets out the sinfulness of man and Your gracious gift of salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord. Thank You for Paul’s clear teaching, that the Law is the tool to draw us to Yourself. The Law brings with it a knowledge of sin which points us all to Christ, the one and only Sacrifice for sin. Examine my heart and see if there is any sinful covetousness within and wash me clean, I pray. This I ask in Jesus' name, AMEN.
