Heavenly Father,
Lord, please help me to discern the lies of the enemy so that I do not give any credence to thoughts that are not in alignment with Your truth. Help me to examine my thoughts in light of Your Word at all times. In Psalm 26:2, we are instructed to ask “Examine me, O Lord, and prove me; try my mind and my heart.”
Father please try my mind and my heart and enable me to purify my thoughts and actions so that evil will not find a dwelling within. Overflow my mind and heart Father with Your love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. In Jesus’ precious name I pray. Amen.
The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. “Amen. I start my prayer today, perhaps I as I should start them all,
with the admission, right up front, that no matter what I pray for,
the intent of my heart should be ‘Amen’ to your will, ‘so be it.’”
