RETURNING TO THE WORD
Church should be about a group of Christ-followers surrendering all of their own pre-conceived ideas about what their church should look like and how it should behave, and instead looking to the Author of their faith, upon Whom the Church is founded.
“Why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I say?” (Luke 6:46).
We started this section of prayers to renew our confidence in God’s Word. Let’s close out this section by asking God to transform our minds according to His Word so that we might prove what is that good, acceptable, and perfect will of God concerning our church.
PRAY…
Lord, I love Your Word; I praise You for providing such a wonderful road map for life and living. You are my hiding place and my shield; from now on I wait for Your Word. I place my own thoughts and ideas in submission to Your Word. Sustain me according to Your Word, that I may live the life You designed for me, and in so doing be a part of a church family set upon the very same purpose. Uphold me by Your Word; strengthen my resolve to seek Your Word before the counsel of others, and then compel all of us together to obey whatever You say. We love You and Your Word. In Your Son’s Name, Amen.
