YOU CAN PRAY WITH US …

1. Worship the LORD for His absolute knowledge and sovereign rule over everything. Praise Him, Father, Son and Holy Spirit for making known to us His love, wisdom and power, especially that we could be redeemed.

2. How have you lived as if planning or preparation are unnecessary? Confess your folly and pride to Jesus, trusting Him to forgive you and secure you by all that He guarantees — including eyes to see and ears to hear.

3. Give thanks to Jesus for His work to see ahead to all that we would need before the Father’s judgment seat and to do everything necessary to save us. Thank Him for the beauty of His sacrifice and generosity for our redemption.

4. Who do you know that lacks the ability to govern or discipline themselves, especially by the work of reason or foresight? Pray for them, asking the Lord to open their eyes to see their need and His grace to save them.

5. Ask the Holy Spirit to bear in you His fruit of love, patience, and self-control. Pray for his help for you to grow in prudence — self, and situational awareness, especially in light of everything Jesus has given us.
