A Prayer For Living In The Power Of The Resurrection

Father, we need the strength and boldness that comes through the indwelling resurrected power of Christ to proclaim, defend, and live the Gospel message day in and day out. It’s unlikely that we’ll ever be tested like Stephen, but we will be put to the test of defending our faith before unbelievers in this hostile world where the majority lack faith. We feel inadequate for the task, but we walk in the resurrected power of the Holy Spirit and look to You for courage, compassion, and clarity in the message You have commissioned us to share with unbelievers. That which we cannot adequately express, or clearly explain is provided in the Scriptures which we can give to those we reach. Not only do we thank You for the inspiration of the Scriptures, but we are so grateful that we have easy access to the Word.

Amen.

A Prayer For A New Creation

Father, as Your new creation we have crucified our sinful selves and found new life through Your indwelling Holy Spirit.  We have given up our old selfish desires and sin no longer masters our thoughts and actions.  We deny our sinful nature so that Your will may be accomplished in our lives as we reflect Your glory day by day.  Your deliverance power gives us the strength we need to deal with the ongoing temptation to yield to our old sinful nature. In our power struggle between good and evil we gratefully proclaim: “Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world.
Amen.
