Today’s Prayer (11/29/2020)

Oh Lord, I pray that people will allow You to transform their lives. It only takes a person to humble themselves a little before You can do a mighty work in their lives. Too many people are satisfied with their own lives that this transformation is delayed. Often times it is even too late for people because they died while procrastinating their day of repentance. You wished to come in and dine with them, as You dine with me so often, but people are too busy in life to make time for You. Excuses start to arise when asked about their spiritual life outside of church. But in reality, if people were born again in the Spirit, this time for You would come naturally daily. Other things would also start to become less important as we give You our rightful time and space. You called us to abide in You, and this time with You we would begin to cherish each time it happens. Lord, the time I gave my heart to You is when I have become happier than ever before. I thought I could find happiness in pornography and the lusts of my flesh, but I was so wrong. It only led to guilt and shame, and a feeling of never being forgiven. Now I know that these feelings were of Satan, for he never wanted me to come to You in my confessions. He hoped that I would stay in my sins and begin to justify my sinful actions. Thankfully, I did pray. That day You came and rescued a lost soul. I had no way out of the darkness, but Your light came in and scattered it. I am set free because You continued to do a work in my life based on my daily prayers and time in Your Word. Thank You, Jesus. You are my Savior and my God. Your mercy endures forever. I love You. Amen.

Ephesians 2:8-10

Ephesians 2:8-10 (KJV)
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
