Matthew01
Beloved of All
Dear Heavenly Father,
Give us the wisdom to choose well, and the strength to say “no” when we should. The internet is one of the greatest temptations we face when it comes to guarding our minds. Sin is merely one click away. One peek, one look, one glance… and soon we’re drawn away by our lust. Satan knows what appeals to us most. Like a lion after his prey, he watches and waits until our guard is down before he attacks. Give us the strength to resist him, and the power to cast down the arguments that come with temptation. Help us to walk away from sin, making wise choices that are pleasing to You. Teach us to live as though Jesus was coming today. May the blessed hope of His return dictate our lives in such a way that we might stand before You, having done all to stand. Though we don’t know the day or the hour, but we do know that He comes like a thief in the night. And so we want to be ready. May we stand guard of our hearts and our home, as we prepare for the return of our Saviour and Lord. In the name of Jesus I pray. Amen.
