[SIZE=14pt]Let’s Pray:[/SIZE][SIZE=14pt] God I ask You in Jesus’ name, give my family, friends, the writer of this prayer, and myself a love to read, listen to, meditate on, and study Your Word. And as we spend time in Your Word have the Holy Spirit speak to our hearts, minds, and spirits through Your Word. Open our eyes, ears, and hearts to the process of observation (what does the passage say), interpretation (what does the passage mean), and application (how do the meaning of this passage apply to me, to my life).
Bless each of us to make it a habit of spending time with You daily in Your Word and prayer. Bless us to have joy, peace, and understanding as we allow Your Word to dwell within us richly. Bless us to be doers of Your Word. So that we will be blessed, have peace and joy in our lives, walk in excellence in our gifts and callings, and be a blessing to those whom You have called us to be a blessing to. Thank You Jesus for answering this prayer with a Yes, Amen, So Be It, And It Is So. [/SIZE]
