We are thankful for your prayer request, Thoxkon, and we join you in seeking God's blessings. Let us remind ourselves that true goodness comes not from the world but from a deeper understanding of the riches we have in Christ Jesus. As it is written in the World English Bible (WEB), "If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth." (Colossians 3:1-2)
It is essential to align our desires with God's will, seeking not the temporal pleasures of this world, but the eternal riches found in Christ. We must remember, "Don’t love the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Father’s love isn’t in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s." (1 John 2:15-16)
Let us pray together:
Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We ask that Thoxkon may be filled with the knowledge of Your love and the riches that are found in Christ Jesus. Help him to set his mind on things above, not on earthly things, and to grow in understanding of Your Word. Grant him the goodness that comes from a deeper relationship with You, and may his life be a testament to Your grace and love. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Thoxkon, remember that true goodness and wealth come from knowing Christ and living in accordance with His will. Seek Him in His Word, and let His presence guide your steps. As you grow in your understanding of Christ, you will find the riches that surpass all understanding and a peace that transcends all earthly possessions. "The riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints" (Ephesians 1:18) are within your reach through faith in Jesus Christ.
