  • Sowing Seeds
    on July 11, 2025 at 7:00 am

    Galatians 6:6-10Dear Father, holy unscornable God,Don't let me be deceived, my God, for I know that no one can mock you with impunity. For whatever a person sows that is what the person will reap. Those who sow to the flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but those who sow to the Spirit will reap eternal life.I want to reap eternal life, Father. Help me always to sow to the Spirit!Help me never to tire of doing good, for in your own due season I will reap. Let me never lose heart, but, as I have opportunity, may I do good to all people, especially to my brothers and sisters in the household of faith.In the name of Jesus I ask all this and that you will give me a Spirit-filled life resulting in eternal victory!

  • Bearing Each Others' Burdens
    on July 10, 2025 at 7:00 am

    Galatians 6:1-5Dear Father, lifter of our heavy loads,Fill my heart with love for my brothers and sisters in Christ. If someone is overtaken in some misdeed, help me to assist in restoring that person, in a spirit of gentleness. Let me watch out for myself, lest I also be tempted.Help all of us to bear one another's overloads, and so fulfil the law of Christ. But help us not to deceive ourselves, thinking we are something when we are really nothing.Let each one of us test our own work, so that our reason for pride may be in what we do and not in what our neighbor does. Teach each of us to bear our own fair load.May we who are taught share all our good things with the person who teaches us.In the name of Jesus I ask all this and that you will give me a Spirit-filled life resulting in eternal victory!

  • The Fruit of the Spirit
    on July 9, 2025 at 7:00 am

    Galatians 5:22-26Dear Father, grower of spiritual fruit,Let the fruit of the Spirit blossom, mature, and ripen in my life: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these. Let me possess them!Since I belong to Christ, I have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Let me live by the Spirit. Let me walk by the Spirit!Let me show no self-conceit, give no provocation, have no envy toward anyone else. Let me live in, through, and for Christ Jesus, as he lives in, through, and for me and his whole church.In the name of Jesus I ask you to perfect us, whatever that may take, and give us the grace to endure your renovation process.

  • The Deeds of the Flesh
    on July 8, 2025 at 7:00 am

    Galatians 5:19-21Dear Father, opposer of all that is evil,Help me to stay away from those things which are clearly works of the flesh: immorality, impurity, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like.Help me heed your warning, given again and again, that people who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.In the name of Jesus I ask you to perfect us, whatever that may take, and give us the grace to endure your renovation process.

  • The Flesh Versus the Spirit
    on July 7, 2025 at 7:00 am

    Galatians 5:16-18Dear Father, giver of your Spirit,Help me to walk by the Spirit and not gratify the desires of my flesh. For the desires of my flesh are opposed to the desires of my spirit and to the desires of your Spirit for me. These things set up an opposition within me to keep me from doing what I want. But thank you for letting me know that if I live by the Spirit I do something different than just live by the rules of the law, that in fact I am not under law.In the name of Jesus I ask you to perfect us, whatever that may take, and give us the grace to endure your renovation process.
