    Galatians 3:15-29Dear Father,Thank you, Father, for giving your holy law to Moses and for the role it played in bringing people to Christ.Thank you even more that Christ has come as our real teacher and that we have been delivered to him, that we might be justified by faith.Thank you for making us your sons through faith, for making it possible to put on Christ by our baptism into Christ.Thank you that in him there is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, but that we are all one in Christ.Thank you that by making us one with Christ you have made us to be Abraham's offspring, heirs according to the promise you made him.In the name of Jesus I offer my praise.

  • Heirs of Abraham
    on June 30, 2025 at 7:00 am

    Galatians 3:1-14Dear Father,Thank you for giving us your Spirit, not through works of law but through faith in our hearts. Even Abraham was saved by faith, for he believed you, and you counted it to him as righteousness.Thank you that Christ actually became the curse so that he could redeem us from its power, that the blessing of Abraham might come upon all nations, Jews and non-Jews, and that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.Make us ever aware of the responsibilities as well as the rights which this relationship affords us.In the name of Jesus I pray.

  • Alive to Righteousness
    on June 29, 2025 at 7:00 am

    Galatians 2:11-21Dear Father,Help us understand that in Christ we are dead to law; we have been crucified with Christ so that we might live unto you.Let Christ live within me. Let the life that I now live in the flesh be a life that I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.Don't ever let me believe anything, espouse anything, do anything that might nullify your grace or imply that Christ died in vain.Let me today, this day, and every day of my life, live from the power of Christ, live by the example of Christ, and live for the glory of Christ.In the name of Christ I pray.

  • Differences
    on June 28, 2025 at 7:00 am

    Galatians 2:11-21Dear Father, peacemaker among brethren,When good people within your church find themselves differing on issues, may we take comfort in knowing that even Peter and Paul had their differences.Help us, like them, follow a path of integrity, confronting each other in a spirit of love. Help us, like them, be willing to admit when we are wrong.We are human; we need your help, guidance, and grace to overcome our lack of goodness and good judgment.Instill within our hearts the truth that through the works of law no one will be justified, but rather through our faith in Jesus Christ.In the name of Christ I pray. Amen.Ⓒ 1996-2025 Heartlight, Inc. This material may not be reproduced in part or whole for commercial use without written consent.

  • Blessings of Faithfulness
    on June 27, 2025 at 7:00 am

    Galatians 1:16-2:10Dear Father,Today, Father, may the LORD Jesus meet us on our Damascus Road. May he disclose himself to us for who he is, the LORD of Glory. May he disclose to us the mission which he wants us to carry out as we seek to live for him. May we defend the purity of his gospel, that we are freely justified by his grace through faith apart from works of law. May we defend the liberty that your children have in Christ. May we never for one moment submit to programs of enslavement to try to prove our righteousness to others. And in all this may we remember the poor and care for them. Give us hearts of compassion for all who undergo privation and trouble.Thank you that even today we enjoy the blessings of the faithfulness shown by the apostle Paul at the beginning. Help us to be faithful, too, for the sake of those who will come after us.In the name of Jesus I ask. Amen.Ⓒ 1996-2025 Heartlight, Inc.
