Dear Lord,
I thank you for the promise in 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 that you will sanctify me completely and keep my whole spirit, soul, and body blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. I surrender myself to you, asking for your help in purifying my thoughts, emotions, and actions.
I pray that you will renew my mind, fill me with your wisdom and understanding, and guide me in all your ways. Help me to walk in obedience and faithfulness, trusting in your atoning sacrifice for my sins.
May your Holy Spirit work within me to transform me into the likeness of your Son, Jesus Christ. I trust in your faithfulness to complete the good work you have started in me, and I eagerly anticipate the day of Christ’s return when I will be made perfect in your presence.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
