Prayer
Heavenly Father,
I come before You today in awe of Your infinite holiness. You are pure, spotless, and beyond compare. I long to draw closer to You and to reflect Your holiness in my own life. Help me to create a heart that is sensitive to Your presence and open to Your touch.
Lord, guide my thoughts, words, and actions, that they may be pleasing to You. Teach me to walk in Your ways and to seek to be holy as You are holy. Remove any distractions or temptations that pull me away from Your light. Strengthen me to resist the pull of worldly desires and to focus on the treasures of Your kingdom.
Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, that I may grow in my understanding and practice of holiness. Let me be a vessel of Your love and grace, shining Your light into the world. May my life be a testament to Your glory, bringing others closer to You by the example I set.
I thank You, Lord, for Your unwavering mercy and the continuing work You perform within me. Renew my spirit daily and cleanse my heart so that I might serve You with integrity and a pure heart. Teach me to delight in Your commandments and to find joy in serving You in all that I do.
In Jesus’ name, I pray.
Amen.
