Welcome to our 4th day of prayer as the people of Faith Lutheran Church. Our prayer theme for today is “Rededication of Our Lives to God.”
Our reading for today is from Romans 12, verses 1-2:
I appeal to you therefore, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God—what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Let’s pray together.
Offer a prayer thanking God that you have been claimed as a child of God in the waters of your baptism, and through the blood of the cross have been forgiven all your sins. (PAUSE)
Acknowledge before God the countless ways in which this world pulls you away from God and God’s will for your life and seeks to conform you to its way. Be specific about those areas in which the urge to conform is the strongest. (PAUSE)
Ask God to transform you so that your life might reflect God’s will, and that you might reflect God’s love to those around you. (PAUSE)
Amen. May God bless you and keep you in God’s grace.

Dear Father God, Thank you for claiming me as your own. Thank you for forgiving my sins by the blood of your Son, Jesus Christ. Every day I sin, every day I fail you. Help transform me so that my life reflects your will. Help me show your love to all the people I encounter all the days of my life. Amen
Pr Kerry, I welcome reading your devotions again. God bless you and keep you in His grace.
