A Scripture and a Prayer: “It’s Time We Walked the Walk”

“He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.” (1 John 2:6)

Prayer:

Lord, in this world turned upside down and inside out, what a comfort it is to know You have set an example for us to live for You and Your Kingdom. To accomplish this, You gave us Your Son, Jesus, who not only came to seek and save the lost—us all—but also to teach us how to walk for You in this world. The Great Commission tells us to go and make disciples, and to Peter Jesus said, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” To be those disciples, Jesus shows us the way: “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.” So, Lord Jesus, help us to abide in You, and give us the strength to follow You so that we walk the walk and not just talk the talk. AMEN
