A Scripture and a Prayer: “Living By Faith In Christ”

“I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.” (Galatians 2:20)

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, please help us live our lives in You, and no longer in this world. Help us, Lord, to have the faith to believe and the courage of that faith to move forward into what may look like to us as something impossible. Help us be like Joshua whom You commanded to be strong and courageous and move forward into Your Promised Land, into Your promises, not only for ourselves, but for Your people, the church. And finally, help us to die to ourselves and our desires, and to live for You and for You alone. And this I ask in Your name Lord Jesus. AMEN
