To Distinguish Between What’s Interesting and What’s Important

Santifying Spirit,
Our days are filled with choices to make. Possibilities are endless. Without your guidance and direction, we pursue far too much that offers little more than entertainment value, not truly serving you, others, or ourselves in any meaningful way. Grant us the discernment to differentiate what is interesting and what is important. We are easily deceived into believing something is important simply because we’re interested in it. But when you enlighten us to compare what you consider important with what we consider important, the differences become glaringly obvious. Then, when we see the differences, give us the discipline to pursue more God things than just good things. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

To Enlighten Us with Your Word

Heavenly Father,
Sundays are sacred. When you gather your people around your Word, there your Spirit touches hearts and changes lives. The Bible is a gold mine, filled with treasures and truths that cannot be discovered anywhere else. Enlighten worshippers this morning by leading them to a new awareness or understanding from your Word. Grant them the child-like awe of discovering something fresh and new, while also reassuring them with what is already known and familiar. Deepen their love for your Word and drive them to search it eagerly, not just on Sundays, but daily. Enrich and equip your church through your Word today, and strengthen her stand on it so that she might continue to weather every attack from the evil one. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
