To Prioritize Growing in My Faith

Holy Spirit,
Prompt me to prioritize my spiritual growth. As with any growth or learning, spiritual growth doesn’t happen accidentally or unintentionally. If I don’t plan for time to read, study, and apply your Word, it’s rather foolish of me to assume I will grow in my faith. Guide me in sorting out my schedule so that I eliminate distractions and hindrances, including anything that may be harmless but not productive. Help me set up boundaries to protect my intentions to deepen my faith. Fill me with the necessary self-discipline to move forward in setting up and establishing these paths for pursuing your righteousness.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

To Love and Listen to Your Teaching

Patient Teacher,
While the Bible doesn’t reveal with certainty the details of your day on this day, Wednesday of Holy Week, we do know that yesterday, on Tuesday of Holy Week, you enlightened and taught others. When challenged by religious leaders, you seized the opportunity to correct and instruct. When you used parables to teach, you both convicted those who rejected you and comforted those who follow you in faith. 

Like Mary, busy Martha’s sister, lead me to spend more time at your feet, listening to your instruction and guidance in your Word. So often I allow myself to be too busy to learn from you and be blessed by your words. But your Word is life! Not only does the instruction from your Word provide the direction and wisdom I need for this life, but it also feeds my faith for eternal life. May a steady diet of law and gospel continue to sustain and sanctify me daily as you teach me through your Word. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
