Intensify the spirit of self-discipline within us so that we are determined to establish sound spiritual boundaries in our lives to help guard and protect ourselves. Guide us to pursue what is good and pure and noble in your sight, so that we magnify you with our whole lives.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Jesus\u2019 name I pray.
