Father,
We praise You for Your vigilant protection of Your kids and Your plan. We praise You for the way You work out justice through Your sovereignty. Only a sovereign God could make wickedness work for ultimate good. Only You can bend evil to serve You and bless Your kids.
Have mercy on me, a sinner. Like Ephraim, we’ve placed our identity in our strengths and giftings, and we repent. Some of us have found our identity in our weaknesses and sin patterns. We repent of that too. We repent of looking to anything but You as the source of our identity. Where we are too easy to offend, we repent of the arrogance underneath it all. Humble us and lay our pride to waste, God. We don’t want to be like Abimelech who destroyed his own home out of fear and greed.
Spirit, would you keep our hearts from being deceived about the things we worship? We don’t want to be like Gideon, whose heart grew proud. Keep us from distraction. Prompt us with conviction and direction, and point our eyes and hearts back to You, God.
We surrender our lives to You, Lord—every moment of our day, each decision we make, we yield our will and way to Your perfect will and way.
We love You too. Amen.
