Into His Image – Prayer

Lord, You are so kind. How You think, how You love, all of Your ways are deeper, higher and wiser than anything we could ever think or feel.

Being made into Your image is our primary goal as it brings us into constant fellowship with You, it brings us closer to You.

God, Your Word says only Your restoring grace can redeem us towards being more and more Christ-like, displaying Your character to others. Father, help me to show the love of Christ everywhere I go.

Forgive me in times of anger when I did or said things that were not pleasing to You. I need You more and more. In my daily walk, Holy Sprit, help me to humbly zoom out, to see every moment as an opportunity to display the Fruit of the Spirit – love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23).

I confidently ask and pray these promises of Your Holy Word. Amen.

And to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another. Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, and give no opportunity to the devil. Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in need. Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

Ephesians 4:24-32
