A Prayer For Living Morally

Father, You who created us know what is best for us and thus we have the Scriptures as our guide and Your commands to teach us the paths of righteousness. Paul writes that each of us should live as a believer in whatever situation we find ourselves in, whether we are single, married, widowed, divorced, or a parent. Our behavior, attitude, and lifestyle should express the heart of Christ and reflect the kingdom of God. Help us to honor You and one another as we live out our daily lives in our troubled world where approval is sought from polling rather than the living and timeless Word of God. Help us not to be swayed by the decay of truth and purity in our day. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
