Daily Prayer for August 7th, 2018
Good morning, God—thank You! 🙂
You test the heart of mankind and are pleased with integrity. You delight in people who are trustworthy. Make my heart pure, Holy Spirit…help me to be more peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit. Give me wisdom that comes from heaven, so that I handle Your word precisely. In Jesus name. Amen.
2 Timothy 2:15 New International Version (NIV)

James 3:17 New International Version (NIV)
17 But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.

but he delights in people who are trustworthy.
1 Chronicles 29:17 New International Version (NIV)
17 I know, my God, that you test the heart and are pleased with integrity. All these things I have given willingly and with honest intent. And now I have seen with joy how willingly your people who are here have given to you.
Proverbs 6:16-20 New International Version (NIV)
16 There are six things the Lord hates,
seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a false witness who pours out lies
and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.
