Daily Prayer for Sept 25th, 2018
Good morning, God—thank You for this rainy day! :o)
Your two greatest commands are to love You and love others. Help me to love the way You love—through my new nature in Christ, never turning my back on anyone; turning only from evil to do good. Key is to first be right with You and operate from a Kingdom life, then I will experience and deep and abiding love for everyone. When, whatever I do, I do for You, then I’m not driven by a fallen nature. In Jesus name. Amen.
Matthew 22:36-40 New International Version (NIV)
36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”
37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
Ephesians 4:32 English Standard Version (ESV)
32 Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.
Proverbs 10:12 English Standard Version (ESV)
12 Hatred stirs up strife,
but love covers all offenses.
1 Corinthians 16:14 English Standard Version (ESV)
14 Let all that you do be done in love.
Psalm 34:14 New International Version (NIV)
14 Turn from evil and do good;
seek peace and pursue it.
