Day 5

“Don’t you yourselves know that you are God’s temple and that the Spirit of God lives in you?”

1 Corinthians 3:16

“And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever. He is the Spirit of truth. The world is unable to receive him or know him. But you do know him, because he remains with you and will be in you.”

John 14:16-17

Prayer:
Lord, I confess that I need freedom in my prayer life. I don’t come to your throne of grace boldly as often as I need to and as often as you invite me to come. I confess that I waver from believing that I’ve been set free and striving to earn your acceptance and approval. I confess that I trust you one minute with the things in my life and quickly lose trust and try to control things or do things in my own strength. I confess that I even have doubts about what I’ve prayed so far in our 40 days of prayer. I want to be a man/woman who seeks you, believes you and trusts you with my whole heart. But, I’m struggling to make this a reality. I need your help.

Father, thank you that your Spirit lives in me and is my helper. I need your Spirit to lead me into truth, empower me to walk in your truth and to overcome any obstacles in my prayer life. I invite the Spirit of God to anoint me to pray and do a work in my life over these 40 days of prayer that only He can do for Your glory. In Jesus’ name, amen.
