LIVING THE GOD FILLED LIFE !!!!!!!

LIVING THE GOD FILLED LIFE !!!!!
Be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. 
                                   (1 TIMOTHY 4:12)  

If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him (JAMES 1:5)


We should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world. 
            (TITUS 2:12) 


Help me to recognize the gifts and talents You have placed in me. Give me the ability to cultivate and develop these gifts for Your glory, O Lord. I pray that people will see You in me in every area of my life. In Jesus name I pray. AMEN.


Let me be an example of what to do when things go wrong, as well as when they go right. Help me to keep my cool and not become frustrated and lose my temper. If I do something that is wrong or offensive, let me be quick to repent. Help me to be peaceful, consistent, and faithful. Help me to walk in love at all times and to be quick to provide encouragment and inspiration to those with whom I speak.


Show me how to be sensitive to the needs of my friends and to be understanding of their feelings. I ask You for Your wisdom and discernment concerning all my decisions relating to my life. When I make a mistake, help me to be quick to ask for forgiveness.

 Lord, help me to glorify You in my role as a Christian. I desire to lead a godly life and to be an example to You in this world. Help me to have balance in my life, properly spending time with You, Lord, and time with family and friends.

BEING A PERSON OF PRAYER !!!!!!!!!!

BEING A PERSON OF PRAYER  !!!!
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. (ROMANS 8:26)

Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.     (MARK 11:24)

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need 
               (HEBREWS 4:16)

Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known unto God.
                           (PHILIPPIANS 4:6)

 Your Word says that the effectual, fervent prayer of the righteous avails much. Teach me to pray effectively. Show me how to pray with passion and fervor, so that my prayers do avail much. In Jesus name I pray. AMEN.

Use me, Lord, to pray for others. Help me to be sensitive to the voice of the Holy Spirit. Help me to be quick to obey the call to prayer whenever I sense Your direction to pray. Let prayer become so significant to me that it becomes my natural response to every situation in life.

Help me to not let the busyness of life rob me from the joy, privilege, and power of spending time with You in prayer. Put a desire in my heart to pray more and to make prayer a prominent part of my life. Show me how to establish certain times of the day to pray and seek Your wisdom. Let me not be distracted during my prayer time, but to be able to focus my thoughts, my heart, and my faith on You and your Word.

Father, You said that through prayer and supplication should let my requests be made known to You. You said to come boldly to Your throne room to receive grace and mercy. Your Word says that whatsoever things I desire when I pray, when I believe that I receive them, I shall have them. I desire to be a person of prayer.
