Grow in God's Love Each Morning!

Word of God!!!

“Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will find it. What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father's glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what he has done. I tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom."”

**Matthew 16:24-28


Let us Pray:

'To Live Holy Lives'

Father, I'm praying for all in this world to have the self-control they need in every area of life...

Strengthen their hearts so we will be holy and blameless in Your presence when Christ comes. Help us make every effort to be good and knowledgeable, self-controlled and godly, relying on the Spirit's power within us.

May we imitate the Lord Jesus Christ in all we are and everything we do, and may the way we live match what we say we believe. May we make every effort to live clean and holy lives, devoting ourselves to You, to prayer, and to doing good.

May we desire more than anything else to follow You, setting our hearts and souls on seeking You. Help us move from strength to strength, faith to faith, and glory to glory. May our love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else.

In Jesus' name, amen.
