Because The Days Are Evil



Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 

Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.

—Ephesians 5:15-17 (NIV)



Heavenly Father,


May I always choose the path of wisdom as I travel through these evil days.


Help me to examine how I live, so that I might be careful not to act foolishly, but live in the wisdom You give me through Your Word.

Help me not to miss any opportunity to do good for others when it is within my power to do so—so that others might see the transforming work that You have done in me, and give You the glory and honor that You deserve.
 
In the face of the evil that surrounds me, allow me to be a force for good in order to bring Your comfort, encouragement, strength, hope and love to others.

Help me to be that wise man who understands what the Lord’s will is and strives to live it out everyday.


May I always choose the path of wisdom as I travel through these evil days.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
