And we are instructed to turn from godless living and sinful pleasures. We should live in this evil world with wisdom, righteousness, and devotion to God, while we look forward with hope to that wonderful day when the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will be revealed.—Titus 2:12-13 (NLT)
Heavenly Father,
Help me to live in this evil world in a way that brings glory to You—as I look forward with hope to that wonderful day when all of Christ’s glory will be revealed.
You have told me to turn
from godless living and sinful pleasures, and yet I must still live in this
world—which is full of godlessness and sin.
So, help me to stand
against the temptations of the world—by granting me the wisdom I need to correctly discern good from evil, the strength I need to make right and pure
choices, and the assurance of Your
love and goodness that I need to live a life that is devoted to You.
Help me to live
purposefully while I am here—as I use the gifts and talents that You have given
me to be a part of building Your Kingdom here on earth. And let me look forward with great hope and
anticipation to the day when my battles with temptation will end—when our great
God and Savior, Jesus Christ, comes again.
Help me to live in this evil world in a way that brings glory to You—as I look forward with hope to that wonderful day when all of Christ’s glory will be revealed.
In the name of Jesus,
Amen.
