Shipwrecked Faith

 


 

 

Cling to your faith in Christ, and keep your conscience clear. For some people have deliberately violated their consciences; as a result, their faith has been shipwrecked.

 

—1 Timothy 1:19 (NLT)





 

Heavenly Father,

 

Help me always cling to my faith in Christ and keep a clear conscience—unwilling to violate my conscience, unwilling to see my faith shipwrecked.
 

 

Help me truly believe that my faith in Jesus Christ alone is enough to save and deliver me through any circumstance and every situation in which I find myself—and help me listen to and obey Your Spirit, speaking through my conscience, as You show me the way that I should go. 

 

Help me be careful not to deliberately violate my conscience—because in doing so I harden my heart to the voice of Your Spirit, weaken my capacity to discern right from wrong, deny my belief in the power of Christ to protect and save me, and ultimately shipwreck my faith.

 

Help me always choose to submit my will to the tugging of the Holy Spirit at my heart, so my conscience will remain clear, and my faith will remain strong—and I can better represent my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, with my life.

 

Help me always cling to my faith in Christ and keep a clear conscience—unwilling to violate my conscience, unwilling to see my faith shipwrecked. 

 

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
