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.

Make Me Light in the Darkness

 

There is no judgment against anyone who believes in him. But anyone who does not believe in him has already been judged for not believing in God’s one and only Son. And the judgment is based on this fact: God’s light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil.

—John 3:18-19 (NLT)


 

 

Holy and Just, Merciful and Gracious God,

 

Thank You that there is no judgment against anyone who truly believes in Jesus Christ—no condemnation, nor any hint of rejection for those who have personally chosen to trust Him as their Savior and Lord!

Break my heart for those who have not yet trusted Christ as their Savior and Lord—for those who have decided to reject Him—for they are already judged and stand convicted for not believing and trusting in the only begotten Son of God—unless they change their minds.

Help me to see that those who have rejected Christ have been blinded to the Truth of the sentence against them—that they were indicted, judged, and sentenced, when they chose darkness over the Light of Christ, all because their actions were evil.

Make me a beacon of the Light and Love of Christ that You have placed within me—and let it burst forth from me, so that my reflection of Christ might pierce through even the deepest of darkness, and bring life and liberty to those who have been blinded by the darkness of the evil which has entangled them and condemned them to eternal death.

Thank You that there is no judgment against anyone who truly believes in Jesus Christ—no condemnation, nor any hint of rejection for those who have personally chosen to trust Him as their Savior and Lord!

In the name of Jesus, Amen.

Don't Let Your Faith Be Shipwrecked

 


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—as You teach me to willingly submit and obediently respond to every prompting of Your Holy Spirit within me.

Let 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 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 tell right from wrong, deny my belief in the power of Christ to protect and save me, and ultimately shipwreck my faith.

Help me always cling to my faith in Christ, so that as I submit my will to the tugging of the Holy Spirit at my heart, 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—as You teach me to willingly submit and obediently respond to every prompting of Your Holy Spirit within me.

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
