Matthew 5:44
But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.
This can be one of the hardest things to do in life. To pray for people who feel like your enemy. Maybe they’re your neighbor, or a co-worker, or even someone in your family. Yet when you choose to pray, something incredible begins to happen. God softens your heart and helps you see them the way He does.

1 Chronicles 16:24
Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.
On this National Day of Prayer, what better thing to do than to lift your voice not just in prayer, but in praise? To go out into your day and tell others of the glory of God. All the amazing things He’s done, not just in your own life, but throughout the world!

Ephesians 6:18
Praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints.
Prayer is a necessary action for every believer. It’s what we’re called to do for ourselves, for the church, and especially for each other. God calls us to stay alert and keep praying, because prayer is one of the ways He works in hearts and changes lives.

Matthew 6:9-10
Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”
Isn’t it so comforting to know you don’t have to guess how to pray? Jesus made it clear when He showed His disciples. Start by talking to your Father, honor Him, bring Him your needs, and then ask for His will to be done.

Psalm 143:1
Hear my prayer, O Lord; give ear to my pleas for mercy! In your faithfulness answer me, in your righteousness!
David was in crisis. He was facing difficult circumstances, and he knew there was only one entity who could truly hear him and help him: God. And today you might also be facing difficult circumstances, why not follow his example and go straight to the One who hears you?

Hebrews 9:14
How much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God.
Every week you probably take your trash out and put it by the curb. Otherwise, before long, your house would start to stink. In the same way, your conscience needs to be cleansed too. Guilt, shame, and sin were never meant to sit inside of you and pile up. That’s why Jesus came. Not just to forgive you, but to wash you clean.
