    Galatians 2:11-21Dear Father, peacemaker among brethren,When good people within your church find themselves differing on issues, may we take comfort in knowing that even Peter and Paul had their differences.Help us, like them, follow a path of integrity, confronting each other in a spirit of love. Help us, like them, be willing to admit when we are wrong.We are human; we need your help, guidance, and grace to overcome our lack of goodness and good judgment.Instill within our hearts the truth that through the works of law no one will be justified, but rather through our faith in Jesus Christ.In the name of Christ I pray.

  • Blessings of Faithfulness
    on June 27, 2025 at 7:00 am

    Galatians 1:16-2:10Dear Father,Today, Father, may the LORD Jesus meet us on our Damascus Road. May he disclose himself to us for who he is, the LORD of Glory. May he disclose to us the mission which he wants us to carry out as we seek to live for him. May we defend the purity of his gospel, that we are freely justified by his grace through faith apart from works of law. May we defend the liberty that your children have in Christ. May we never for one moment submit to programs of enslavement to try to prove our righteousness to others. And in all this may we remember the poor and care for them. Give us hearts of compassion for all who undergo privation and trouble.Thank you that even today we enjoy the blessings of the faithfulness shown by the apostle Paul at the beginning. Help us to be faithful, too, for the sake of those who will come after us.In the name of Jesus I ask. Amen.Ⓒ 1996-2025 Heartlight, Inc.

  • Paul's Call
    on June 26, 2025 at 7:00 am

    Galatians 1:16-2:10Dear Father,Thank you for calling Saul of Tarsus to be your apostle to the non-Jews, and for making him known to us with his new name, Paul. Thank you for revealing to him that righteousness comes by your grace through faith without works of law and that we who are not Jews can become members of the household of faith without assuming the yoke of the law.Thank you for the integrity and courage Paul showed in defending this position in the early church. Thank you for his desire for unity with those who were apostles before him. Thank you also that he did not give in to those who wanted to limit the freedom of believers.Thank you that Peter, James, John, and the other apostles gave Paul and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that each should pursue his appointed missions - Paul and Barnabas to non-Jews, the others to the Jews. Thank you that they agreed to remember and help the poor.In the name of Jesus I give thanks. Amen.Ⓒ 1996-2025 Heartlight, Inc.

  • No Other Gospel
    on June 25, 2025 at 7:00 am

    Galatians 1:1-16Dear Father,Thank you that the revelation given through your apostles was not concocted by human minds. May I never turn to "another" gospel nor to a distortion of your gospel. May I never desert the grace of Christ and become accursed. And may I never seek the favor of men. I desire your favor. I want to be your servant, to please you and you alone.Grant that I may understand the revelation you gave through Paul - of salvation by grace through faith apart from works of law. In the complete turn-around in his life help me see the transforming power of your gospel.Thank you, Father, for the grace and peace that come through your Son, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins to deliver us from this evil age, according to your will. To you be glory for ever and ever.In the name of Jesus I pray. Amen.Ⓒ 1996-2025 Heartlight, Inc. This material may not be reproduced in part or whole for commercial use without written consent.

  • Self-examination
    on June 24, 2025 at 7:00 am

    2 Corinthians 13:5-14Dear Father, God of love and peace,Help me to examine myself, to test myself, to see whether I am holding to my faith. Help me to realize that Jesus Christ is in me - unless I should fail the test.Help me not to do anything wrong, to do nothing against the truth. Help me stand for Christ and for what is right and true.Let my life - my attitude and my deeds - show constant improvement. Help me mend my ways, agree with my fellow believers, and live in peace.May the grace of our LORD Jesus Christ rest upon me. May you, the God of love and peace, be near me. May the fellowship of your Holy Spirit surround me.In the name of Jesus. Amen.Ⓒ 1996-2025 Heartlight, Inc.
