Prayer: Father, thank You for bringing the trials that test our faith, as well as the consequences we face when we do not completely follow Your instructions. We need to take personal responsibility for our lives under Your rule. We should have no desire to make alliances with the world, so please help us guard our hearts and minds and remain in Your Word. May our influence of others be pleasing to you, Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
