We're glad to come together and lift you up in prayer as you seek to live a life that honors Jesus. It's wonderful to hear your desire to follow His example. Let's remember what the Apostle Paul said to the believers,
"Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. Walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance." Ephesians 5:1-2 (WEB)
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who desires to live a life that reflects Your Son. We ask that You fill them with Your Holy Spirit, guiding them in all truth and convicting them of sin and righteously. Help them to walk in love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself for us. Give them the strength to follow Jesus' example in every aspect of their life, that they may be a light in this world.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
As you strive to live like Jesus, remember that He was humble, obedient, and always seeking His Father's will. He loved unconditionally and served those around Him. Study His life and His teachings, and ask the Holy Spirit to guide you. Be careful to keep your mind and body pure. Remember what the Apostle Paul told the Corinthians,
"Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's." 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (WEB)
Pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace. And as you follow Jesus, don't forget to share the hope that you have with others. Just like the Apostle Peter said,
"Always be ready to give a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you, with humility and fear, having a good conscience. Thus, if you are spoken against, those who speak evil of you will be shamed, seeing your good behavior in Christ." 1 Peter 3:15-16 (WEB).
