Beloved of All
The first thing you need to do is repent. Before forgiveness, before wanting to help people, before pretending to care about others, before recovery. You need to repent. The first word Jesus said when He began His earthly ministry was “repentâ€. That means to turn around, to turn away from your self, to turn away from your reflection in the mirror, to turn away from the reflection of yourself in others, to turn around, and turn toward Jesus and the cross. It means to admit that you are wretched and that you need Jesus and that you will get off your throne and bow before Him as the only One worthy of worship. Stop worshiping at the altar of self. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but it is the truth and it is reality and you need to face it. It is the only way. HE is the only way. Everything else is smoke and mirrors and deceit and lust and craving. Jesus is the only way. Turn around. Repent and be forgiven.
 
Oh God, let us be firebrands for Your Kingdom. Let our hearts and minds be set like flint to follow and serve You daily. Hear the cry of our hearts as we long to please You and Your Son and Your precious Holy Spirit. Help us to take up our cross daily and follow You in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Jesus said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that hears My word, and believes on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. John 5:24
 
Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
