Empty Yourself for God

Rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.—Philippians 2:7 (NIV)
You become spiritually fulfilled when you empty yourself for God. Let go of your personal accomplishments and ego; let go of selfish desires and self-centered thinking. Lose yourself, completely—and let your spirit be filled.
Dear Lord, I come to You as an empty vessel. Fill me with Your grace and mercy.

Search Your Heart

If you, Lord, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand? But with you there is forgiveness so that we can, with reverence, serve you.—Psalm 130:3–4 (NIV)
In the above verse, as David waits for God to answer his prayer, he searches his heart and confesses anything that might be hindering his relationship with God. Even when you aren’t waiting on the Lord, now is the perfect time to surrender your will and ask God to align your desires with His plans.
Merciful God, forgive me of my wrongdoings, my selfish requests, so that I can serve You with reverence.

The Exhausted Prophet

Then he lay down under the bush and fell asleep. All at once an angel touched him and said, “Get up and eat.”—1 Kings 19:5 (NIV)
Elijah had dedicated His life to serving God, and yet he became so exhausted he was ready to give up. In the above verse, the Lord let Elijah sleep peacefully and sent an angel to feed him. After rest and food, Elijah felt prepared to face his future and hear God’s still, small voice. If you are feeling like Elijah, burned out from your life’s work, take a moment and ask God to minister to you.
Lord, when I am struggling, guide me to find peace and rest in Your presence.

In Your Prayers

Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.—Galatians 6:2 (NIV)

God of comfort, thank You for being our stronghold, our anchor and Savior! Thank You for the amazing power of prayer.

What If?

What if there are fifty righteous people in the city? Will you really sweep it away and not spare the place for the sake of the fifty righteous people in it?—Genesis 18:24 (NIV)
When God revealed His plans to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah, Abraham asked “what if” questions until God answered. When you aren’t sure of your path, pray in the form of questions. Ask God: “What next?”

No Doubt

But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”—Matthew 14:30 (NIV)
When Peter cried out to Jesus in the above verse, the Lord pulled him up. “Why did you doubt?” He asked him. When the storms of life crash down on you, how do you react? And when God lifts you up with an opportunity, do you recognize His great power? Why do you doubt?
Lord, You’ve rescued me countless times when I cried out for You to save me. Help me to feel secure the next time a storm is approaching.
