Don’t Plead… Please!
For God is working in you,
giving you the desire
and the power to do what pleases him.—Philippians 2:13 (NLT)
When you pray, do you plead for what you want and try
to convince God that you know best? Instead pray this
verse. Let Scripture move your spirit more closely to
His will rather than fighting for your way. Center your
heart on pleasing God.
Lord, I need Your help in letting go of what I want. Help
me to focus my effort on pleasing You instead.
