And he said, ‘What comes out of a person is what defiles him.’
(Mark 7:20)
Pray
You know all the impurities that reside within me, the thoughts, words, and actions that come from my heart and defile me. I humbly ask for Your forgiveness and for Your guidance to help me purify my heart and live according to Your will. Please help me to be aware of the sinful tendencies within me and grant me the strength to overcome them with Your grace.
I pray that You will cleanse me from the inside out, transforming me into a vessel of Your love and righteousness. Help me to guard my heart and be mindful of the things that I allow to enter it. I surrender myself to You, trusting that You will mold me into the person You created me to be. Thank You for Your mercy and grace, and for the assurance that I can overcome my sinful nature through Your power. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
