GOD JUDGES BY WORDS AND DEEDS

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they continue to give you all the praise for your unconditional love. They are grateful for the gift of life and another opportunity to glorify your holy name.

They know that it is only by your grace that they have life, and they have it more abundantly. Despite the downs that they experience in life, they continue to push through their troubles with a smile. Despite their ups in life, they continue to remain steadfast in prayer and supplication, studying your holy word to show themselves approved, rightly dividing your holy word. Despite their negative encounters with those who claim to be of you, they push forward, knowing that no one can ever be truly known by what they say alone because actions speak louder than words. 

Father, help all realize that they will be held accountable for their actions, words, and deeds. Therefore, repent, confess Christ, and for those who have not been baptized in the watery grave of baptism, be reborn in the watery grave in the name of God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.

“Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.” Romans 6:4
