Father God, I thank You for protecting us from the things of the world, the jealousies, envy, strife, the chasing after vanity and selfish desires that separate us from You, Your Word and each other.

Father, I pray that You would open our eyes and show us the effects, the pain, hurt and disappointment that is manifested through the lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh and the pride of life. Open our eyes, Lord, that we would see right from wrong. I pray that we have a change of heart that brings us and keeps us in right standing with You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
