Father, show me through Your Holy Spirit how to brush aside temptations and distractions so that I may serve You with humility and reverence. Don’t allow me to turn to the right nor to the left, but focus my work toward the task and purpose You set before me. May I run the race in faith and finish to hear Your approval, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” Be glorified, Father, in the name and authority of Jesus, according to Your good and perfect will. Amen.
“Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.” (Hebrews 12:28 NKJV)
