” Let us search out and examine our ways, And turn back to the Lord;..”(Lamentations 3:40 NKJV).

” Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.  Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness,..”(Ephesians 6:13-14 NKJV).

“But test all things carefully [so you can recognize what is good]. Hold firmly to that, which is good. Abstain from every form of evil [withdraw and keep away from it].”( 1 Thessalonians 5:21-22 AMP).

Another translation says to examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good;1 Thessalonians 5:21

” Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;  and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.  Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.”( Philippians 4:6-8 NKJV)

My 🙏🏽 Prayer…
Dear Heavenly Father, You are a holy God and I desire to be holy too. Set apart unto You, and living my life in a manner that is worthy of You and pleasing to You.
 
Search my heart I pray, and if there is any cherished sin lurking within, I ask that You would search it out and destroy it, for I know that only the one that has clean hands and a pure heart may stand in Your presence.
 
Purify my heart, cleanse my inner thoughts and examine the very motives behind my acts and attitudes, for I desire to live in holiness of heart. If there is anything that is displeasing to You in my life, I ask that in Your grace You would root it out, so that I may live in godly holiness all the days of my life, clothed in Christ’s righteousness, separated unto You and walking in godly love.

Thank You, Father, that You have called me out of darkness into Your marvelous light and set me free from slavery to sin and released me from bondage to fear. 
 
Thank You for breathing the new resurrection life of Christ into my very being and for taking up permanent residence within my heart. Lord, I want to be led by Your Holy Spirit and to walk in spirit and truth. I want to live a godly life and to develop personal holiness, but I do not really know how to. 
 
Lord, I come to You incapable of being able to live a holy life myself and humbly ask You Lord, that You would teach me to be holy and show me how You would have me live. Open my eyes to see what You would have to do. Unblock my ears so that I may hear Your still small voice, and give me a teachable spirit to learn all that You would teach me. I know that alone I can do nothing, but in Christ, who is my life, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. IN JESUS’S NAME, AMEN.

” Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”[Jude 1:24-25 NKJV]
