1 Now the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from the true faith; they will follow deceptive spirits and teachings that come from demons. 2 These people are hypocrites and liars, and their consciences are dead.
3 They will say it is wrong to be married and wrong to eat certain foods. But God created those foods to be...
másHeavenly father, give me grace to exercise myself towards godliness.
Just as I need to learn how to include bodily exercise into my life, show me how to include godly exercise into my life.6 If you instruct the brothers of these things, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, nourished in the words of the faith, and of the good doctrine which you have followed. 7 But refuse profane and old wives’ fables. Exercise yourself toward godliness....
másHeavenly Father, give me grace
to speak goodness to others, with love and faithfulness;
to be pure in my words and deeds;
to use the gifts you have given me; and
to pay attention to myself.12 Let no man despise your youth; but be an...
másHeavenly Father give me grace to care for members of my family.
1 Don’t rebuke an older man, but exhort him as a father; the younger men as brothers; 2 the elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, in all purity. 3 Honor widows who are widows indeed. 4 But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them learn first to show piety towards their own...
másHeavenly father, give me grace
to be hospitable to strangers, to serve others and to relieve the afflicted;
to refrain from being idle, being a gossip or a busybody; and
to look after the needs of those close to me.9 Let no one be enrolled as a widow under sixty years old, having been the wife of one man, 10 being approved by good works, if she has brought up children, if she has been hospitable to strangers, if she has washed the saints’ feet, if...

Give me grace to refrain from prejudice; and
Give me grace to refrain from participating in the sins of others;17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially those who labour in the word and in teaching.

másHeavenly Father
Give us grace to serve others, whatever the circumstance.
Give us grace to be turn from conceit, argumentativeness, envy, strife, rudeness, suspicion, corruption and lies,
Give us grace to avoid seeing godliness as a means of gain.1 Let as many as are bondservants under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and the doctrine not be blasphemed. 2 Those who have believing masters, let them not despise them...
másHeavenly Father
give us grace to be godly and content.6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into the world, and we certainly can’t carry anything out. 8 But having food and clothing, we will be content with that. 9 But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful...
más11 But you, man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and gentleness. 12 Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and you confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses. 13 I command you before God, who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus...
másHeavenly Father
Give us grace to set our hope on you,
Give us grace so that we may be rich in good works and generous in giving and communicating.17 Charge those who are rich in this present world that they not be haughty, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on the living God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy; 18 that they do good, that they...
