Prayer as a Way of Life by Sis. Cristy and Bro.

Evaluate
Your Spiritual Status (Part-2)
Today’s Devotion
How do you
measure up when it comes to:
(1) Obedience. ‘Obey those
who rule over you, and be submissive, for they watch out for your souls, as
those who must give account. Let them do so with joy and not with grief, for
that would be unprofitable for you’ (Hebrews 13:17 NKJV).
Do you consistently obey the things you know God wants you to do? Do you submit
to the guidance of those God has placed over you? Do you pray for them and
thank God for the deposits they make into your life?
(2) A pure heart. ‘If we say
we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess
our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from
all unrighteousness’ (1 John 1:8-9 NKJV). Do you confess your sins
specifically and by name? Do you purpose to forsake your sin the moment God
reveals it to you? What about your unsurrendered areas? Are you willing to give
up all sin for God?
(3) A clear conscience.
‘I…strive to have a conscience without offence toward God and men’ (Acts 24:16 NKJV). Do you seek forgiveness from
those you’ve offended? Is your conscience clear with God and man?
(4) Confidence before God. ‘If our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God. And
whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do
those things that are pleasing in His sight’ (1 John 3:21-22 NKJV).
Have you moved beyond merely ‘right or wrong’, and asked yourself, ‘How will
this affect my confidence before God?’
