"Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it."
1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
I have recently started reading "Holiness, the Heart God Purifies" by Nancy Leigh DeMoss. I wanted to share a prayer she shares at the beginning of this book:
Oh, God,
Show me more of Your holiness.
Show me more of my sinfulness.
Help me to hate sin and to love righteousness as You do.
Grant me a deeper conviction of sin
and a more thorough spirit of repentance.
And make me holy as You are holy.
Show me more of Your holiness.
Show me more of my sinfulness.
Help me to hate sin and to love righteousness as You do.
Grant me a deeper conviction of sin
and a more thorough spirit of repentance.
And make me holy as You are holy.
She challenges us to commit to pray this prayer for 30 days... and see what God does in our hearts. I am committing to do this. If you would like to join me in praying this prayer for 3o days please leave me a comment and let me know... I would love for you to join me in this journey towards holiness, radical holiness. As Nancy states, "To be holy is to be wholly satisfied with Christ." That is something I want, how about you?
