Good morning, Jesus.
The battle still wages, Jesus. You said the war wouldn’t end as long as we are here. When I placed my faith in you, immediately my carnal soul began resisting your Holy Spirit’s effort to transform my thoughts and lifestyle. This inner carnal man ruled my soul for so long, but now my inner man realizes he must be transformed to avoid the eternal abyss of separation from you. My old nature fights for its life against this new godly nature moving in to take over control of my soul. You command we surrender our desires to you, Lord Jesus, if we are to make you, not only the Savior of our souls, but, also the Lord of our life. As I yield more of my desires to your Spirit’s control, may my external transformation come more in alignment with my new, divine internal transformation.
Forgive our sins, Lord. Our nation is in need of a spiritual transformation if we are going to remain the last great hope of a free country left in the world. Let the spiritual renewal begin in each one who calls you Lord and Savior. May Christ-followers act like Christ-followers. Help us demonstrate how to love one another and love our neighbor as ourselves to show the world your incredible love and cause people to seek you.
May our transformed lives honor you in all things, Jesus. Amen.
