We Need to Pray to God Constantly! Turn from Sin! Bear Lovely Fruit! Honor God and Make Him First! Goal #1: Heaven!

 

Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. 

⏤ John 15:16 (KJV)

The world needs more true praying to save it from the reign and ruin of Satan.

The Morning with God App had a nice Bible verse, quote, write-up, and prayer today. A good reminder for all of us on how to live. We need to pray more, turn from sin, not be selfish, and be as upright, and holy we can be. The App said, "We bow at Your feet, O God, this morning to ask of You the help we shall need for our day. We cannot tell what we shall meet, what burdens may be laid upon us, through what conflicts we may have to pass. But You know all that this day holds for us. Your eye sees every step of its path. Like little children, therefore, we put our hands in Yours, asking that You will lead us in the way in which we should go. We wish it to be a day that shall honor You. We desire to live sweetly, patiently, and unselfishly. But in ourselves, we shall not be able to live up to our own ideals — to do the things we want to do. We cast our weakness on Your strength, asking You for the help we shall need at every step. We desire that this shall be a day of usefulness. We would do all our tasks well, leaving nothing undone that we ought to do. Help us to be honest, true, skillful, alert, and to do all things faithfully; not for human eyes — but for Your eye. We desire also to be helpful to others during this day. Give us much of the spirit of kindness, thoughtfulness, and helpfulness — so that every life which ours touches, may receive some blessing. May our words be encouraging words, making life easier for others, or making them stronger to meet it. If there are sick people, or troubled and tempted ones, whom You would have us help today — may You lead us to them and put into our heart the right thought of kindness, into our lips the right words to speak, into our hands the touch which may strengthen and heal. Thanking You for the goodness of the last night, and asking You for the forgiveness of all our sins, we now give ourselves to You, to be used by You today as You will. In Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen." 

We need to pray more! Not live such selfish lives, be righteous and holy, and make God the center of our lives! We need to be positive, joyful, optimistic, have hope, and rejoice in the Lord always, do the best we can on this Earth School, pray constantly, be connected to God, and be righteous! We are not of this world, do not let this world consumer you!  Bear good fruit while on this Earth School! Pray!
