Let us not become entangled in the affairs of this world in a way that causes us to lose any of the sanctity of our lives. Though we are in the world, let us not be of it. Help us to maintain a godly life amid all that is ungodly!

 

My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

 ⏤ Psalm 5:3 

The word of God is the food by which prayer is nourished and made strong. 

⏤ E.M. Bounds

We need to pray and stay focused on the Spirit world, on Heaven, on Jesus, following, reflecting, and imitating Him! This world with humans will always disappoint. We see it all the time, even in the news, with our government, elected, gangsters, and powers that be, who all become slaves for Satan doing so much evil, promoting things like killing babies with abortions, allowing all the crime and lawlessness, seeing all the greed from elected, taking bribes and millions from other countries in dollars, gold, luxury items, etc. A lot of out elected are greedy, selfish, corrupt, and self-serving, we see and hear about it all the time, although some complicit media will not report on them and ignore the bad guys they try to protect, but all slaves for Satan, it is all evil. All we can do is pray for them and this world and all the evil and wickedness, all the slaves. We see a lot of ungodly today in our elected, government gangsters, and powers that be. We need to follow Jesus, we need to imitate and reflect Him, staying in Spirit, knowing this Earth School is not our home, we are promised life eternal in Heaven with Jesus, when we follow Him! 

The Mornings with God App today had a nice write-up, Bible verse, quote, and prayer about the goodness of God, they said,  "O God, most merciful—bless us this morning. Lay Your hand upon us with a Father’s blessing. May the grace of the Lord Jesus be upon us and in us all day long. Let Your word dwell in our hearts richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing us. May it be so deeply rooted in us that it keeps us from sin. May the power of Your Spirit rest upon us throughout this day, cleansing and purifying our thoughts, feelings, and all our inner life, and compelling us to walk in holiness in all we say and do. Please guide us today, O God, and keep us in all our experiences. Guard us from carelessness. Let us not drift away from the holy truths we have been taught, nor from Jesus Christ our Savior. Let us not become entangled in the affairs of this world in a way that causes us to lose any of the sanctity of our lives. Though we are in the world, let us not be of it. Help us to maintain a godly life amid all that is ungodly. May our citizenship always be visibly in Heaven, even though we dwell on this earth. May we be true pilgrims, looking for a city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God. Let us not love this world as if we were going to stay in it forever. Grant a personal blessing to each one in our family. Our needs are different. Tenderly care for those of us who are weak. Shelter any of us who will be exposed to temptation today, and let us not fall. If any unforeseen trouble or sorrow lies in our path, prepare us for it, that we may not be caught off guard and fall into sin. May we each carry out into the world a power of love and grace that will bless everyone we meet. We ask all this for Jesus’ sake. Amen."

I love the statement above, "Let us not become entangled in the affairs of this world in a way that causes us to lose any of the sanctity of our lives. Though we are in the world, let us not be of it. Help us to maintain a godly life amid all that is ungodly." It is so true, we need to set our minds on Heaven and the Spirit world with Jesus, not on things of this world! We need to look for a city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God. Let us not love this world as if we were going to stay in it forever. Make Heaven and Jesus your number one priority!
