Personal Prayer
Praise God that he sweeps away your offenses like the morning mist (Isa. 44:22). Give thanks that God is not unjust and will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you help others (Heb. 6:10). Confess to him those secret things you do which you know are wrong but just haven’t been able to confess (Ps. 44:21). Commit yourself to building others up with encouragement and ridding yourself of bitterness and anger, forgiving others as God in Christ forgives you (Eph. 4:29-32). Ask God to help you be an imitator of him, living a life of love (Eph. 5:1).

For Your Family and Friends
Pray that God will give you his strength to “right some wrong” that you have committed against a family member or friend.

For the Church
Pray that your church will be a forgiving, loving church that is open to receiving any who come, without judging them in any way (Mt. 7:1).

For the Kingdom
Pray for God’s kingdom to grow in his people with a concern to love Jesus more and more, to read the Word faithfully, and not try to build self by judging others.

For People to Know Jesus
Ask that a positive act of forgiveness on your part will lead an unbelieving friend to attend church with you this week and seek faith in Christ.
