Personal Prayer
Praise the Lord as the one who owns the earth and everything in it (Ps. 24:1). Thank him for making it part of the inheritance of the meek (Mt. 5:5). Confess aspects of your life where you do not have the meekness of submission to Christ’s Lordship. Commit yourself to being filled and controlled by Christ. Ask him to properly bring the areas you influence under his influence.
For Your Family and Friends
Pray for any in your circle who are “out of control” or merely under the control of themselves. Ask God to reign in your home.
For the Church
Pray for outreach ministries, including various well-known evangelists, to be in proper accountability with God’s people. Ask that the meekness of their submission to Christ’s lordship far surpass their human appeal.
For the Kingdom
Pray that Christians in leadership positions in all walks of life be submitted to Christ. Ask that their meekness will allow those they influence to see past the human leaders to Christ.
For People to Know Jesus
Pray that the meekness of Christian leaders will pave the way for unsaved people to come to Christ.
