Praying from Matthew 11:11 relating to Greatness, Humility, Kingdom of Heaven.

Dear Heavenly Father,

I come before you today with a heart full of gratitude and awe for the promise you have given us. You have declared that even the least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than John the Baptizer, who was born of women.

Lord, I claim this promise for myself and for all believers. I thank you for the gift of salvation and for the privilege of being a part of your Kingdom. I pray that you would help me to live a life that reflects the greatness of your Kingdom and the power of your love.

May I always remember that my worth and value come from you alone, and that I am called to serve you with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength. Thank you for the example of John the Baptizer, and for the way he pointed the way to Jesus.

May I follow in his footsteps, and may my life be a testimony to your grace and mercy. I pray all these things in the name of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior.

Amen.

Verse: Most certainly I tell you, among those who are born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptizer; yet he who is least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.
Matthew 11:11

This is a Promise. The promise is that even the least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than John the Baptizer.
