Praying from 1 Corinthians 5:7. Themes: Redemption, Sacrifice, Renewal.
Dear Lord, I pray that you would help me to purge out the old yeast in my life, so that I may be a new lump, free from the sin and burdens of my past. Thank you for sending your Son, Jesus Christ, to be our Passover sacrifice, taking our place on the cross and redeeming us from our sins. Help me to live a life that honors and glorifies you, and to always remember the sacrifice that was made for me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
