Praying from 1 Corinthians 6:7. Themes: Justice, Humility, Forgiveness.

Dear Lord, I come before you with a humble heart, recognizing that having lawsuits with one another is a defect in me. Help me to let go of my pride and desire for revenge. Instead, teach me to be willing to be wronged and defrauded, just as you were willing to be wronged and defrauded for my sake. Help me to trust in your justice and to seek reconciliation with those who have wronged me. May your love and grace guide my actions and words, and may I always seek to honor you in all that I do. Amen.

Verse: Therefore it is already altogether a defect in you that you have lawsuits one with another. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded?
1 Corinthians 6:7

This is a Command. The verse commands the reader to choose being wronged or defrauded over engaging in lawsuits with one another.
