Praying from 1 Timothy 1:7 relating to Ignorance, False Teaching, Pride

Dear Lord, please help me to not become like those who desire to be teachers of the law but do not understand what they say or strongly affirm. May I always seek to understand your word and teachings, and may I never lead others astray with my own misunderstandings. Grant me wisdom and discernment as I study and teach your truth. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
