Praying from Acts 18:6. Themes: Judgment, Evangelism, Responsibility.
Dear Lord,
As I face opposition and blasphemy in my life, I pray that I may have the strength and courage to stand firm in my faith. Help me to shake off the negativity and not let it affect me.
May I always remember that my salvation is secure in you, and that I am clean through your sacrifice on the cross. Let me not be swayed by the opinions of others, but instead focus on your truth and your will for my life.
If those who oppose me refuse to listen and continue to reject your message, I pray that you will lead me to those who are open to hearing it. May I be a light to the Gentiles, sharing your love and grace with all who will receive it.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Verse: When they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook out his clothing and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am clean. From now on, I will go to the Gentiles!”
Acts 18:6
This is a Command. The command is for the reader to take responsibility for their own actions and decisions, as the consequences will be on their own heads.
