Prayer based on John 8:41. Themes: Identity, Fatherhood, Sin

Dear God, we thank you for being our one and only Father. We pray that we may always do your works and follow your will. Help us to resist the temptations of the world and to stay true to your teachings. May we never be swayed by the lies and deceit of the enemy. We ask for your forgiveness for any times we have strayed from your path and we pray for your guidance and strength to always do what is right. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
