Prayer based on Luke 9:55. Themes: Rebuke, Spirit, Knowledge

Dear Lord, please help me to always be aware of the spirit within me. May I never be led astray by negative influences or harmful attitudes. Give me the wisdom to discern the true nature of my thoughts and actions, and the courage to rebuke anything that is not of your spirit. Help me to walk in your light and to be a shining example of your love and grace. Amen.
