Prayer based on Proverbs 21:27. Themes: Sacrifice, Wickedness, Abomination.

Dear Lord, we come before you humbly and ask for your forgiveness for any sacrifices we may have made with a wicked mind. We know that the sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to you, and we pray that you would cleanse our hearts and minds so that we may offer sacrifices that are pleasing to you. Help us to always approach you with a pure heart and a desire to do your will. We thank you for your mercy and grace, and we pray that you would guide us in all that we do. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
