Praying from Romans 14:20. Themes: Obedience, Stumbling block.

Dear God, please help me to never prioritize my own desires for food over your work in my life. I know that all things are clean, but I pray that I never become a stumbling block for others by indulging in something that may cause them to stumble. Please give me the strength and wisdom to make choices that honor you and build up those around me. Amen.

Verse: Don’t overthrow God’s work for food’s sake. All things indeed are clean, however it is evil for that man who creates a stumbling block by eating.
Romans 14:20

This is a Command. The verse commands the reader not to prioritize food over God’s work and to avoid causing others to stumble by their eating habits.
