Praying from Romans 8:7. Themes: Hostility, Law, Submission.

Dear God, I pray that you help me overcome the hostility of my fleshly mind towards you. I acknowledge that my mind is not subject to your law, and I cannot do it on my own. Please help me to submit to your will and follow your commandments. I ask for your guidance and strength to overcome the temptations of the flesh and live a life that pleases you. Thank you for your love and grace. Amen.

Verse: because the mind of the flesh is hostile toward God, for it is not subject to God’s law, neither indeed can it be.
