Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform
you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will know what God
wants you to do, and you will know how good, pleasing and perfect his will really is.
Romans 12:2 (NLT)

“To pray is to change. Prayer is the central avenue God uses to transform
us. If we are unwilling to change, we will abandon prayer as a noticeable
characteristic of our lives. The more we pray, the more we come to the heartbeat of
God. Prayer starts the communication process between God and ourselves. All the
options of life fall before us. At that point, we will either forsake our prayer, forsake
our prayer life and cease to grow, or we will pursue our prayer life and let Him
change us. Either option is painful. To not grow in His Likeness is to not enjoy His
fullness. When this happens, the priorities of the world begin to fade away.” Richard

Ask the Lord to conform your will to His and to strengthen your
desire to do His will. Pray that His word will be written in our hearts. Intercede
for Living Hope to be conformed to God’s will and to uphold His Word.
