Scripture for today’s prayer: 15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 16 For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.
1 John 2:15-17 New Living Translation (NLT)
Prayer: Lord, it is easy to fall to the temptations of this world. I pray for the strength to abstain from them. As this world is fading, draw me toward those things that please you and the Father. Amen.
