Praying with Paul: 'A Pure Mind'

Friday, September 4, 2026

Titus 1:15-16

Dear Father,

Let me have a pure mind, so that all things may be pure to me. For to the corrupt and unbelieving, nothing is pure. Their minds and consciences are corrupted, and professing to know you, they deny you by their deeds. They are detestable and disobedient, unfit for any good deed.

O God, I want to flee from all such behavior and be yours alone. Guide my mind and keep my heart and move my body! Give me salvation, sincerity, and selflessness.

In the holy name of Christ Jesus I ask it. Amen.
