Praying with Paul: 'Walking in the Spirit'

Sunday, January 30, 2022

Romans 8:1-8

Dear Father,

Thank you that there is no condemnation for me now that I am in Christ Jesus. Through the principle of the Spirit of life in him I have been set free from the principle of sin and death.

You, my God, did what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. You sent your own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin. Through him you condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the just requirement of the law might be fulfilled in your people, of which I am one.

Help me walk not according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. Set my mind on your Spirit, so I might live by your Spirit and find life and peace.

It is in the name of Jesus, who gives his Spirit, that I pray these things. Amen.
