Praying with Paul: 'Spirit of Faith'

Thursday, May 29, 2025

2 Corinthians 4:13-15

Heavenly Father, giver of life and faith,

Thank you for the spirit of grace which enables me to believe.

May I have the same spirit of faith as he who wrote, "I believed, and so I spoke." I believe too, and so let me speak!

I believe (I know!) that you, the God who raised the Lord Jesus, will also raise me with Jesus and bring me into his presence.

As your grace extends to more and more people may they pour out their thanksgiving - to your glory!

In the name of Jesus, who intercedes for me, I praise you for such wonderful blessings. Amen.
