Praying with Paul: 'A Model of Good Deeds'

Friday, September 5, 2025

Titus 2:1-8

Dear Father, whose word is sound doctrine,

Let me teach by word and example what conforms to the sound doctrine of your word. Help me to be temperate, serious, sensible, sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness.

Let me show myself in all respects to be a model of good deeds, and in my teaching and example to show integrity, gravity, and sound expression that cannot be criticized, so that any one who opposes your teaching may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say of me.

In the precious name of Jesus. Amen.
