Praying with Paul: 'A Sufficient Answer'

Thursday, January 29, 2026

Romans 7:21-8:1

Dear Father,

I delight in your law even though evil keeps planting suggestions of rebellion in my mind. Help me to truly want to do what is right in your sight, Father.

Thanks be to you, my God, through Jesus Christ my Lord! You have provided a sufficient answer to the conflict within me - the life and sacrifice of Jesus and his resurrection.

Thank you, Father, that there is now no condemnation for me because I am in Christ!

In the name of Jesus I thank you and praise you for the mercy shown to me and all your chosen ones. Hallelujah. Amen.
