Praying the Scripture Through LentSample

The World

Living in the world today makes it increasingly hard to live the Jesus way. The challenge that presents itself is not to allow the world to change our worldview instead to be transformed by the Holy Spirit of God, who renews our hearts and minds. He alone can help us navigate life on earth today and for the rest of our lives. He alone can help us battle the enemy who constantly distracts us and deviates us from the plans of God.

Use these verses to worship and adore Him for who He is, what He’s done, and ask Him to help you live a life that pleases Him and brings Him glory. Read the scriptures as prayers of worship, thanksgiving, and supplication, believing that there is power in every declaration.

Titus 2:11-12 NLT

For the grace of God has been revealed, bringing salvation to all people. 12 And we are instructed to turn from godless living and sinful pleasures. We should live in this evil world with wisdom, righteousness, and devotion to God,

2 Corinthians 10:3 AMP

For though we walk in the flesh [as mortal men], we are not carrying on our [spiritual] warfare according to the flesh and using the weapons of man. “The weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood]. Our weapons are divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. We are destroying sophisticated arguments and every exalted and proud thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ,”

Romans 12:2 NLT

Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.
