40 Days of Prayer: Day 17

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH." Romans 1:16-17

Dear Lord,

Today I pray that You would embolden all believers, that we would not be ashamed of the gospel. That we would preach Your good news to all who need to hear. That our preaching would consist of the words of our mouth, our actions, behaviors and attitudes towards others. Lord, when we are faced with opposition or beliefs that are contrary to Your word, give us strength to stand firm on Your gospel and not be swayed by the world. Give us humility to speak the truth in love and lead a dying people to Your side.

I thank You that You have revealed Yourself to us in Your word. Thank You for Your gospel message, and speak it through me today.

In Your Name,
Amen.
