LENTEN JOURNEY – WEEK 6
“Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.” ~ James 4:8
The seven weeks leading up to Easter is Lent. It is a season of confession, renewal, and praise. Use this prayer guide as a tool to help you draw near to God in this season. Meditate on the verse and then pray as prompted.
CONFESSION: I confess that although I know God, I do not glorify Him as God, nor am I thankful, but have become futile in my thoughts, and my foolish heart is darkened. I profess to be wise, but have become a fool, and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for man-made images… Adapted from Romans 1:21-23
RENEWAL: I will draw near to You with my mouth,
And honor You with my lips,
My heart will draw near to You
And in worship You fully.
Teach me Your divine law!
(from Matthew 15:8-9)
PRAISE: I will exalt you, my God the King; I will praise your name for ever and ever. ~ Psalm 145:1
