Message:
God, I want more of You. Too often, I choose to pursue momentary things and push You aside. Please forgive me, and change me. I don’t want to live a life that isn’t focused on You. As I prepare for Resurrection Sunday, help me to silence the noise in my life. Show me what steps I need to take to refocus my heart, mind, and will on You alone. Search my heart, and know me. Clean out my life, point out anything that offends You, and make me more like You. Show me the paths that lead to life, and fill me with joy in Your presence. I love You, and I want to fix my eyes on You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, as I come before You today, I am filled with the desire to draw closer to Your presence. Sometimes, in the hustle and bustle of life, I find myself distracted by fleeting moments and temporary pleasures, leading me away from the love and joy that come from a relationship with You. I acknowledge that I have allowed the noise of the world to drown out Your voice, and for that, I seek Your forgiveness. Please cleanse my heart of any distractions that have led me astray. Help me to realign my priorities and set my mind on things that truly matter, those that bring glory to You.
As I approach this significant time, prepare my heart in anticipation of Resurrection Sunday. I desire to refocus my thoughts and intentions on You, Lord. Help me to quiet any distractions that linger in my mind, that I may hear Your gentle whispers guiding me. I invite You, Holy Spirit, to shine a light in the corners of my heart that need attention. Point out the feelings, habits, and patterns that distract me from fully embracing Your love and purpose for my life.
I ask You to reveal the ways in which I can draw nearer to You, Lord. Show me the steps I need to take to embrace a life filled with faith and devotion. I yearn for the path that leads to fullness, joy, and everlasting peace in Your presence. Guide me in this journey of reflection and renewal as I seek to deepen my relationship with You.
Thank You for Your love and grace, which compel me to seek Your face. I long to fix my eyes solely on You and live in the joy of Your presence. May my heart become a true reflection of Your goodness and a vessel for Your peace. In the name of Jesus, I pray all these things, trusting in Your perfect love and guidance. Amen.
