50 Fire Prayer Points Against The Spirit Of Self-Righteousness Hindering True Repentance

Bible Exhortation:

My friend, let us heed the words of Romans 12:3: “For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according1 to the measure of faith2 that God has assigned.” Let us examine our hearts, ensuring we approach God with humility and a genuine awareness of our need for His grace.

Bible Confession:

Heavenly Father, we come before you acknowledging that we have all fallen short of your glory. We confess any tendency within us towards self-righteousness, any inclination to compare ourselves favorably to others, or to rely on our own efforts rather than your boundless mercy. We acknowledge that our righteousness is as filthy rags before you, and we humbly seek your forgiveness and cleansing. (in the name of Jesus, Amen.)

Bible Verse:

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John3 1:9)

Praise and Worship:

Let us lift our voices and hearts in praise:

“Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!

Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee;

Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty!

God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!”4

“Amazing grace, how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch like me.

I once was lost, but now am found,

Was blind, but now I see.”
