Open your mind and heart to God’s presence and guidance.
Scripture:
John 11:17-44
Focus Verse:
“Jesus said to them, ‘Unbind him, and let him go’” (v. 44).
Listening to God:
”You are mine! My deepest delight is to set you free from everything that stunts and binds your life. The tentacles of envy, worry, self-will, and so many other things wrap themselves around your heart without you even realizing it. They steal your joy and make you less effective as my witness. You cannot rescue yourself; they are more powerful than you are. Come to me, and let me free you from the clutches of these spiritual predators. Let me unbind you and set you free!”
Listen in silence. Quiet your mind by letting go of sounds and thoughts as they occur, seeking a silent space for God’s word to you.
Write or say your own prayer.
