Heavenly Father, we come to you this morning asking forgiveness for our many sins. Our world is full of lies and we are threatened by them. Our adversary the devil is the father of lies. The people around us have exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worship created things. Forgive us for believing lies. You never lie, and we thank you for the many pledges of your love that you have given to us. We ask that by the Holy Spirit, the pledges of your Word would enable us to withstand oppression. Give us deeper understanding of the truths in your word, that we would treasure them above fine gold. We pray in Jesus’ name, amen. (Based on Psalm 119:121-128, ayin)
