Hallelujah, praise the living God for another day to pray for you all and be used by Him. Today I offer these lines from Martin Luther.

“The opinion of self-righteousness is a great and horrible monster, a rebellious beast, headstrong, and hard-hearted. To overthrow it, God needs a powerful hammer: the law.”

Romans 10:3
New American Standard Bible 1995

³ For not knowing about God’s righteousness and seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God.

Heavenly Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus, Your servant praises and worships You.  Bless You, for using Your hammer on self-righteousness. Please continue to work on my pride and smooth away every jagged edge so I can better expose the light You have placed in me. Help me to be salt to others. Teach me the ways of humility and meekness. I gladly subject myself to You, for this is right and what You deserve. Father, we thank You that You have heard us. Amen in Jesus’ name and by the power of the Holy Spirit.
