Who is like You, glorious in >holiness, >Fearful in praises, doing wonders? >(Exodus 15:11). >You are great, O Lord God. For there is none like You, nor is there any >God besides You, according to all that we have heard with our ears (2 >Samuel 7:22). > >• Pause for personal praise and thanksgiving. Pray this confession as >you seek to keep your life free from sin: >O my God, I am too ashamed and humiliated to lift up my face to You, my >God; for our iniquities have risen > >higher than our heads, and our guilt has grown up to the heavens >(Ezra 9:6). > >• Confess any sins that the Holy Spirit brings to your mind. Now pray >this affirmation to the Lord: >If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart >that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the >heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is >made unto salvation. For >the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame" >(Romans 10:9-11). > >• As you make your requests known to the Lord, include: >• greater love for the lost, >• the work of missions in Africa, >• your activities for the day. > >• Offer this closing prayer to the Lord: >That you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of >our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 15:6). > > >Quiet Walk is published by Walk Thru the Bible Ministries, Inc. in >Atlanta, GA.
