We Pray

28 Day Devotional, Day 5:

What To Ask For (part 1)

Moses was clearly one of the greatest leaders of all time. And he made specific requests to God to help him lead the Israelites. The first was to ask God to teach him the ways of God – as a leader he desired to lead in a Godly manner, knowing God and finding favor with God and with the traits and abilities that represent his master. ‘Teach me your ways’ should be the prayer and cry of every person and especially for those whom God has given leadership responsibilities. That was Moses’ prayer and it needs to be our prayer as well.

Prayer: Lord God, it is our prayer that you teach us your ways. We, like Moses, want to know you and continue to find favor with you and to grow in likeness to Christ – for this we ask that you teach us your ways. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Exodus 33:13 KJV
Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, shew me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that this nation is thy people.
