Titus 3 ~ Praying Scripture

Please read Titus 3.

Meditate on verses 4 -6.

But when the kindness of God our Savior

and His love for mankind appeared,

He saved us, not on the basis of deeds

which we have done in righteousness,

but according to His mercy,

by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,

whom He poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior.

Apart from Jesus, you are a mess.  Before being saved, you were foolish, disobedient, deceived, and enslaved to sin.  There was not one righteous deed you could do to save yourself.  But when the kindness of God your Savior and His love for you appeared He saved you according to His mercy, by the washing and renewing of the Holy Spirit whom He poured out upon you richly through Jesus Christ your Savior.

Salvation is such a great news story.  Why would God be so kind to you?  Why would He pour out His mercy on despicable mankind?  Because God loves people, and He wants to save them from their mess.  Behave in a Godly way so others will be drawn to the kindness and love of your Savior.

Pray Titus 3:1-2 over yourself and those for whom you are standing guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“Lord, help ___________ and me to be subject to rulers, to authorities,

to be obedient, to be ready for every good deed.

Let us malign no one;

 let us be peaceable, gentle,

and show every consideration for all men.

For Your cause, Jesus~”
