On this morning of abundant grace and glory,God, the overseer of history and ruler of all nations, I give you praise for you rule this world according to your word and will.

In today's passage (Ezekiel 11:1-13), you were aware of the evil plots of corrupted religious leaders, and you inflicted punishment upon them, against which there is no protection. Through this, I was able to meet a God who sees through people's internal thoughts and sins, although it may be concealed from man's perception. I earnestly ask that spiritual leaders and I would be able to confess the sin that is hidden inside and lead a godly life, chasing after your will. My desire is that no only my visible actions, but that my thoughts also would be clean and pure. I pray Holy Spirit that you would help me to completely offer my mind and words of my mouth to you.

Today, would you raise us as fiathful sons and daughters who faithfully serve God's word and will, rooting out the world's values and logic in every situation. I pray that we may never cease from our devotional training, and seek to be obedient to your word. I pray in Jesus' name, who leads us so that we may avoid God's punishment and experience his grace and blessing. Amen.

Begin your mornings with Pastor Kim's daily prayers. Reverend Dae Joon Kim is the senior pastor at LA Vision Church.
