Hope you 71 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 2: never forget the God's present and that he's listening to you. 72 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 2: He is the source of all things. We can do 73 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 2: nothing without him. Ask God for you to not only 74 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 2: accomplish the goals before you, but for you to thrive 75 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 2: in doing so. Pray for humility in a sound mind, 76 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 2: that pride would not rise up and cause you to fail. 77 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 2: Pray that you would be an instrument that brings honor 78 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 2: to His name.

Never forget the Lord 82 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 2: your God. Do not follow after the Gods. Do not 83 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 2: follow other God or put other things in his place, 84 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 2: or you will invite destruction. Be confident in the knowledge 85 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 2: that God is the one who wants to bless your life. 86 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: He will bless you above and exceedingly beyond what you need. 87 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 2: Choose then to acknowledge Him in all of your ways. 88 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 2: Thank you for completing today's meditative prayer on pray dot com. 89 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 2: By incorporating this healthy habit as daily practice, you are 90 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 2: making prayer priority and strengthening your walk with God.
