To Please God Rather Than Man
Father, I desire to please You rather than men. Forgive me for loving the approval and the praise and the glory that come from men [instead of and] more than the glory that comes from You. [I value my credit with You more than my credit with men.]
In Jesus’ name I declare that I am free from the fear of man, which brings a snare. I lean on, trust in, and put my confidence in You. I am safe and set on high.
I take comfort and am encouraged and confidently and boldly say, “The Lord is my Helper; I will not be seized with alarm [I will not fear or dread or be terrified]. What can man do to me?” (Heb. 13:6 amp).
Father, just as You sent Jesus into the world, You have sent me. You are ever with me, for I always seek to do what pleases You.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
