Prayer Root Ministries -> Praying through Scripture -> Romans -> Romans 1
Scripture (ESV)
Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.
Prayer Root: Word to Prayer
Heavenly Father,
Holy God, keep me from being deceived by the lies of this world. In a time when truth is often exchanged for falsehood and purity is traded for pleasure, help me remain steadfast in Your Word. Guard my heart from sin that corrupts, from desires that defile, and from influences that draw me away from Your holiness.
Teach me to honor You with my body, mind, and spirit, so that every thought, word, and action brings glory to Your name. When the world celebrates impurity, may my life reflect holiness and reverence for You, the Creator who is blessed forever.
Rooted in prayer, rejoicing in Christ.
