Dear God,
I believe that every verse in the Bible is inspired by You. I believe that you want to teach me and guide me in my life. Search my Heart and use Your Word to convict me and correct me. Dear God, please use Your Word to train me and equip me for everything that You’ve prepared for me. Please use your Word to speak to me. I desire to join You in Your plan.
In Jesus name, Amen.
