Morning Prayer

A Morning Prayer for Temptation

Today will offer you something shiny that costs more than it's worth — be ready.

God, I know the enemy studies my patterns and knows my weak spots. But today I pre-decide: I choose integrity over impulse. Pleasure is temporary but consequence is long. Give me the spiritual sight to see traps before I step in them. I walk with awareness and with You today.

Pre-decided victories are the easiest to win — and you just made your choice. Walk strong today. Amen.

When to pray this

Temptation is strongest when you are tired, alone, or already discouraged — it is patient and it waits for those conditions. Pray in advance of the moment rather than only inside it, and tell one trustworthy person.
