In this evening’s prayer meeting we will read through this passage, then pray the following prayer in unison.

Heavenly Father,

We want to learn Christ, He is truth. Teach us to put off our old selves, those things that belonged to our former way of life. Teach us to be renewed in the spirit of our minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God, in true righteousness and holiness.

Teach us to speak truth, not falsehood. Teach us to defeat the devil by putting away anger and submitting to You.

Teach us to share with those who have need, to build one another up and to give grace to others. May we be a people who are kind, tender-hearted and forgiving of one another as You have forgiven us in Christ Jesus.

We pray in the strong name of Jesus,

Amen.
