Help Me

Galatians 5:7-13 "Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth? This persuasion cometh not of Him that calleth you. A little leaven leaventh the whole lump. I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded; but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment whosoever he be. And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? Then is the offence of the cross ceased. I would they were even cut off which trouble you. For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another"

Heavenly Father..
Help me to run well!
Help me not to be hindered from obeying the truth!
Don't let me be persuaded by a viewpoint that is not from you, the God who called us to freedom in Jesus!
A little leaven leavens the whole lump!
Help me keep out even a pinch of "slavery" type thinking and religiosity that worships human will.
For to preach circumcision (law-keeping as a means of justification), is to remove the stumbling block of the cross of Christ.
Help me never to lose sight of the cross, the incredible price Jesus paid for my freedom.

In the name of Jesus I ask you to preserve my faith in freedom and love.
Amen.
