How to Cleanse the Polluted Soul
Good news, struggling Christian: God does want to bless you. But if your soul has been polluted by sexual sin, He must do a cleansing work in order to make you capable of receiving the wonderful life He has for you.
In today’s sermon, Steve Gallagher shares three biblical steps you must take to join God in His cleansing work. And for your personal use in this process, we’re glad to share with you the “Mercy” prayer, which we give to everyone in our counseling programs. You can download it here.
- Lord, I thank you for __________________ . I thank you for saving him. Thank you for what you have done and are doing in his life.
- Make ____________________ to know Jesus. Help him to increase in the knowledge of God. Destroy speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God and help him to bring every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.
- Make ______________________ poor in spirit. Bring him down, Lord, but please do it gently. Help him to see his neediness. Help him to see himself in light of you. Put him in his rightful place, Lord.
- Fill _______________________ with your Holy Spirit. Immerse him in your Spirit, Lord. Come to him in power and might. Baptize him in fire, Lord.
- Life _______________________. Life him according to Thy loving-kindnesses. Pour out Your life-giving mercies into his soul.
- Bless _______________________. Lord, bless him in everything he touches. Bless him spiritually, physically, and financially. Bless his loved ones. Do for him Lord, instead of me.
- Mercy _______________________. Flood him with need-filling mercies. Pour them out in super abundance. Find and meet every need in his life as You see it, Lord.
