50 DCLM Prayer Points Against the Spirit of Vanity

50 DCLM Prayer Points Against the Spirit of Vanity:

Exhortation:

Hey there! Ever catch yourself getting a little too caught up in how things look on the outside? It’s so easy to do in this world, isn’t it? We see all the flashy stuff and can start to think that’s what really matters. But here’s the thing: God looks at the heart. He’s way more interested in who we’re becoming on the inside than what we’re showing off on the outside. Let’s keep our focus on what truly lasts – a heart that’s humble and surrendered to Him.

Confession:

Father, we come before you today, and we confess that we have sometimes allowed the spirit of vanity to creep into our hearts. We’ve worried too much about what others think, about our appearance, about our achievements being recognized by the world. Forgive us for these moments when we’ve sought validation from fleeting things rather than from your unfailing love. We turn away from these tendencies now and ask for your help to keep our eyes fixed on you. In Jesus name, Amen.

Scripture Reading:

Let’s turn to 1 Samuel 16:7: “But the Lord said to Samuel, ‘Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things¹ people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the² heart.'”

Praise and Worship:

(Imagine a moment of heartfelt praise and worship here. Perhaps a song about God’s unfailing love, His majesty, and the beauty of His holiness.)
