Father, in the name of Jesus, Your Word commands me, "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life."
Therefore, help me guard my heart.
Expose anything attempting to take root in me that You did not plant.
Uproot bitterness.
Uproot unforgiveness.
Uproot pride.
Uproot jealousy.
Uproot offense.
Uproot hidden anger.
Uproot fear.
Uproot unhealthy desires.
Do not allow temporary experiences to establish permanent strongholds within my heart.
Create in me a clean heart and renew a right spirit within me.
Father, increase the capacity of my inner man.
According to Ephesians 3:16, strengthen me with might by Your Spirit in the inner man.
Increase my capacity to love without becoming corrupted, to endure without becoming bitter, to carry responsibility without becoming proud, and to receive correction without becoming offended.
Guard my heart, enlarge my heart, strengthen my heart, and make my heart trustworthy before You.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
Proverbs 4:23
