Heavenly Father, please keep me labouring in your word. May I see the beauty and life that it holds and point others to it. Please help me to rightly handle the word of truth, understanding it thoroughly and teaching it faithfully. Help me to speak of your gospel, working hard and enduring all things that many may hear and trust in you. Help me to rely on your word to save and not my own endeavours or capacities, but work through me by your power and for your glory. Reshape my own heart as I dig into your word and prepare to teach it to others, uprooting sin and strengthening my hope in Christ.
Amen
