Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.

Psalm 139:23-24

Throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes.

Ephesians 4:22-23

Picture God looking deeply into your heart and seeing all the sins within it that have the power to damage your relationship with him and others. Then picture him lovingly bringing those things to the surface.

As you imagine this, does any sin immediately come to mind? Before you can throw off your sin, you need to know what it is. So end this time of prayer by thanking God for helping you discover these truths about yourself.
