Life Application:
1) Everyone will face death one day. How do I prepare for my eventual death?
2) Am I consuming my time and energy to pursue the temporary things of the world or the eternal valuables?
3) How should I pray for my unsaved loving ones’ souls?
Thank you Jesus for saving my soul and giving me the wisdom to live a life that can prepare me well for my death. Lord please continues giving me the wisdom to pursue the eternal valuables rather than the temporary wasteful things of this world during my lifetime. Help me pray for my unsaved family members and friends, whom I have loved dearly, so that the Holy Spirit may convict them of their sins and lead them to repentance and salvation. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
