Day13 Wisdom moves us into Action

Day 13 Focus: With God’s Wisdom, we are moved into Action.

March 4, 2026, Wednesday

Breathe deeply and reflect upon any actions you have felt inspired to carry out when God’s wisdom touches your heart.

Reading the scripture adaptation and discern what word or phrase catches your interest: 

Adapted from I Peter 1:13-22.  Dear Lord, I pray that You will gird my mind for action, help me to keep sober in spirit, help me to fix my hope completely on the grace brought to me through the revelation of what Jesus Christ has done for me...Give me the power not to be conformed to former wrong thoughts and acts done in my ignorance, but like the Holy One who calls me, become holy in ALL of my behavior, conducting myself with reverence during my time on earth, knowing that I was redeemed at a very high cost with the precious blood of Christ…Fill me with the knowledge and assurance that I have been born again with the imperishable seed through the living and abiding Word of God to carry out Your will and actions in a hurting world.   I ask for all of this in the holy name of Jesus.  Amen.  

Write down what action this prayer might be prompting you to begin.

When I hear that Peter prayed to “become holy in ALL of his behavior, conducting himself with reverence during his time on earth,” I am encouraged.  I remember all the times Peter got it wrong, but nevertheless he persevered, and I know there is hope for me. 

Reverence is a word that we really need to resurrect in 2026.  What do we revere these days?  As I have been talking to people about this season of Lent, the Holy Spirit is showing me that other people want this kind of reverence in their lives, too.
