Give God undivided attention in prayer, choices, and thought, letting one part of life shape the rest

Keep faith as a small part of life while other priorities stay in charge

Focus on feeling close to God, even if habits and decisions stay unchanged

Show respect for God mainly by repeating religious words when you have time

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I admit that I have not loved God with all my heart, soul, and mind. I have sinned and I need your mercy. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I turn from my sin and give you my whole life. Be my Lord and my Savior, and teach me to love God fully. Amen.

Love God with My Whole Life

Father, revive your Church so we love you with whole hearts, steady souls, and focused minds. Forgive our divided devotion, our distracted worship, and our half-hearted obedience. Wake us up to first love, and make us a people whose lives answer your call, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Revive Wholehearted Love in Your Church

Thank God that he is worthy of your whole heart, soul, and mind. Thank him for inviting honest devotion instead of a divided, outward-only faith. Thank him for patiently teaching your whole life to love him.

Grateful for a God Worth Loving

Lord, gather my scattered attention and heal my divided loves. Teach me to love you with all my heart, soul, and mind today, and let my thoughts, desires, and decisions follow you. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

An Undivided Heart

Pray by naming one distraction of the heart, one pressure on your life, and one pattern of thought. Ask God to bring each one under his loving rule and to reshape it into whole-hearted love.

Pray for Whole-Person Devotion

Pray for people whose loyalties are split; for families, students, and leaders who need focused devotion; and for a church that helps one another love God with undivided attention.

For People with Divided Loyalties
