Hollywood Prayer Network On Betrayalنمونہ

## WOE TO THE BETRAYER You can't betray yourself too often, or you become somebody else. Ed Harris > PRAY: Dear Lord, I ask that you help me never to betray You. Please give me the strength to do what You ask of me, regardless of how hard or scary or sacrificial it may be. I want You to be proud of me and I want to   stand firm as a faithful follower of Yours. I don't want to act like I'm obeying You, but turn on You instead. Lord, help me to learn from Judas and never to be like him. Thank you for giving me what I need each day to be faithful to You always. I pray in Jesus' name, AMEN! > REFLECT: We always think that it will never be us! We'll never be the one to let God down. We'll never be the one to turn on Him, deny Him, disappoint Him or run from Him. But we are all only one step away from disaster at every moment. That's what keeps us needing the Holy Spirit, because we can't stay pure, honest or faithful without His help. When have you betrayed God out of fear, disappointment, anger or frustration? And did you try to trick Him by doing it with a kiss? We all have the potential to be Judas. We just have to be honest with ourselves in order to avoid disaster. > ACT: Focus in on one time that you may have turned against God—in words or actions—and ask forgiveness. Don't be ashamed, for we all do it at some point. It may be obvious or subtle, but either way, if you can recognize it then you have less of a chance of ever doing it again. God forgives us but we learn and grow by coming to Him with our sins   and even our shortcomings. After asking forgiveness, ask the Lord to have His Holy Spirit nudge you the next time you're tempted. He'll answer that   prayer and you are on the road to becoming more Christ-like.
