Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Titus 1:7-8
For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not self willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre; But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate.”
TITUS 1:7-8
DEVOTION
Based on Titus 1
Paul’s instruction to Titus outlines the high calling of a spiritual leader. But these qualities aren’t just for bishops—they’re a blueprint for anyone who wants to honor God.
Leaders in the Kingdom are to be marked by humility, patience, self-control, and love for what is good. These traits come from living close to God, not striving for image but cultivating Christlike character. God entrusts His work to those willing to be stewards, not owners. True leadership is not about control but service—reflecting God’s heart in all things.
A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
ADORATION: Lord, You are the ultimate example of holy leadership—gentle, just, and full of truth. I honor You for Your perfect character.
CONFESSION: Forgive me for the times I’ve led with pride, impatience, or selfish ambition. Too often, I’ve focused on appearances more than heart alignment.
THANKSGIVING: Thank You for calling me to growth, not perfection. Thank You for the Spirit’s work in shaping me to lead and love with humility.
SUPPLICATION: Father, refine my heart. Help me walk in integrity, self-control, and kindness. Let me lead—at home, work, or ministry—with a posture of service. Make me a lover of truth and a steward of Your grace, worthy of your calling on my life.
PRAYER
“For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not self willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre; But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate.”
TITUS 1:7-8
Dear Lord, You have set clear standards for leaders in Your church. For that, I am grateful because the flock of God can be vulnerable to corruption. Its shepherds must be people of integrity! But I also know these qualities do not just apply to pastors and ministry leaders. These qualities apply to anybody who desires to be effective for the Kingdom of God. Purify my heart, strengthen my character, and refine my conduct for Your glory, Lord. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏🏾
