September 20 -- John 8: 34-40 "Jesus answered them, 'Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin. The slave does not remain in the house forever; the son remains forever. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. I know that you are offspring of Abraham; yet you seek to kill me because my word finds no place in you. I speak of what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have heard from your father.' They answered him, 'Abraham is our father.' Jesus said to them, 'If you were Abraham's children, you would be doing the works Abraham did, but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did.'"
Prayer focus for today: Today's prayer request is simple, yet deep -- pray that Christ would never say to you, 'my word finds no place in you.' Jesus was very plain to those he spoke to in today's scripture; pray today that He would never say to you that you are just full of religion but have none of Him in you.
