This is the audio from the February 3, 2023 live social media broadcast of encouragement and prayer by Impact Prayer Ministry’s director, Tom Lemler.
“You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.”
Ephesians 4:22-24 (NIV)
This week’s prayer emphasis is focused on living with a new attitude. When we allow the Spirit of God to transform our mind, He gives us a new attitude. However, that new attitude requires our diligent attention in order to keep it aligned with the attitude that was found in Christ Jesus.
“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
Hebrews 12:2 (NIV)
As you pray this week, ask God to help you examine the attitude you live with as you interact with Him and others. Pray that you would keep your gaze fixed upon Jesus to learn an attitude of joy as you accomplish the good works God created for you to do. Pray that your attitude of joy would be ever-increasing as you follow the example of Christ.

In prayer,
