A Prayer to Release Competitiveness

Those who lift themselves up will be brought low, and those who humble themselves will be lifted up.
In today's episode, @@nicolet_bell reminds us that we live in an ultra-competitive world where winning, achieving, and being seen as “the best” often take priority. But God invites us to live differently — to put others before ourselves and to let our humility point people toward Him.

Reference: Luke 14: 7-11

Prayer: Lord, forgive me for allowing my pride and competitive nature to affect the way I treat other people. Enable me to lift them up, to help them recognize their worth. Replace my pride and selfishness with Your heart for others. Don’t let me look down on anyone. Help me to model this for my children and encourage them to respond in the same way. In Your name, amen.
